  1. Merrill--Hope to see you in Silver Springs in November. Were going to have a great time. Our cars are going to be on display inside the theme park. If theres anything we here in Florida can do to help you-just give us call.---Tim Cowan www.pentrident.com
  2. I have all the T/C's my wife and driveway can stand. And a nice 9' x 5' space in my garage for our new commuter car. 50mpg is a blast!
  3. Make the darned car ride and handle like it SHOULD have from the factory. http://www.fwdperformance.com/Store/Product.asp?IDCatalog=46&ProductID=294
  4. I live in Florida--and the dealer is very wrong. Not only that---LEGALY-it is titled as a MASERATI.Tell this idiot the vin number starts with a Z. That means the car was manufactured and imported from ITALY. There are 2 manufacture tags on the car. One in the glove box and one in the inside of the door. BOTH say MASERATI. Nowhere is there a manufactured by Chrysler tag anywhere on these cars. I have 3 T/C's with Florida titles-all are titled MASERATI. LeBarron indeed. If you need any help call 813.787.3784 Tim Cowan ------www.pentrident.com
  5. To each his own. If Mike is happy--I'm dancing in the street.
  6. Here are the pictures of Michael Key's T/C's in St.Louis--
  7. Mark--So sorry to hear your ill. After 30 years with diabetes I know how health things can come up. Just like Bob Hope said--"If you want to hear God laugh, tell him your PLANS"
  8. If you want a car you car modify for more performance DO NOT look at a 3 liter V6 T/C. I own all three models-- 2.2 sohc turbo.2.2 dohc turbo and 3 liter V6. The V6 can gain 15hp by replacing the muffler system with 2.5 pipes and a high flow muffler. Replacing the throtle body up to a 52mm can gain a few more hp. The most fun you can have with mods is replace the tranny with a five speed. I've seen 2 done. Be prepared to spent at least $5000 for the job. You need to find a donar 3 liter V6 5 speed Daytona-LeBaron-Shadow.
  9. How old are the wires? When I raced Datsun Z cars we had problems with intermident coils. They would test fine, but die on the worst place on the track. Turn 8 at Road Atlanta uphill comes to mind. Coils are cheep. http://www.fwdperformance.com/Store/Product.asp?IDCatalog=5&ProductID=695 http://www.fwdperformance.com/Store/Product.asp?IDCatalog=5&ProductID=160 http://www.fwdperformance.com/Store/Product.asp?IDCatalog=5&ProductID=1056
  10. Jasper-for those who don't know-is just like Dean Martin was. You don't ask"where's the party?" because wherever Jaspers at IS the PARTY!----Have a ballyall
  11. I have weighed 10 hardtops. All have been between 101 to 106 pounds.
  12. Headed to Palm Beach for Barrett Jackson. 3 days of 83-sunshine-walking around looking at millions of dollars in cars. Life is GOOD!

  14. This was a problem for 1989-90 T/C's with a TSB # I will look up later. The fix was the top windows used in the late 1991 model run. You can tell these windows by their "roll of ribbon" look where the early cars have the bevel. My sons early 1990 white car has a large burn spot on the white paint inside. It is about 6 inches long as the sun traveled and burned the paint. The car came from Dallas Texas.I have tinted both top windows and my son never leaves anything anywhere behind the seats.
  15. Hey Tony-Dont you need to vist your brother in Orlando? Going to the Tigers game today--84 outside-top DOWN.
  16. OK-now I know what to do with the 3 NOS shift knobs I have.
  17. Did yours go bad? How? If you find one make sure it has been rebuilt with ALL the upgrades. My son's went out 1.5 years ago and I had the choice you have now. I choose to have Lakeland Chrysler do the job. The tranny was shipped from Deroit with ALL the newest insides and came with a 3year/36000 mile warranty good at any Chrysler dealer. If you put in a used tranny and 2 months from now it dies-you still need a tranny and have put in or paid labor on 2 trannys.Final cost--$1250tranny--$750 labor--$2000 total.It's my 17 year old sons daily driver and needed to be bullet proof. It now shifts better than ANY V-6 T/C ive ever been in and averages 26mpg.I still think it was money well spent.IMHO

  19. The stock bov on the 2.2 has a very poor diaphram inside. After a number of years it is very prone to leaking boost vaccum and not completly doing its job. Rick Diago has a kit that uses a Porsche 911T bov. It works great,will last much longer than stock,and is not as loud as the 100db units the kids are using. http://www.rdiperformance.com/

  21. Here are the 16". They are 13.5lbs each. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/16-Inch-B...85348QQtcZphoto
  22. Here are the 15" rims I use on my T/C for time attack and auto-cross events. 10-thats right-10 pounds each. As for the price-in rims YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/15-trakli...tem160208171860
  23. Don--Things to do BEFORE you stick the Miller tool on a T/C. 1-Get the service manual. 2-Flush old brake fluid and replace with new per Manual instructions.I use DOT4 synthetic. 3-Replace Accumulator Ball with new unit. They are only made to last 8-10 years. 4-Check all electrical contacts and wires to do with the brake system as per the manual. After you have done ALL of these,if you still have a problem let me know and we'll see about getting the tester to ya. If you have any questions-drop me a line. Tim Cowan-- Pentrident.com
  24. Must have been AFTER you guys got done. When I drove it, it DROVE like the $500 Maserati!
