    I got the car in 2009 when I was 15. It had been sitting in an abandoned garage in Johnston, RI for over ten years. Original slant six auto, black with white interior.

    340 going to its final resting place this weekend. Scamp now has full brakes including e brake. Managed to find the elusive engine mounts in Carlisle this year. Welding an ear on for the drivers side and good to go!

    Its TIGHT.15x10 6.5" bs 11 inch drums, stock length 8 3/4. 7" bs would have been the way to go but they fit with some creative trimming I managed about 3/8-7/16 to what was left of the lip. A little close for comfort but will manage. And yes, just a test fit. Directional tread is important.
