    Why are there so many Dodge Scamps?

    Ha! As a 22-year PCA member myself, I can say that there are as many hot-rodders in the Porsche world as there are purist snobs. Outlaws and racers are a big part of the scene.

    Why are there so many Dodge Scamps?

    At least the stripe is a sign that the owner doesn't know the difference between a Dodge and a Plymouth, and should probably be avoided. :p Anyway, this conversation is better than the usual "How big of a tire can I fit?" and "What oil should I use?".... :thumbsup:

    Why are there so many Dodge Scamps?

    For me, it's the fact that it's a stripe from a different brand of car... many younger folks might not know that while Dodge and Plymouth were sister brands under the Chrysler umbrella, they were wholly separate divisions and fierce competitors with each other. It seemed at the time that they...

    Why are there so many Dodge Scamps?

    I recently Google image-searched "Plymouth Scamp" and was slack-jawed at the number of Plymouth Scamps wearing Dodge Bumblebee stripes. I'd guesstimate that nearly 25% of the Scamps pictured were cross-dressed up as Dodges. Why is this? I know that Plymouth never offered a performance oriented...

    NOT a Nova...

    The blue one with the Nova SS stripes on it? Lol! :D

    What is the Plymouth Emblem called ?

    This is actually supposed to be a depiction of the Mayflower ship looking straight-on its bow. Plymouth never stopped using the ship motif.

    73, 74, 75, and 76 dusters and dart sports

    The Hang 10 was such a cool model, vastly improved with the B engine in it. :D The next improvement should be the removal of the Duster stripes. I'm no purist but seeing Plymouth stripes on Dodges, and Dodge stripes on Plymouths drives me crazy. Besides, the Hang 10 had some of the coolest...

    Hood insulation Poll. Yes or no?

    I always remove them.... and the half-century of dirt accumulation they're holding.

    What Are You Doing To/With Your Car Today?

    Dropped off my Satellite Rallyes for new BFGs today. It took me ages to find a shop who could actually get them! Turned out to be my trusty local Dodge dealer to the rescue. These shipping issues are messing up everything.

    What Are You Doing To/With Your Car Today?

    I spent five hours scrubbing 48 years of nicotine and filth off of the interior of my newly-acquired Satellite. Grosses me out that I actually drove the car before the cleanup...

    5.7 Hemi dealer says needs cam and rockers on driver

    Older Dodge Dakota. It still might eventually suffer from some of Chrysler's notorious aging electronic issues but it's easily converted to a carb and points smallblock if all else fails. :D

    5.7 Hemi dealer says needs cam and rockers on driver

    My friend's 2010 Ram 1500 had the cam/lifter failure too... dealer soaked him for ~$8000 (Canadian) for the repair. The second he told me that, I put my 2009 Ram up for sale and unloaded it.... it had the notorious "Hemi tick" already and I wasn't going to stand by and let Chrysler's shitty...

    "Call for price"

    Much like employers who don't state the salary of advertised jobs.... why would I waste my time sending a resume and attending an interview only to find out they're looking for slave labour?

    Aussie Charger/Valiant for sale in Canada Not mine

    I'd say it's steep... it's not even the performance version of the Valiant Charger, "just" a 340 car. And an automatic to boot....

    What is the Sexiest Mopar Ever Built?

    Funny, I think that the '70 Roadrunner is the worst one... too boxy, front and rear look the same, fake quarter scoop cooling what exactly? You can tell by looking at it that it was a rushed stop-gap model when the fuselage b-bodies were delayed one model year. The only saving grace in my...

    Beaker cars

    My first two Mopars back in the day were beakers... 73 Dart Custom and 75 Dart Sport. I loved that Dart Sport but will admit to coveting thy neighbour's Demon more than one or twice. :D I then had a couple of Demons, and now my '70 Swinger (love that face!), but looking back that Dart Sport was...

    When you know you are not dealing with a mopar person

    Every time I see a not-black Mopar with a black engine compartment, a Scamp with a Dart bumblebee stripe or a Demon/Dart Sport wearing a Duster stripe I know that I'm in the company of a non-Mopar person. Mopar people know better! :poke:

    When you know you are not dealing with a mopar person

    Could have had a 426 Wedge swapped into it at some point and the "426" part confused the poor guy into thinking it was a Hemi. Half feel bad for guys like that, half just want to slap them. :rolleyes:

    Where are all the short bed regular cab Dodge Rams?

    A friend of mine owned a regular cab, shortbox 4x2 for awhile. 4.7L auto... nice truck. I went for a Hemi crewcab 4x4 Hemi as I needed the truck to be everything... family sedan, cargo hauler, tow rig, winter beater, etc. For someone looking for a sporty reg-cab short-bed manual trans, the...
