    [SOLD] 72 Plymouth Scamp 360 mag Los Angeles

    Yeah I’m pretty gutted to sell it tbh, but the honest truth is that I haven’t driven it much at all since the lockdown hit a couple years ago. I stopped commuting (WFH) and the drag strip was closed for a period of time. Then I got a couple other projects going and it’s just been chilling in...

    Magnum swapping the 72 Scamp!

    No new updates but still running and driving. I’ve done a few small things here and there though. The pandemic shut down the drag strip for a while and I haven’t had to commute so it hasn’t been getting driven as much. I also picked up an 85 Omni GLH I have been building on the side as well. My...

    Cutting off Crank counterweights

    I really would have thought this thing would have vibrated itself to death. Wonder how this would go on a SBM? Who wants to try it?

    QA1 strut rods hitting sway bar end links

    I have not resolved it yet, I kind of gave up figuring I need to weld some tabs on after trying like 3-4 different end link combos. I have just been letting the sway bar hang out up there and hasn't caused me problems. It will be interesting to compare back to back when I finally get it...

    Magnum swapping the 72 Scamp!

    a couple small updates... I was finally able to get an H pipe installed and my exhaust welded up. The final result is a much better sound and no more leaking clamps (which was quite annoying). Here she is over the pit: I also installed a quick fuel 750 mechanical secondary carb that I...

    Magnum swapping the 72 Scamp!

    I also had a chance to take doggo for a ride. Trans temps are staying around 150 now which might be a little too cool, but the weather hasn't kicked up yet into the 90s much. We shall see.

    Magnum swapping the 72 Scamp!

    Trans temps would climb up a bit (220ish in the pan) so I thought it would be a good idea to install a cooler. I went with the Tru-Cool M7B, which I guess is the same as a B&M supercooler. After finding all the correct fittings and such I was able to find a spot for it and fab up some...

    Magnum swapping the 72 Scamp!

    I was able to put some miles on it this weekend and it was a blast driving it again. The bumper is back on too :D

    QA1 strut rods hitting sway bar end links

    Haha that was what was in my head but too cumbersome for a title My ride height is a bit low from having the k member out recently so I’m going to dial ride height in and see what happens. When it was apart:
