Guest dkrom Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 If my memory serves my correct. Chrysler tc by massarti are rare, but not all that valuable! I would sell you my burgundy 89 8v auto. But I do not want to give it away, also I am on the east side of the Mississippi and I don't think you want to come and pick it up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelbyone Posted January 29, 2014 Author Share Posted January 29, 2014 depends on a number of things..need to know the overall condition, dings, scratches, how many owners, repairs etc...and detailed pics from inside&out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostymosty Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 There is always the way overpriced triple black one at the dealer's in Pacoima. Been advertised for over 2 years on ebay and craigslist. Missing headlight switch knob and brake pedal pad along with severely dried out leather. Price lowered to 2400 over a year ago and still double what it is actually worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelbyone Posted January 30, 2014 Author Share Posted January 30, 2014 yep, I saw that one - I think they have it since summer 11! looks very bad all around.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostymosty Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 There is also a black/tan leather TC on AutoTrader at a dealer in Orange for 4000, looks like a typical 2500 car and I think the trip odo is reading zero so I suspect stuck odometer.

shelbyone Posted January 31, 2014 Author Share Posted January 31, 2014 it also looks like the front bumper is pushed in a little in the drivers side...check out the pics...http://www.penningtons-inc.com/detail.aspx?id=3135233&PrefID=0&.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garnet & Gold Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I agree with the front bumper having been pushed in and it looks like the antenna is not the electric factory unit and the power seat switches in the center console are loose and not attached.

ghostymosty Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 I still think it is a 2500 car plus or minus depending on mechanical condition. You are already familiar with the ABS system but the v6 has a few concerns that are different than the 4cyl. The v6 can tend to burn oil from bad valve seals (new cat converter at each smog check is a possibility), the cam plugs on end of heads can pop out letting your oil run out, and the transmission is computer controlled and has to relearn how you shift after the battery is disconnected.

shelbyone Posted February 1, 2014 Author Share Posted February 1, 2014 ok..good to know...I will drive downthere tomorrow after looking at a yellow tc in glendale...I did not know that the v6 has so many issues...so I better check for oil and ask for maintenance details...so when I disconnect the battery, I will not be able to drive at all?? or how is it suppose to learn to shift again>?> I am still concerned about that pushed in bumper...and if its possible to pull it out again...

shelbyone Posted February 1, 2014 Author Share Posted February 1, 2014 wow...just looked up the relearning procedure...is there any way around it once the battery is disconnected? wow..makes me think twice ..if I want a v6 or a 4cyl turbo like I had before...

Garnet & Gold Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 My yellow TC is a show car and is only driven on weekends. I have one of those quick disconnects on the battery with the green top on it. So far the learning process has not been a problem still runs good at 80 MPH. There can be another problem with the trnsmission controler where it will not shift beyond second gear (bump shift). That can cause you to locate a new controller at a cost of $200 approximately. So on your test drive make sure you put it on a highway over 55 MPH. The only thing I hate about doing this is that I have to locate my radio station again.Fender and fascia. Where the fender top and fascia come togetther at the wheel well there should be a screw which since it has been pushed in must be gone. There is also a fender slider underneath the fascia which keeps the fascia from flapping at highway speeds. I put one back in line with a crow bar underneath the car, but I have also seen Larry Carlson of TC Parts sit down in front of the car and pull it back into place. If you have to replace the fender slider because it is broken the cost can be $100+ - $150 and hard to locate. On the front of the car the sliders are different from right to left while the rear sliders are identical right to left. There are only 3 bolts on the slider but you need a deep well socket.

ghostymosty Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Bumper issue could be as simple as the bumper shock didn't come back out all the way (common on this little used part) and just needs to be pulled out by hand. Just put a battery backup in the cig lighter to retain memory if you are going to disconnect the battery, if you need to disconnect all power then the relearn process just means the transmission shifts weird for a short time while it relearns your driving habits but the car is still drivable. The engine may also stall out for 3 or 4 restarts immediately after a battery disconnect then all is well after that. Most people disconnect ONE wire on the transmission controller (I forget which one) to help with its one little issue, there are posts on here that deal with that.I thought yellow was OUT! You could always look at "no accident" yellow TC that's been on craigslist for awhile.........photos show a repainted passenger quarter panel and a messed up front bumper on the driver's side. Not sure the seller's word could be trusted after that whopper of a lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelbyone Posted February 2, 2014 Author Share Posted February 2, 2014 thanks for the input!! saw the black tc , started it up and knew right away that its a piece of junk..white smoke, metallic clonk noises when accellerating slowly to 1000rpm..checked the codes: 3-2-4 ( EGR??) oil leaking from heads, the instrument cluster was tampered with ( might not even be the original one) middle console switches bracket broken in half..only 3 switches worked...I did not even want to drive it....and yeah, I looked at the yellow one just out of curiosity...very bad yellow paintjob and and code 3-1-3-3 oh well...onto the next...

Guest kreeves Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 We have a white/tan '91 conv runs great, garage stored and babied. Mileage in the 30,000 range, and yes the odometer does work, so does the AC. It was my dads who gave it to my daughter who is going off to college and not taking a car. We don't need to keep it in our garage paying insurance and what not on it... But we are in Ft Worth, Tx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
