Hey All!
I’ve had multiple threads going about Lebron, my 1979 Chrysler Lebaron Medallion 318/904 that I saved from being scrapped for $300 bucks about 5 weeks ago.
Lebron is because thats what every parts kid calls it when looking up parts even after I’ve just told them it’s a Chrysler Lebaron!
At first I was calling it Dirty-G (Dirty Grandma!) but Lebron really stuck!
Long story short-
Lebron was advertised on OfferUp for $500 and Pops and I flew down to Tuscon to grab it.
It haven’t been driven in years but the engine turned over with a brake over bar. The PO lost the keys so he offered it to me for $300 so home it came!
It’s super solid everywhere (I’m guessing there is lots of rust under the padded vinyl top but it’s getting removed anyway!)
This thing is loaded!
Power windows
Power locks
Cruise control
Power dr seat
AC
Trunk release
Wiper Delay
15” styled Ralley wheels
Needless to say my other M Bodies have been kinda strippers so I’m excited about one that’s loaded, even if it’s seen much better days.
I’m building this Lebanon to be my daily work vehicle so I can keep the miles and bodyshop funk out of my truck. And I’m trying to build it on a budget so I’m making do with as much as possible and just improving cosmetics now that I’ve gotten through most of the reliability/drivability issues behind me. (Kind of!)
I’m looking for advice and opinions!
I’ve got a vision of how I would like to see Lebron when it’s finished and I’m looking forward to seeing what you guys think along the way!
Thanks and Let’s Go!!
