Default Dodge Aries/Plymouth Reliant Wagons

To those who like these wagons: There are presently two wagons available, perhaps a third. It is getting impossible to find good clean parts for these wagons. One is in Richmond, California; the other in a yard in Salt Lake City. There might be another one available; I'll have to check. There is an 88 Reliant Wagon in Tallahassee Florida. Just found: 82 LeBaron wagon. Same glass, liftgate,doors, steering column, radio, etc. Impossible to find items priced right would be the rear quarter glass, rear liftgate, rear liftgate heated rear windshield, any nameplates from fenders or liftgate and front grille.

As a longtime collector, I know how hard it is to find these parts at a reasonable cost. Sounding the alarm to anyone who likes these wagons to get this stuff quickly before it's crushed. If you need exact locations, PM me for reply. Thanks very much!!

I plug this into the VIN number identifier and it says not found: 1p3bp39k3hf138599

Trying to ID VIN and what's the motor. Seller says fuel injected?


I see 1p3bp39k3hf138599

What am I doing wrong?

1987 Plymouth Reliant K LE wagon

Are you plugging in lower case letters when you see upper case (capital) letters. The software may not be smart enough to correct that. I kind of doubt that they were putting in fuel injected engines in those vehicles in 1987. I think they were probably still using carburetors then, but I could be wrong. If it has a carburetor rather than a throttle body, it's not fuel injected. You should be able to tell by taking off the air cleaner and looking at it.

Mistake was mine, once I went to a Plymouth Vin Number decoder it worked. Just for the sake of not leaving a dead end:

Reliant LE 4 Dr. Wagon Engine 2.5L Gasoline Manufactured 1987 Plant Newark

Odd as it seems: 2.5L EFi I don't know if there were versions of this. But it is a Chrysler engine.
