mopar jon Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 Hello Starquest Club, Ive been into old mopars for a long time, and always wondered what Chrysler was thinking with this car. Now i know, they are alot cooler and rarer then i realized back in the day, lower production then a Dart or a Duster and based on what the MSRP was, its no wonder not many sold. Anyways, this one needs to have the engine redone, seems to be missing some parts, so ill keep you posted on the progress, and if anyones has parts cars, let me know.Darn, wont let me upload the pics, ill have to figure this out..... Good Day to All Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89PalermoSHP Posted September 20, 2013 Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 Hi Jon, welcome. These are not mopar or Chrysler really other than the name. The car is 100% Mitsubishi. Be sure to take some time reading through the FAQ section. Every question about these cars has been answered twice at least and if you try to educate yourself a little on a topic, people will be much more willing to help out. Best of luck with your project!

designguy007 Posted September 21, 2013 Report Share Posted September 21, 2013 Way to go jon! you just bought an awesome car, NEVER, NEVER, let it heat up, I had one 15 years ago and warped the aluminum heads, It was never the same, I don't care what you do to it! had to sell it!

mopar jon Posted September 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2013 I used to get these cars into my shop when they were new for stereo and alarm work and all this was long before the big craze for fast japanese cars. Its amazing how certain things over time take on a new respect, these cars were truely ahead of their time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasQuest Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 Welcome. Surprisingly you can still find a fair amount of oem Mitsubishi parts for these cars. Also randy aka "Dad" on this site has a lot of oem parts. Rockauto.com is a great source also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mopar jon Posted October 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 Ive found a few things over the years from rock auto for other projects, so ill check them again, I also bought a 87 quest parts car last week that still has a few goodies left on it. It was a former Sakura Racing/Motorsports car that spent a couple years racing in Puerto Rico. I was told it has all kinds of nice mods to the 2.6 engine, just need to get this 88 quest finished first before i dig into that one.
