This meticulously cared-for, garage kept 1989 LeBaron Convertible represents the third of its kind to find a home in the owner's cherished garage. The moment he came across the listing boasting a mere 25,000 miles on the odometer, curiosity got the better of him, and he had to see it for himself. With a CarFax report confirming the owner's account, the allure of this automotive gem only intensified. A labor of love ensued as he invested several thousand dollars into the vehicle, diligently replacing aged components to ensure its roadworthiness and safety. Every effort was made to bring this classic beauty back to life and have it ready for the open road. However, life took an unexpected turn when his trusted mechanic relocated, leaving him with unfinished tasks. Now, with a heavy heart, the owner faces the difficult decision to part with this LeBaron, in the hopes of finding a new caretaker who can carry on the work required to bring it to its full potential. This LeBaron Convertible represents not just a car, but a piece of automotive history, and the owner is eager to see it find its rightful place with someone who can appreciate and complete the few remaining tasks it needs.

The LeBaron badge appeared as early as 1931 on a series of cars by prolific American automaker Chrysler. LeBaron was a coachbuilder, and as was common practice in the early days of the automobile, coachbuilders would make the bodies for many manufacturers while they concentrated on the mechanicals and running gear. Later on, the LeBaron nameplate would be seen in the mid-sized, as well as personal luxury car segments as a proper Chrysler product. This particular 1989 Chrysler LeBaron Convertible is a 25,000-mile example of Chrysler's personal luxury car that's reportedly undergone some recent maintenance to keep it going strong. If you've been intrigued by these machines, read on to discover what they bring.

Exterior and Interior

This 1989 Chrysler LeBaron Convertible sports a white paint job and a matching white convertible top. The current owner tells us that the convertible top motor was not working properly and needs to be replaced to ensure that it smoothly powers up and down, and for now he opens the top manually, the rear window motors also need to be replaced. The car is also said to ride on very good tires, so you needn't worry about aging rubber for now. Next, we must draw your attention to the headlamps because one of this generation's party tricks is the motorized covers for the car's dual headlamps. Painted in body color, they create a seamless and distinctive look when viewing this car face-on. Upon climbing aboard, you'll be greeted by a four-seat leather-trimmed cabin in a shade of red, better known as burgundy. We say four-seat, but in reality, this 1989 Chrysler LeBaron Convertible is best used as a 2+2, with the rear seats occasionally used to transport kids or smaller adults or as added luggage space. That's because the trunk is a tad small due to the motorized convertible top's stowage space and mechanism. Getting back to the cabin, the current owner has bought the conversion kit, so the air conditioner can be charged. We also see a classic-look stereo radio cassette player, and the current owner reports the 4 speaker stereo radio has bluetooth capability. We're also informed that the speedometer has been diagnosed, all cables and sensors seem to be in working order and all the speedometer needs to be recalibrated.

Engine

This 1989 Chrysler LeBaron Convertible comes with a 2.5L fuel-injected in-line 4-cylinder engine under the hood, making approximately 100 hp and 136lb-ft when new. An automatic transmission sends drive to the front wheels. The current owner reports that the car has received a new timing belt kit, water pump, radiator, front strut assembly, tie rods, rear shocks, radiator, front brake caliper hoses, and more. The engine's oil is said to have been recently changed as well.
