Chrysler LeBaron Buyer's Guide

The Chrysler LeBaron is one of the most misunderstood cars in American automotive history. Dismissed by purists during its K-car years, the LeBaron is now appreciated as an accessible, stylish classic — especially the open-top versions. If you want a personal-luxury or convertible experience from the 1980s without Cadillac or Lincoln prices, the LeBaron delivers in spades.

What to Check Before Buying

✓

Test convertible top through three full open/close cycles —

✓

Inspect front subframe and engine cradle for rust (probe with screwdriver) —

✓

On Turbo: check for oil leaks at turbo, verify intercooler condition —

✓

Test all BCM-controlled electrics (windows, locks, mirrors, dash) —

✓

On V6: verify timing belt service history or plan immediate replacement —

✓

Check hydraulic top fluid reservoir and look for leaks under rear shelf —

✓

Inspect door bottoms and rocker panels for rust (especially northern cars) —

✓

Verify A/C compressor functions (R-12 cars may need retrofit) —

Common Issues

Convertible hydraulic top mechanism failure is the number one issue — rebuild kits exist but labor is involved. K-car front subframe rust is a deal-breaker if severe. BCM electrical gremlins affect 1987–1992 cars. Turbo models need careful inspection for oil leaks and overboost damage. V6 timing belt failure is catastrophic on this interference engine.

What to Look For

Look for a single-owner car with documented maintenance — these were often second cars and may have very low miles. A dry convertible top mechanism is worth a $500–$1,000 premium to avoid the repair headache. On Turbo models, a clean intercooler and no blow-by on the PCV is a good sign the engine wasn't abused. M-body cars with original paint in dry-state provenance are the rarest find.

Price Guide

Convertibles command a strong premium over coupes and sedans. A driver-quality 1990–1993 convertible runs $3,500–$6,000; concours-ready examples $10,000+. Turbo coupes $4,000–$9,000. M-body V8 coupes $6,000–$12,000 when found. Budget $800–$1,500 for a convertible top mechanism rebuild if needed.

Did You Know?

The LeBaron Convertible was the first American mass-market convertible since the Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz bowed out in 1976. Lee Iacocca personally starred in the TV commercials. The 1987–1995 coupe's retractable hardtop was a genuine engineering feat for a mainstream car. The LeBaron name traces to Raymond H. LeBaron, Chrysler's legendary chief designer of the coachwork era.
