Montalban Looked Classy With the Woodie 1983 Chrysler LeBaron �€"
Car and Driver, October 2020 The K-Car family saved Chrysler from
near-certain doom and stayed in production well into the 1990s, and
the LeBaron was the most opulent of the original Ks. Ricardo
Montalban gained his greatest Chrysler fame as the Cordoba's
smooth-talking pitchman in the middle 1970s, but he continued to
sell Chryslers all through the following decade. Here's a
sunset-toned... advertisement for the 'woodie' early LeBaron Town &
Country convertible (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfUzMiCgAWo),
with Montalban and his convertible against a backdrop of the Town &
Country station wagon and the original 1948 Town & Country
convertible. Offered here is a 1983 Chrysler LeBaron Town & Country
Convertible in white and wood-style trim over brown. One of the
millions of the Lee Iacocca-championed K cars that literally saved
Chrysler Corporation from extinction, this top-of-the-line example
even included the talking car messaging option. Originally owned by
a Chrysler vice president and currently showing 51,370 miles on its
odometer, this MOPAR historically significant convertible has
traveled fewer than 1,400 miles per-year on average since new. (And
yes, the upholstery is fine Corinthian leather.) The LeBaron's
exterior has been well-maintained by past owners. The original
white paint retains excellent gloss and the woodie trim retains its
like-new look and feel. There are no dings, dents, or other
noteworthy damage to any body panel, sheet-metal or wood. (To best
assess the quality of the paint and trim finishes, please be sure
to view the close-up photographs of the car in the accompanying
gallery.) The power convertible top in white is free of rips or
evidence of unusual wear. The white-and-chrome continental kit,
faux-wire-wheel, spare-tire carrier is original to the car and
shows no scrapes, patina, or other flaws. So, too, the rear-deck
luggage rack, headlight trim, and formal-style front grille.
Plastic-covered bumpers front and rear feature vinyl and chrome
trim, all of which shows no evidence of even minor impacts. Cabin
glass and lighting lenses are clear and unmarred. Factory wheels
with Chrysler Penta-star-embossed full-faux-wire-wheel covers are
mounted with thin-stripe whitewall tires. Inside, the brown
Corinthian-leather upholstery really does steal the show. The rich,
brown leather surfaces-including matching, pleated door-panel trim
and expansive convertible boot-display a rich color and an
attractive patina from age. Showing only light creases, the seating
surfaces are free of wear marks or other damage of any sort. (The
center armrest shows wear from regular use.) Darker-brown vinyl
upholstery trim adds to the rich look. Dark-brown carpeting
(protected with rubber mats) covers the cabin floors,
rear-seat-area walls, and lower door panels. Woodgrain trim accents
on the doors, dashboard, and console add to the Eighties-elegant
look. A dark-brown, 2-spoke, Chrysler-logo-branded steering wheel
frames the square-design, brown, padded dashboard. Instrument
lenses are clear and graphic markings-including on the federally
mandated 85-mph speedometer-are crisp and fresh-looking. A series
