1986 Chrysler LeBaron Convertible

This 1986 Chrysler LeBaron Convertible was offered for sale at the 2007 Sports and Classic Car Auction presented by The Worldwide Group in Hilton Head Island, SC, where it was estimated to sell for $6,000 - $10,000. It was offered without reserve, with all proceeds going to charity. This car has a wheelbase that measures 105 inches, has a three-speed automatic transmission, and a four-cylinder turbocharged 2.4-liter engine capable of producing 125 horsepower.

In 1982 Chrysler introduced a newly redesigned LeBaron that varied greatly from the previous, M-body style of the first generation. This second version was based on the Chrysler K car platform and was available as a sedan, coupe, or convertible. On the LeBaron's tenth anniversary, a Town and Country station wagon was offered in limited quantities.

Probably one of the modern LeBaron's most famous appearances was on the 'Seinfeld' episode, which featured a 1986 LeBaron Town & Country, purchased by George and assumed to have been owned by actor John Voight.

This vehicle is painted in its original white with a tan interior and white top. At the auction, the car was sold for $2,475, including the buyer's premium.
