About This Item

LesPar

LesPar -- a pun on the Chrysler "MoPar" brand name -- is the ignition (and everything else) key to a 1994 Dodge Caravan.

We bought the van new in March, 1994, and drove it until we had it towed to the junkyard in June, 2017.  After twenty-three years, it had well over 200,000 miles on it.  We don't know exactly how many miles because the speedometer cable broke at one point and we didn't get it repaired for a couple of years. 

While not our primary geomobile, the Caravan visited its share of caches, mostly in mid-Michigan.  It took our two kids to school every day, went on weekly trips to the grocery store, and was the primary hauler for bicycles, woodworking equipment and tools, and many other things.

This was one of the very last Dodge Caravans made with a manual transmission.  In fact, when we bought it new, you couldn't order a manual transmission from the factory any more -- they had been discontinued.

The caravan is now scrap, probably melted down to make razor blades by now, but the key "motors" on.

Finally moving Lespar on his way, he has traveled all over Maryland to the mountains to the ocean. He has picked a few Keychain along the way. Lespar was missing his tag, so I melted the tracking # in the back of the Michigan Keychain. Happy travels!

I am sure you could have rebuilt that trans. I have a 98 wrangler and have rebuilt almost everything on it including manual trans and engine.
