PT cruiser idea...ya'lls thoughts please

[Willowbilly3]

I saw one a few years back stuffed full of Chrysler Hemi power! Looked a lot like the one Dr Crank posted, but it was still four door. The guy said it was the second one that he had built, the next one he was going to use convertible doors on, or just put a hard top on a convertible, which ever was easier.

We had one, it was a fun car to drive, cornered like a slot car. Was pretty peppy for a 4 cyl, too. It was a POS though, plagued with Chrysler wiring problems. It was the only vehicle that I ever had that when it fouled the spark plugs, they had to be replaced because they would never fire again, even after cleaning. [S I let it sit for a month one time because it wouldn't fire, cleaned the plugs two or three times, nothing. Gave up and put a new set in, fired first round! [S

Sounds more like a Champion spark plug problem, why I quit using them decades ago.
As for the PT, they all need a rainbow sticker in the back window IMO.

Years ago I was working with a guy and he kept telling me about this new car that was coming out and how he had to put down a deposit on it and wait 6 months before delivery because they were so back ordered. I never had heard of a PT Cruiser but thought it must be something very cool.

And then I got to finally see one....................[S[S

My ex has one and I have driven it a few times. Not a horrible car, but certainly NOT COOL.
