Gateway Classic Cars of Chicago is proud to present to you, the
1986 Dodge 600. Step back into the mid-1980s with this remarkably
preserved 1986 Dodge 600 Convertible. With only 39,081 miles on the
odometer, this "survivor" is a rare example of Chrysler's E-Body
platform, offering a unique blend of American drop-top luxury and
turbocharged performance.
Turbocharged Performance & Drivetrain
While most K-car derivatives were economy-focused, this Dodge 600
features the sought-after 2.2L I4 Turbo engine. Delivering a
spirited 146 horsepower, this boosted powerplant transformed the
600 into a "European-bred" sport sedan competitor. Paired with a
smooth 3-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel-drive
architecture, this convertible offers a nimble and responsive
driving experience that remains surprisingly modern.
Classic 80s Aesthetic
Finished in a timeless Off-White exterior with a matching
power-folding convertible top, this 600 radiates understated
elegance. The interior is a masterclass in 80s ergonomics,
featuring plush Red/Burgundy vinyl seating that remains in
excellent condition. The dashboard layout is clean and functional,
retaining all the period-correct switchgear and the classic
woodgrain-style accents that defined the upscale Dodge trims of the
era.
Chassis & Handling
Riding on factory-correct 15-inch cast aluminum wheels wrapped in
195/60R15 tires, the car maintains its original stance and ride
quality. The suspension-featuring independent MacPherson struts up
front and a trailing arm rigid axle in the rear-was tuned to
provide a balance of comfort for cruising and stability for
spirited drives. Power brakes (front disc/rear drum) and power
rack-and-pinion steering ensure that navigating modern traffic is
effortless.
Collector's Appeal
Finding a Dodge 600 is difficult; finding a Turbo Convertible with
under 40,000 miles is nearly impossible. This vehicle is perfect
for the enthusiast who appreciates the "Radwood" era or the
collector looking for a low-maintenance, high-visibility classic
that stands out from the sea of Mustangs and Camaros at the local
car show.
