  2. Hey Lou, you won't believe this, but on both of the TC's I've parted... no plastic liner.

    Sue, it could also be the door glass not sealing tightly at the top and water seeping in. Have someone sit in the car while you spray the windows and door edges to see where the water is coming from.

  3. The only thing I can imagine is the top was not secured well. Perhaps the windows were opened a bit allowing for "lift"? If the pull down mechanism failed, and the previous owner was unaware of the manual method to lock the back down, I can see how the back would have just been set in the holes. The front locks can also be tricky at times (read: stubborn) especially if the top wasn't seated properly to begin with. And yes, while that top is a heavy sucker, you get going at 65 mph with the turbulence on the back of a flatbed and you can definitely displace something that is parachute shaped.

    I feel your pain...

  4. I used to have 3 Imperials - 2 white 65's with 413's and a tan '66 wwith a 440.

    The original one was bought for $500 had the blue metallic leather interior but unfortunately it was far from mint. Acquired a second 65 with a near mint black interior for $400. Acquired the 3rd, the tan 66 for $200 with a perfect black interior. It had a seized 440 motor (teenage guy kept driving it when it overheated). Took the 66 interior and swapped it into the 65 with the bad interior and parted that car out.

    Wound up selling the two 65's to collectors when I realised I didn't have the time to keep a total of 5 older cars going. I would love to see pics of your LeBaron.

  5. The basic mechanicals are OEM Chrysler, except for the 16v engine with 5 speed.

    Things to look for:

    -ABS system light

    -Odometer working; the speedo works but the gears for the odo break so make sure it turns when you drive one.

    -Make sure if an aftermarket radio was installed that the wood grain trim surrounding it hasn't been cut/molested.

    -Make sure the pull-down motor for the hard and soft tops work
