For sale is a restored 1972 Plymouth Scamp with its original drivetrain.

History: I purchased the Scamp from the original owner about 4 years ago. The Scamp is a California car and the owner parked it in his shed back in 1996 and didn't drive after that. There was no rust on the Scamp and the odemeter read 96k miles, which the owner said hadn't turned over.

Exterior
: The exterior was originally B3 blue with a white vinyl top. Most of the body was taken down to bare metal and sprayed with metal lock primer. There wasn't much dents to take care of and the body is pretty straight. I preferred the B5 blue color, so the Scamp was sprayed with several coats of PPG brand B5 blue. The paint was covered with several coats of PPG brand clear.  I preferred a black engine bay and trunk so that's why they are not painted the same as the exterior. The paint has about 5k miles on it and looks very good but has a few touch up areas since the Scamp is a driver. I have about a 1/3 of a gallon of the PPG B5 blue paint left, so if you wanted to paint the engine bay, trunk or fix the touch up areas you could. All the glass looks good, windows roll up very nicely and the windshield is new. All the chrome, bumpers and grill are original and are in good shape. New weatherstripping and new vinyl top. I have the fender and rocker panel chrome moldings, I prefer how it looks without them. I added the 340 hood scoops, dual black trunk stripes and the Cuda flip gas cap. The metal around the flip gas cap was not altered and you can be put the original gas cap back if you don't like the look of the flip top.

Drivetrain: The original 318 engine has been completely rebuilt with all new components and added a new Edelbrock intake and new Edelbrock 4 barrel carb. The original 904 automatic transmission was also rebuilt. The Scamp got dual Flowmaster exhaust and they sounds great. The rebuilt drivetrain has about 5k miles on it, runs great and you can drive the Scamp anywhere. The Scamp is an A/C car but I didn't hook up the A/C or its components, I didn't like how it looks on the engine. I still have all the A/C stuff if you wanted to hook it up but I don't know if it works or not.

Interior: Most of the interior is new, except for the seats and door panels. The seats and door panels are original and are in great shape with no rips or tears. The interior metal was originally B5 blue and received the same treatment as the exterior. Everything works on the Scamp except for the heater switch. I believe the switch is bad or since I didn't hook up the A/C maybe there something that wasn't hooked up. I really don't need a heater that bad in California, so I just hooked the heater motor to the map light toggle switch. The AM radio is not hooked up but works. There is a CD player mounted underneath the A/C vents with two speakers in the back and one under the dash. I have the original steering wheel.

Wheels: The Scamp has 17" Showwheels Streeters with Falken tires. The wheels have about 5k miles on them. I also have the original steel wheels, hubcaps and they have new tires on them.

On the last several pictures, you can see the decoded fender tag and the Scamp taken completely apart.

The Scamp has a clean California title and has it's original California blue license plates.

Ralph Gilles responds to Dodge rumors, says brand is 'here to stay'

Fri, 12 Jul 2013

This is why we love Ralph Gilles. While in Italy hanging out with a group of Viper Club members in Europe, the SRT boss took the time to respond to a question directed at him on Instagram in regards to the future of Dodge.
Recent reports have painted a bleak picture for Dodge, but Gilles defended Chrysler's full-line brand by stating that the rumors are, "all rumors, Dodge is here to stay! It may get more focused going forward but not killed!" The idea of a "more focused" Dodge brand could lend some credibility to reports that the Grand Caravan and Durango are on their way out, which would leave Dodge solely as a car, or car-based, automaker.

2015 Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack

Fri, 24 Oct 2014

We all knew That Kid. As a freshman, he was a big kid, overweight but surprisingly strong. Still, he was often picked on for his size. Then, he chatted with the football coach, who convinced him that his true calling was on the team's offensive line. After a season on the freshman squad and a summer of two-a-days, this mild-mannered, husky high schooler returned for his sophomore year as a big, imposing, solid piece of muscle. Needless to say, the same bullies that picked on him were praying he'd forgotten about them as a 10th grader.
That's the V8-powered 2015 Dodge Challenger. It arrived on the scene with a max of 425 horsepower and a bit of a weight problem. It completed its proverbial freshman year with a nice 2011 refresh, where the SRT8 was bumped up to 470 hp, but it still had some work to do.
Enter 2015, and fresh off three months of constant burpees and wind sprints, the newest Challenger is as big and powerful as it's ever been, but it's now got poise and potential, and my goodness, it's fun in a way that Dodge's muscle car has never been.

Fri, 31 Oct 2014

Mopar is heading to the SEMA show in Las Vegas with a fleet of customized vehicles that appeal to enthusiasts of all stripes. There's a Dodge Viper ACR concept that follows in the lineage of the supercar's great road racing past, and a custom Ram ProMaster that might just be the ultimate outdoor party machine.
We got an inside look at Mopar's cars that will be on display at the show, which also include a Dodge Challenger T/A concept, two crazy Jeeps and a Ram 2500 Outdoorsman that could change the way you camp. While these are some of our favorites, Mopar is bringing plenty to SEMA, so let us know your top choices in the comments section.
