While the 1990s wasn’t the best decade for the US automotive industry in general, there were some pretty interesting brands that are dead now. Take for example Eagle introduced in 1988 by Chrysler as an enthusiast brand targeted mostly at the younger customer base. Its lineup consisted mainly of rebranded models from Mitsubishi, Plymouth, and Chrysler, but the marque had its own identity and charm. After the Need for Speed era, stock examples of Eagle cars are difficult to find, though.
One such original Eagle was recently discovered by the WD Detailing team. It is a Talon TSi with a turbocharged engine and an all-wheel drive. It’s been sitting abandoned for the last 12 years and – as you can see for yourself in the video at the top of this page – is currently missing some of its parts. The biggest issue is that there’s no engine under the hood and the original turbocharged four-cylinder mills for the Talon are now increasingly difficult to find.
