We have this car in our barn . . .
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. We don't have tires yet, so the photos I have don't show her at her best. However, BB-Dave had asked that I post the photos with the "barn find" look, too, so that's what I'll do. Once she's all clean and shiny, I'll post a few more. I noticed, above, I had mentioned her original miles as 35K - actually, it is 36,194, but not too far off the mark. It's not like she has gone anywhere in the past three years - actually, the day we drove her and parked her in the shop was 21 years ago (1996), and she had been driven very few miles after 1982, so I think, at this point, y'all would call her a "roller" - that is if we ever get some newer tires! She needs a battery, and the missing passenger-side mirror is on the front floorboard, because I know y'all will notice that stuff right away. Otherwise, she is intact, down to her "Mitsubitshi OK" factory label on the side window, and she's got a fighting chance of coming back to life. I don't think there aren't too many of these cars still around - at least that haven't seen some time on a race track at some point. Hope this brings back some memories for some of you, like she does for us!
