Most of you likely know that the relationship between Mitsubishi and Chrysler went on for years and was responsible for any Chrysler/Dodge product with the Colt name, as well as the Challenger/Sapporo and, more interestingly, the Chrysler Conquest/Starion and Plymouth Laser/Eagle Talon.
Here we have one of the first results of their cooperation. These are interesting vehicles and could be on the rise, along with every other 70s Japanese car. This one has potential, but has needs.

$1,350 with no bids and reserve not met
04/30/2013 update: Ended at $1,905 with 14 bids and reserve not met. Considering the seller couldn’t be bothered to clean out the car, that’s plenty of cash for this gem.
Leopard floor mats? We like.
This one has a real transmission.
Seller is too lazy to clean out all the crap – always a good sign. Maybe he or she lives in it?
