It is a K-body, but it's a Chrysler LeBaron.
It was the first car I ever bought new. I still have it and it's got about 92K miles on it. I've done a bit to it over the years to make it more to my liking. I took out the 2.2L and put in a 2.5L turbo intercooled motor with a super-60 setup, performance head, and custom computer programming. It's running about 24psi boost. It has the Mopar Performance suspension upgrade, 4-wheel disc brakes from a Daytona IROC car. And a custom-built street-strip a-413 transmission from a Minivan. Lots of other performance and handling upgrades too. Looks like grandpa's car but will smoke plenty of Jeff Gordon wannabes--that's half the fun. It's waaaaaaay faster than any of my SAABs in a straight line, but doesn't handle anywhere near as well at speed.
The nice thing about Chrysler's K-platform is that you can swap just about anything from any car they were building at the time--Dodge, Chrysler, Plymouth, Shelby... It all just bolts right up.
