Sitting at the Albany Airport. There's a guy out here doing touch and go's in a WWII vintage fighter plane. It's pretty cool.

I do not need more junk cars. I am actively selling off junk cars that I wont do anything with. I am reformed I tell you. I've seen the light, hallelujah
BUT
Guy at work asked if I still bought cars. I did say yes. He says he has an "80's econo box" in his yard and it has a three digit price tag.
He had two shiat box pictures.
Thats a freaking Mitsubishi Starion or a Chrysler Conquest TSI if I am not mistaken. Turbo four cylinder, manual transmission, rear wheel drive. Also likely a money pit.
Ooof.
I may have to go look.

Dude. That's a Starion. I'd be intreagued for 3 digits. The little detail on the B-pillar makes it. Otherwise could be a Dodge Daytona.

You are not helping my cause!
To be fair, three digits means $850, but three digits is three digits!
All he told me is that its been sitting for a long long time and he is clearing the family land. 2.5 hours from me.
I think I gotta go look, yeah?

If it actually has the manual, and is a factory widebody car, I think you have to go look.

If it's a Starion TSI..... Might be worth the money pit.

Manual, rough interior is what it was described as. How do i know/tell about the wide body?

I love starions. They were the beginning of Diamond Star Motors and had a variation of the 4G63 motor or the 4g54 both good motors. One of the hinderances was the sohc vs later Dohc. Great little cars though.

Yep. $850 is what he said. So, Starion and the Conquest are the same car then, yeah?

The widebody was either factory fenders or a fiberglass kit. Should be obvious which is which.

Yes. Same car. Part of the Dodge / Mitsubishi partnership of the 80s/90s.

Whelp, you guys convinced me. I'll go this weekend if the weather holds out. Not in my wheelhouse, but sounds like I cant lose money if I decide I didnt want it.

Daytona was different car. Also a 4 banger turbo. But the mopar variant of the mitsu Starion was the Chrysler Conquest.

What’s funny is I actually saw a mint Daytona today which the car itself is cool but nothing spectacular. Just rare to see in such good shape. Was going to talk about it here and came into a Starion conversation. Lol

More appropriate would be the 5.25” floppies with Apple II games, or the set of 6 3.5” disks for ms dos, but I had this one too at some point. Might still be on a stack of CDs in a box actually.
