Picked Up Another A Body This Weekend

-
Sweet score !!!
I think I saw someone selling that Parchment front seat on here to replace the busted upholstery...
 
Dang - that's one clean little bugger! I'd get it roadworthy and drive the wheels off of it.

Picked up this sweet 73 Scamp this weekend. 48,000 original miles. I needed this car like I need a hole in the head. This makes 4 A Body's at the house, Starting to think its a sickness, couldn't resist.
Found it on Offer Up months ago. The seller was going back and forth on if he wanted to sell it or not.
Sentimental car that his wife drove. I had been talking to him on the phone for 4 months, and he finally let it go yesterday. Its a 6 cylinder car, wish it had a V8, but that's the way it goes. All original paint and interior.
Plans at the moment are to clean it up, and change the fluids. After that, we shall see.
Thanks for looking.

Clean!!!
 
Leave the slant in it and drive it. What a cool car!
 
Not sure why my post was deleted from this thread. Weird.
 
The anticipation always builds when looking for the build sheets. Success !!! :)

Got the thing in the air today, and much to my surprise an 8.25 3.21 with a Sure Grip !!!
Got to be kind of rare in a /6 car ?
For a slant car, the owner checked some good boxes. :)

Had a chance to change the wheels up. I had a set of
14"x 6" big bolt steel wheels,and tires. Added a set of Plymouth Division dog dishes. Car is shapping up.

Oh Lucky Day !
Just picked this 360 Magnum 320hp crate motor. Complete with a 904, motor mounts, linkages, etc. Plans are to do a cam/intake change, and let her rip. Thanks Dave !!!!
