1976 Chrysler Cordoba Review - When Chrysler Came Correct!

[@davidp2888]

I used to work with a guy who had a Cordoba. It felt like it could go through anything, it was so heavy and substantial.

[@markcoopers1930]

They could do this today. Take the leftover Challenger bodies in white, stretch out the trunk a tad, restyle the front and interior trims to look premium. Increase the sound dampening and maybe some little wood grain interior accents. And that thin stylized metal trim would be a standout today No hemi, no problem. It's a luxury cruiser, so it doesn't need to compete at the muscle car level. It just needs to be smooth and a sonorous exhaust that's not strained at high rpm. And they could stretch out that convertible top contract they have going for the last call challengers. They'd sell Tens! And all in Florida and Arizona.

[@markcoopers1930]

@@Brian_Eugene_Lee Fake news. Didn't happen 🤣. They brought back the Challenger in the modern market. And Chrysler's lineup will consist of just the Pacifica minivan once the 300 is gone in a matter of weeks. They need something and Chrysler-Dodge has a track record of not wanting to reinvent the wheel with developing platforms. They can't make the Challenger less powerful and more emissions friendly, but stick a Chrysler badge on it and like magic. A whole different demographic that doesn't care about cylinder count or hybridization. Without the muscle car demo restricting the powertrain options, restyling the challenger platform would cut time and cost, and all they'd really have to do is try to cut a bit of weight out of it. I've definitely heard of far worse and unrealistic suggestions.

[@rpsmith2990]

@@markcoopers1930 Why not? After all, the Challenger was really too big to be a proper competitor for Mustang and Camaro, and does what it does only through brute force. The wheelbase is as long as that of the Cordoba. The trouble will come when someone slides out of the "new" Cordoba and into the original and feel like they've gotten into a 911 it's so low, at less than 53 inches compared to the Challenger's 57.

I was 4 when my grandmother showed up with her first brand new car at age 56. A car she truly wanted the second she saw it, a 1975 Chrysler Cordoba with a smog-exempted non-catalyst 400. Cruise, A/C, velour interior, gold inside, and tilt. My grandfather had bad eyes and stopped driving that year, but he was a CB junkie, so he had that installed for their road trips. She LOVED that car. It became mine in 1996 with only 52,000 on the clock. Great memories, great car. Just floated down the road. Of course, I wish I had kept it.

[@jeffgolden253]

I ordered a brand new '77 Cordoba in early September 1976. I spec'd out everything I wanted on it. It didn't arrive until late October. It was exactly as I had spec'd it out, except it had dual chrome outside mirrors instead of body-colored painted mirrors. AND, surprise! ... While the '76 Cordoba with the Lean-Burn engine still ran on cheaper leaded gas, the '77 Lean-Burn required unleaded. (Bummer.) A few months later I noticed on the VIN tag that the car had been built in August 1976. How, I wondered, did Chrysler know in August 1976 exactly what I would order on my '77 Cordoba in September? The answer was that Chrysler was in such bad shape then that, to keep the plants running and avoid layoffs, they just kept building cars that no one had ordered and parking them in a big lot somewhere in Windsor, Ontario. When I ordered my car, before they built it they checked inventory, found they had an almost-as-ordered one parked somewhere, found it, and shipped it to me.

[@Rick-S-6063]

Chrysler called that build-them-and-stash-them system the Sales Bank. Their hope was to push them on dealers or, as in your case, to have cars on hand that would match up with something a customer had ordered. That system almost bankrupted the company by tying up so much money in sitting cars that didn't have customers ready to buy them.

[@jefferysmith3930]

This was the new “small” Chrysler at the time. As a kid, my best friend’s grandparents had this exact car. Not the type of car my family owned. We had a 1978 Honda Civic and a ‘74 Jaguar XJ6 at the time. Their Cordoba was always spotless and looked so regal …yet dated…sitting under their carport. My best friend’s mom had a gorgeous new black 1980 Buick Riviera with burgundy velour interior! That car was so choice! I felt so special riding in it. Even better than the Jag in some ways.

I owned a 1975 Cordoba. White but with a burgundy half vinyl top and burgundy velour interior. I just had the 5.9L 360 2bbl. Sufficiently peppy but not quick. Keep in mind it was a foot shorter than the full sized Chryslers and 800 lbs lighter. Also the radio looks after market. The carpet square in the trunk isn’t stock. Mine had fully lined carpet if I recall, so maybe it got moldy and was removed. Note the Cordoba had a more solid ride than its Ford and GM counterparts like the Grand Prix that was VERY floaty even for the time. I enjoyed the time I had the Cordoba, even doing some family vacations loading it up.

[@myronsamila7493]

Sweet! I have a '76 Cordoba - 360 w/console and "Corinthian Leather" finished in KY5 Yellow Blaze w/white Landau and white interior on black carpet and dash. It's a really sweet reliable cruiser - took it to Carlisle Chrysler Nationals from Toronto in 2023 and it was great on the highway. 17mpg 😀

[@PoesRaven73]

I owned a Cordoba back around 1982. It was an early to mid 70s model with the round headlights. It was black with mag wheels and raised white letters on the tires. My girlfriend called it The Batmobile, so I had a license plate holder that had that name on it. When I was sent to Germany, I had it shipped there. Driving it home from the port, people would slow down and take pictures of it! Loved that car! Made me feel like a celebrity!

[@aca2983]

For us of a certain generation, "personal luxury coupes" were our family cars. Cordobas were popular, although in the area I grew up in, and among my family circle, GM ruled the roost: Monte Carlos, Cutlass Supremes, and Grand Prix as far as the eye can see. We had a Buick Regal. I do recall my boomer dad and uncle, very much GM loyalists, saying the Cordoba was pretty though. The front is very similar to a Monte Carlo really.

[@gillesjacques1022]

I owned a 1977 cordoba, just oozed class, was comfortable on long rides. It was a nice maroon colour, with the vinyl strip in the rear roof panel, with a small rear window and a beautiful coach light. Mine came with an 8 track, had a cassette adapter, so I could play cassette tapes. I really miss that car, the salt really ate the car up, that sucked but it was nothing new.

(2) Buddies of mine were GM guys until '75 when they bought new '76 Cordobas, both white with the tan interior & the 400 V8 & both had aftermarket fine wire wheels. Gorgeous cars & they looked great from any angle. Chrysler sold them like crazy & it seemed in the greater Detroit area they were everywhere.

There were even quite a few Cordobas on the road here in the Flint area back during their heyday.

[@craigroberts3982]

My brother had one of these in the late 80's. It had the leather interior which I would refer to as "sticky" because of course the AC didn't work anymore and the midwest summers are hot and humid. Otherwise a fun car.

[@kravoglupa]

That white exterior brings back memories! Back in the late 1990s, when I was too young to think ahead; I bought a '76 Cordoba (WITH the Corinthian leather) for $300. Minimal body rust (didn't bother checking the frame), ran fine and drove so much better than one would expect from a 70's land barge...it must have had some heavy duty shocks or something. It would have been SO easy to restore, but my buddy and I threw some spray paint, and taped off some obnoxious racing stripes, and bounced it off guard rails and through corn fields...burnouts all over, hit trash cans at night...idiot teenage nonsense. It's one of my BIG regrets as far as cars go...I scrapped it when I was 19 because it had a bad fuel leak and I found something else to destroy. That interior is so awesome, I'd love to have that sweetheart! It's one of the cars I do a search on every-so-often in hopes that I can find a nice one in my price range, and "make it right". Comically, that $300 Cordoba is selling for about $3,000 these days in the same condition. Love the channel, buddy! '94 Fleetwood, '04 GTO, '02 Wrangler Sahara 5-speed, and a '73 Continental that's been sitting since 2014...I might have to hit you up sometime! Keep up the great content!

[@leeproffitt7429]

Back in ‘76 I bought a very slightly used ‘75 Cordoba. I loved the look and the way it rode and ran . It was a silver color with the burgundy red interior and vinyl top. It also had a factory sun roof, which to my dismay, began leaking badly after about 2 1/2 years. It started leaking after I had bought my wife a brand new’76 because I liked mine so much. It was white like the one in the video but it had a beautiful dark green trim in the interior and top, even the rims were green. It was gorgeous, they both had the “ rich Corinthian leather. My ‘75 had the 360 4 barrel, and the ‘76 had the 400 lean burn with that damn plastic carburetor. It worked quite well until about 48,000 miles but then it started warping and it made the car run terribly. Anyway I still kinda miss them, I just don’t miss the problems that came along, the interiors of both of them started just coming loose and falling when you least expected. I could go on, but just to confirm what I thought about them, dang! I sure wish I had them back!

[@philip4193]

This was my wife's first ever car when she was over in the US in the mid '80s as an exchange student, right down to the exterior colour & interior. The father of her host family was a used car dealer, and set her up with one of these because it was a "compact" and would be easier for a teenaged girl to drive than a full-sized car of the same era. She remembers it fondly as a big floaty boat that didn't particularly like to start on cold winter mornings (probably due to the notoriously troublesome lean burn/electronic spark systems).

[@rightlanehog3151]

This cannot correctly be called a land yacht because the Cordoba was classified an 'intermediate' . The Newport and New Yorker were the full-size Chrysler cars of 1976.

I had a75. They did come with trunk carpeting and a spare cover. I had all leather. 76 was the first year in the states where rectangular headlights were allowed. Cordoba had them in 77. It was a really nice car. Ryan needs the drivers side torsion bar adjusted.

[@310McQueen]

My dad had a '78 and I rode in it a lot. The '78 has the square headlights. It was confortable, and going by my dad's description, it was torquey. The performance and reliability of the car was increased significantly by replacing the engine's lean burn computer with duct tape. Nowadays you don't see cars that look this spiffy, but when I was a kid, every car looked like this.

[@michaellorenz7177]

Had a 79 twenty years ago. A lot of people hated the stacked square headlights of the 78's and 79's. The round headlights are often cited as the preferred look. The only thing I hated about them was correcting people who thought it was a Monte Carlo.

[@seed_drill7135]

The engine wasn’t smaller, it was weaker. Pre malaise era Chryslers normally came with a 383 or optional 440 (standard in New Yorkers). By ‘ 76 they were detuned and clogged up with emission controls and Chrysler’s infamous lean burn system.

[@markallen3293]

I had a '75 Monte Carlo, silver Landau top. I love the large headlamps, the car is almost flowing, curvaceous. m

[@floridaredneck]

Just to make a couple points since you said you weren't familiar with this car and I am. The velour seats are much more comfortable than the leather ones. My black one had red velvet seats (or whatever it was) and I wouldn't have traded that for the "Corinthian" leather if it were a free option. Also, someone stripped that rusted trunk. It came with fully lined carpet; look it up. I've been an auto detailer for 40 years (before it was a thing) and I can tell you no car of this caliber was ever made that was not lined in the trunk; that's absurd. You can see that you can smash the front end at least a foot before even touching the radiator. Thanks for the tour; beautiful car (except the trunk)!

BTW - in 1976, these had fully carpeted trunks. This one is missing the original carpet. Even the spare was covered in a carpet cover.

Absolutely love it. Chrysler should have brought back the Cordoba -- rich Corinthian leather and all -- and built it on the same platform as the 300, Charger and Challenger. Since the American personal luxury car segment is basically non-existent now, they would have had the market all to themselves and it would have been a sensation. A little kitsch is something that's sorely lacking in today's deadly serious car market; and a smooth, soft-riding luxury coupe would have been just the medicine the market needed to bring it back to life.
