This text was not translated, because it is originally in English So far in this series, Ive had no luck finding Chrysler Cordobas from the first couple years of production. Weve seen this 78 (which provided me with a beautiful Corinthian Leather garage couch), this 79, and this 80 prior to today, and now weve got a genuine, Ricardo-approved 1976 Cordoba.
I spotted this car during my trip to Southern California two weeks ago. Rust-free California car, right?


Well, sort of. The rainy winters in coastal California tend to keep the metal beneath vinyl tops moist, and cheap weatherstripping (i. e. , just about all the weatherstripping used by Detroit during the Malaise Era) tends to let water into the trunk. So, on cars like this youll see pristine quarter-panels and nasty roofs.


Check out the heraldry on the taillight lens. Such class!


Hmmm… the other taillight doesnt seem to match. Which one is correct for 1976?


318 or 360, you dont want to know the horsepower numbers. Move along.


Wire wheels and Radial T/As!


Fiat needs to bring back the opera light.
