LOL! Thanks! Maybe parting with her at all might be tough. One day, it's him - the next day, it's me. She was outside the barn just one day. I hadn't even finished cleaning the interior and walked down to the shop to finish the next morning. He had already pushed her back into the shop...

Hi, Marvin, I saw those same pictures of that Lancer Celeste you posted. It was from the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. In fact, the photos of that same car are what finally inspired us to try to do something with the Arrow! I think the Arrow had different names depending what country it was sold in...

Hi, Fellas! I wanted to post an update on our Arrow for y'all. We got tires for her Saturday and late this afternoon we finally pushed her out in the grass and washed her off! I'll post a couple of photos of her without the dirt layer. Tomorrow, I plan to tackle the inside. She has some...

I agree! That must be why it's so hard to locate a comparable value . . .

Dartnut, Holy Cow!! A lot of work, but what a cool way for your brother to continue to hang on to a car he must love!! Great story!!

You make our little princess in the barn shiver with fear!! Haha!!

So my husband just informed me that the button I remembered on the old Ford would have been the dimmer switch for the lights, not the washer fluid. So maybe there was an extra pedal down there at my feet I would pump for the water?? No matter - at 15, I was just tickled to finally learn how to...

Pishta, this is a five-speed stick with a 1.6 L engine. There was also an option for a larger 2.0 engine available on the Arrow. I previously posted a close-up of the CompuCruise installed on top of the radio spot in the dash. We still have the original radio somewhere. There is also a Clarion...

RPMagoo, Thanks for your concern. Just a little rain for us - all is well! abodyjoe, Price is still undetermined, but we are trying to research what a fair price might be. I am even learning new meanings for words like "roller", "old school radios", and "project cars". Thank you all for your...

Hello! I posted some pics of our 1977 Arrow GT earlier today and they included a dashboard photo. My husband installed (aftermarket) a CompuCruise suspended over part of the dash. (He would never butcher his original dashboard.) I think he ordered it from J.C. Whitney catalog. I swear there...

Hello, again! It's been well over two years since my original post. I finally took some photos of the 1977 Plymouth Arrow GT which I promised long ago I would post for you guys! And I've actually started calling around to find some used tires to put on her so we can push her out for a bath...

Hi! Sure, we will take pictures with all the dust on it, too - the "before" pictures, although it is pretty sad to see. Husband used to roll it out to wash it now and then, but stopped doing that when the tires got iffy. It is copper colored with black and orange striped decals. That magazine...

Thank you, SSVDP! Enjoyed looking at the BringaTrailer website. Thanks for the suggestion!!

Thank you for your reply! It hasn't been moved in 18 years, so it needs a wash before I post any photos, for sure. I'll get back on this site after that. Thanks again!

Hello, So my husband loved this car, bought it brand new in 1977 - a Plymouth Arrow GT. Then he got a company car and never drove it anymore, but couldn't part with it. It has 35K original miles. Now, 37 years later, it is just in his way, so I think he is ready to part with it (he's more...
