The 1970-1982 Chrysler 160, 160-GT, and 180 were compact cars produced by Chrysler Corporation as part of its efforts to compete in the burgeoning small car market. While not as widely known as their contemporaries, such as the Ford Pinto or Chevrolet Vega, these Chryslers offered a unique blend of practicality and performance. The 160, introduced in 1970, was a basic, economical model designed to attract budget-conscious buyers. It was powered by a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine, paired with a three-speed manual or a two-speed automatic transmission. The 160-GT, launched in 1971, added a sportier touch with dual carburetors, a performance exhaust, and a sporty interior. It even featured optional bucket seats and a floor-mounted shifter for a more engaging driving experience. Finally, the 180, introduced in 1973, featured a larger 1.8-liter engine, offering more power and a smoother ride. Despite their relatively small size, these Chryslers offered surprisingly spacious interiors, capable of accommodating five passengers comfortably.

While these vehicles were not known for their performance, they were praised for their fuel efficiency and reliability. The small displacement engines ensured good mileage, particularly important during the fuel crises of the 1970s. Chrysler also focused on building these cars to a high standard of durability, with tough, well-engineered components that stood the test of time. However, despite these positive qualities, the 160, 160-GT, and 180 were ultimately overshadowed by the popularity of Japanese and European imports, which offered greater fuel efficiency and driving dynamics. Production ended in 1982, leaving behind a legacy of reliable and practical automobiles that remain popular among enthusiasts and collectors today. The Workshop Repair & Service Manual is a valuable tool for anyone wishing to maintain or restore these classic Chrysler models, offering comprehensive information and detailed instructions for everything from routine maintenance to complex repairs.
