1978 Chrysler Sunbeam 1.0 GL

We’re big fans of the unloved here at UK Barn Finds and this Chrysler Sunbeam ticks a few boxes; small engine, obscure and neglected!

This Chrysler Sunbeam 1.0 litre first registered on 2nd October 1978 just 4 previous keepers, last change of keeper as per V5 document 30th October 1981
