1986 Plymouth Reliant TURBO Wagon
You could NOT order this car from any dealer but....
this one was made. Turbo was NOT an option in
the Reliant, but this is a factory made car!! Very Rare!
This car is thought to have been a military ordered car.
I was told there were only 40 to 60 of these made. |

This engine bay is mostly stock
looking. It is a T-1 turbo 2.2.
Update: now a 2.5 short block
from a 1989 turbo Caravan. |

Autocross? Yes the autocross car
was broken so the wagon went out
to play. Did pretty well! |

This is how the wagon looked when it was first found at a local muffler shop. Yes, it was ugly.
But what was with that hood? |
