(1996) The Chrysler LeBaron (or Chrysler Imperial LeBaron) was originally a classic luxury car of 1930s manufactured by Chrysler which competed with other luxury cars of the era such as Lincoln and Packard. LeBaron was one of the many prominent coachbuilders in the 1920s to provide bodies for luxury cars. It was founded in Bridgeport, Connecticut in 1920 by Thomas L. Hibbard and Raymond H. Dietrich. It was later purchased by Briggs Manufacturing Company of Detroit in 1926 and operated as a subsidiary. LeBaron supplied exquisite custom bodies for various car companies such as Chrysler's luxury Imperial line, Duesenberg, and Cadillac. LeBaron's last projects for Chrysler were the Chrysler Newport, a super-streamlined dual cowl phaeton with an aluminum body and the remarkable 1941 Chrysler Thunderbolt, a sleek roadster with concealed headlights and a retractable metal hardtop styled by Alex Tremulis, who would later style the legendary Tucker of 1948.[1][2][3][4] Chrysler purchased Briggs Manufacturing in 1953.[4] Two years after the Chrysler Corporation introduced the Imperial as a separate luxury division, LeBaron was designated the top of the line Imperial models in 1957 through 1975.[1][2][3][4] The Chrysler LeBaron was re-introduced in 1977 as Chrysler's lowest priced model, and the name was used on various Chryslers until 1995. Resurrected to add cachet to the Chrysler Division's new mid-sized entry, the "LeBaron" name has since been applied to a total of 5 different cars built by the Chrysler Division: The 1977–1981 M-body Mid-size LeBaron sedan, coupé, and wagon The 1982–1988 K-body Compact LeBaron sedan, coupé, convertible, and wagon The 1985–1989 H-body Mid-size LeBaron GTS hatchback The 1987–1995 J-body Personal luxury LeBaron coupé and convertible The 1990–1994 AA-body Mid-size LeBaron sedan Contents 1 1931–1941 2 1957–1975 3 1977–1981 4 1982–1988 5 1985–1989 LeBaron GTS 5.1 Trim levels 5.2 European market - the Chrysler GTS 6 1987–1995 coupé/convertible 6.1 1993 restyle 6.2 Trim levels: 1987–1995 6.3 In popular culture 7 1990–1994 sedan 7.1 Trim levels 8 Mexican market 9 Safety 10 References 11 External links [edit] 1931–1941 Classic generation Production 1930's Assembly Detroit, Michigan, United States Bridgeport, Connecticut, United States[1][2][3][4] Class Luxury Body style(s) 2-door coupe 2-door convertible (roadster) 4-door sedan 4-door convertible Layout FR layout Platform Chrysler Engine(s) 385 cu in (6.3L) Straight-8 125HP ("Imperial 8")[5] and others Transmission(s) 3-speed manual 4-speed manual Related Chrysler Chrysler Imperial LeBaron has a long history with Chrysler. In fact, it is one of the longest running nameplates in Chrysler history. The LeBarons started in 1930s during the automobile's Classic era and competed directly with the luxury brands of its day such as Lincoln, Cadillac, and Packard. In the mid-thirties, Chrysler added a radical new "Art Deco" design shape, known as the Airflow Imperials, to the Chrysler line. The high-end CW series were all supplied by LeBaron. The design features were considered advanced and perhaps ahead of their time. However, the shape was a bit too radical for buyer's tastes and non-Airflow models outsold Airflows by about 3 to 1. Raymond Dietrich, co-founder and former stylist at LeBaron, was hired in 1932 to be Chrysler's in-house stylist. Dietrich restyled the Airflow line and Chryslers moved to more mainstream styles. As a result of the poor Airflow sales, Chrysler design actually became quite conservative for the next two decades. Auto manufacturers continued to build up their in-house styling departments and bodyworks, with the result that LeBaron became less important to most of its customers for design ideas and bodies. Toward the late 1930s, LeBaron/Briggs built more bodies for Chrysler and fewer bodies for Ford. Chysler became their biggest customer, with additional bodies built for Packard, Hudson, and Graham-Paige. During the late 1930s and early 1940s, the LeBaron name and division became less important for Briggs, although it remained a division of Briggs until the Chrysler buy-out in 1953.[3][4] LeBaron's last projects for Chrysler were two concept cars: the Chrysler Newport, a super-streamlined dual cowl phaeton with an aluminum body and the remarkable 1941 Chrysler Thunderbolt, a sleek roadster with concealed headlights and a retractable metal hardtop styled by Alex Tremulis, who went on to later style part of the legendary Tucker of 1948. Only 6 of each were made.[1][3] 1931 Chrysler CG LeBaron Town Car, Left-Front. Was owned by Mrs. Chrysler.

LeBaron was designated the top of the line Imperial models in 1957 through 1975.[1][2][3][4] The Chrysler Imperial LeBarons were made to compete directly with competitor's luxury brands such as Lincoln, Cadillac, and Packard, just as they had since 1930s. The last model was made in June 1975, a victim of dwindling sales and the 1973 oil embargo.

This first Chrysler LeBaron was a rear-wheel drive M-body, a rebadged Dodge Diplomat with deluxe trim and equipment sold from 1977 to 1981. LeBarons were available in coupes, sedans and station wagons. A Police version was available in 1981 only. The wagons arrived in 1978. All wagons had the Town & Country wood panelling until a plain base wagon was added in 1980-81. 1981 LeBaron 5th Avenue Limited Edition; one of 654 produced The car received a major refreshening for 1980, with new front and rear fascias giving it a more upscale appearance. The rear roofline was also made shorter and steeper. The 2-door coupe received new smooth rear sheetmetal, that replaced the old curved rear panels. On the inside, enhancements were made to the interior to make it more luxurious. For 1981, a limited edition "Fifth Avenue" package was available; only 654 LeBarons were produced with this package. The LeBaron model name was moved to the new front-wheel drive K-platform for the 1982 model year. The former M-body LeBaron sedan became the Chrysler New Yorker; it could still be equipped with the Fifth Avenue package. The M-body wagons and coupes were discontinued after 1981. Chrysler's M-body sedan was ultimately renamed Fifth Avenue for 1983 and it was produced through 1989 little changed from the vintage-1980 LeBaron sedan. See Town & Country and Fifth Avenue sections for more info.

It was available in sedan, coupe versions. In 1982, it was released in a convertible version, bringing to the market the first open-topped domestic vehicle since the 1976 Cadillac Eldorado. A station wagon version called the Town and Country was added as well. A special Town and Country convertible was also made from 1983 to 1986 in limited quantities (1,105 total), which like the wagon featured simulated wood paneling that made it resemble the original 1940s Town and Country. Despite being mechanically identical to the Aries and Reliant, its fascias looked much more like those of the larger E-body sedans. This generation featured Chrysler's Electronic Voice Alert, a computerized voice which admonished drivers with phrases. 1986 Chrysler LeBaron Coupe 1985 Chrysler LeBaron Convertible The LeBaron was facelifted for 1986 receiving rounder front and rear ends to improve aerodynamics. Coupes and convertibles were dropped for 1987, being replaced by the all-new J-body LeBaron released that year. The sedan and wagon continued with minor change until 1988. A larger LeBaron sedan based on the Dodge Spirit and Plymouth Acclaim would arrive for the 1990 model year. A modified 1986 Town and Country convertible was prominently featured in the 1987 film Planes, Trains and Automobiles. A 1983 Town and Country convertible was also famously featured in various episodes of the sitcom Seinfeld; George Costanza purchased it because he believed it previously had been owned by Jon Voight.

As a 5-door hatchback still derived from the K-car, the GTS (and the similar Dodge Lancer) was more of a performance vehicle, than the softer-tuned K-car LeBaron sedan. In base configuration, the car was powered by Chrysler's 2.2 liter inline-4 engine, later replaced by a 2.5 L TBI version generating 100 hp (75 kW). A turbocharged 2.2 L engine producing 146 hp (109 kW), was also available. The GTS moniker was dropped for 1989, the final year of this vehicle's production, after the K-based LeBaron sedan was discontinued.

One of them was the "Chrysler GTS", which in fact was a rebadged version of the Dodge Lancer ES. Sales figures were extremely moderate.

The all-new LeBaron looked modern and aerodynamic compared to its boxy predecessor. It featured headlights hidden behind retractable metal covers, a waterfall grille, steeply raked windshield, full-width taillight lenses (though only the edges actually lit up), and curved (Coke bottle) style rocker panels. In Mexico, these models were marketed as the Chrysler Phantom. Available engines were the stock 2.2 liter and 2.5 liter, naturally aspirated or turbocharged, and for the 1990 model year a 3.0 liter Mitsubishi V6 became available, although the Mexican Chrysler 300 also offered the same 2.2 liter turbo engine as used in the US market Dodge Spirit R/T. The LeBaron was equipped with a trip & fuel economy computer and full instrumentation. For 1990, the LeBaron's interior was refreshed, featuring an all new dashboard, gauge cluster, door panels, and center console design. All of the new components were designed to be smoother and more flowing than the comparatively blocky 1987-89 interior style, making it more in tune with the "aero" revolution of the early 1990s. 1992 LeBaron coupes and convertibles could be ordered with a new "sport package", which featured a monochrome appearance including body-colored grille, accent stripe, and decklid logo. The package also included 14-inch "lace" style wheelcovers and a black strip below the taillights in place of chrome, with special blacked-out window moldings on coupe models.[7] [edit] 1993 restyle 1993–1995 Chrysler LeBaron convertible In 1993, the LeBaron's exterior was slightly restyled. The hidden headlamps of the 1987-1992 models were deleted in favour of less costly aerodynamic replaceable-bulb headlamps, new wheel styles were made available, and all models got the amber rear turn signals introduced on the deluxe 1992 models. New for 1994, was the "Bright LX" decor package. It included a "bright" chrome grille, "bright" chrome badging, and "bright" chrome molding inserts, as opposed to being body-colored on the GTC. Available engines were naturally aspirated 2.5 L and turbocharged 2.2 and 2.5 L versions of Chrysler's I4, and the 3.0 L Mitsubishi V6 making a 141 hp (105 kW) in this application. The coupé was discontinued after 1993, and the convertible after 1995, to make way for the new Chrysler Sebring coupés and convertibles, for 1995 and 1996 respectively. [edit] Trim levels: 1987–1995 Throughout its lifetime, the LeBaron convertible/coupé was available in many trim levels. For its first year, the LeBaron was available in Highline and Premium, typical Chrysler trims at the time. The number of trims grew, peaking in 1990, with six available. After that, the number decreased until just one trim level remained for 1995. 1989 interior 1994 interior (aftermarket radio) 1987 Highline Premium 1988 Highline Premium GT 1989 GT Turbo GTC Turbo Highline Premium 1990 GT GT Turbo GTC Turbo Highline Highline Turbo Premium 1991 GTC GTC Turbo Highline Highline Turbo Premium LX 1992 base Turbo GTC GTC Turbo LX 1993 base GTC LX 1994 GTC Bright LX 1995 GTC LX [edit] In popular culture In the Seinfeld episode The Mom & Pop Store, George Costanza is set to buy a 1989 Volvo 240 Sedan, but instead the car salesman talks him into buying a 1989 LeBaron convertible, said to be previously owned by actor Jon Voight, as George liked the idea of driving Jon Voight's car. He is later disappointed when he learns that the prior owner is John Voight (with an "h" in his first name), not the actor. However People who know cars, know it is impossible for the Lebaron to be an 89, because that body style was done away with after 1986 In the movie Freddy Got Fingered main character Gord Brody played by Tom Green, drives the Lebaron his father buys him at the beginning of the movie. Throughout the first and second seasons of the TV show Veronica Mars, the titular character drives a Lebaron convertible. The alternative rock song "Short Skirt/Long Jacket" (2001) by Cake describes an efficient business minded young woman who is "trading her MG for a white Chrysler LeBarron". The hit 1995 movie Jumanji featured a 1992 Chrysler LeBaron convertible, of which Mrs. Thomas (the real estate agent) drove. It is seen losing control and hitting an ambulance. Thereafter, Alan, Judy and Peter use to escape a giant mosquito. The car driven by Jeff Bridges character in The Big Lebowski was originally supposed to be a LeBaron but the car could not fit John Goodman's character and was changed to a Ford Torino. Rapper Kanye West refers to once have driven a Lebaron in his 2010 album. In the movie Cheaper by the Dozen Ashton Kutcher drives a Lebaron. He says, "Hands off the Lebaron, I just had it detailed."

It differed from the Dodge Spirit and Plymouth Acclaim, as well as the European Chrysler Saratoga mostly in detail and trim choices. Theoretically, the Acclaim was supposed to be the more mainstream version, while the Spirit was the sportier version, and the LeBaron was the luxury version. In reality, however, there was considerable overlap amongst the three in available trim, equipment and features. The top-line LeBaron Landau model offered a padded vinyl half-roof with smaller "formal" backlight. All LeBaron sedans came with a standard driver's side airbag, could seat up to six passengers, and had a relatively large trunk. In 1993 the LeBaron sedan received new rear lights, which incorporated the reversing lamps previously located in the bumper fascia. The LeBaron sedan was discontinued after the 1994 model year, and was replaced in 1995 by the "Cloud Car" Chrysler Cirrus. 1994 Chrysler LeBaron LE [edit] Trim levels base - 1990–1992 LX - 1992 Landau - 1992–1994 LE - 1993–1994 [edit] Mexican market M and K-platform cars were assembled in the Toluca, Estado de Mexico (Mexico) facility. The M-platform LeBaron was sold in Mexico from the 1978 to the 1982 model years. The K-car LeBaron was also produced in Toluca and was sold for the 1983-86 model years. There were no K-platform convertibles, at least none right from the factory. The Phantom was the Mexican-market version of the J-Body LeBaron Coupe. There were no convertibles of the J-body 2-door for the Mexican-market. Phantoms were sold with the same options as the Lebarons in the U.S., and frequently at a higher trim level. Note: the difference between Turbo I and Turbo II engines is that all Turbo II engines had an intercooler and all Mexican J-bodies carried the Turbo II engine;[8] in Mexico, the 4 door AA-body Lebaron 4-door sedan was called the New Yorker as well as LeBaron. Main versions of the 1987-94 Chrysler Phantom include: 1987–1988 Sporty Version: 2.2 Turbo II engine, Speaking module, leather seats & interiors, analog instrument cluster, Five-speed (manual transmission), 15-inch aluminium road wheels, only offered for 1987 and 1988.
