Runs great when cold. After warms up it falls on its face. It can only get to highway speeds if accelerating VERY slowly.

A friend ask me to help him find a garage in Chicago area that can help troubleshoot his '88 Dodge truck. He's having engine trouble and needs someone knowledgeable with 318 engine with throttle body. Anyone know a trusted mopar garage in Chicago area?

Surprisingly,it was driving fine.

:oops: I'm feeling lucky that my error didn't hurt someone or my car! I will get it aligned ASAP.

I think the front end is in good shape. I swapped drum to disk brakes last year and didn't notice anything out of shape. But perhaps I need to take a much closer look. Does anyong have suggestions what to look for? Thanks for that chart.

I installed new wheels tonight on my /6 '72 Scamp- changed from black to body color. See below for current and past wheel looks. I'm still not sure what I like best. I'm glad I did this because I realized how close I was to blowing out a front tire. Both were bald on the inside tread. I...

My bad, I didn't see that post.

Looks like some dealers are taking deposits for cars they are not likely to get for a long while...not that I'm in the financial situation to buy such a car....just sharing. http://www.usatoday.com/story/money/cars/2015/03/02/dodge-dealers-chrysler-fcaus-cheating-hellcat/24254979/

^^ that is the sad truth. BUT this thread explains why you can get truck help from this GREAT site.

Unfortunately, they are both Aug 6-9, 2015: http://www.moparnats.org/ http://www.nsra-usa.com/Events/default.asp#

I just booked my hotel for the street rod nationals 2015. This thread convinced me that it was worth going. Unfortunately, it is same dates as Mopar Nationals. Anyone else going in 2015?

What ever color you choose, I would consider adding a dark tint to all those windows! I think large vehicles with lots of big windows benefit the most (visually) from a dark tint job. I think it is a pretty cool wagon. A couple people have asked about thr color of the interior. I may have...

I love a lot of these ideas! I'm starting to second guess many of my original ideas. I trying to prevent myself from going overboard because this is going to be a functional guitar. Thinking about a tach/spedo somewhere, maybe decal rather than license plate, and I like the R/T knobs....

The garage here in Ohio makes it too cold to work on my Mopars this time of year. I've been buildling electric guitars during the cold weather. My current project is a guitar I'm modifying to be a telecaster esquire and I want it to have an automotive theme. This style of guitar was first...

Here are my two with steelies...

"so this thread is for your currently owned dream car.......what car do you have that when you look at it , you get complete joy and it keeps you in the hobby." My currently owned dream car isn't a car…..it is a truck. I always wanted an old truck and was blessed with a lot of help over the...

As someone who likes to be a little different, I'm so damned impressed I don't know what to say. Please, please, please write down the comments you receive at shows and share here.

Great car for a daily driver! If you drive it like that for a few years I bet you won't want to swap in a bigger motor.

Cool site, thanks for posting!

You did a great job on that truck. Real nice!

All these complaints about Mopar people, yet FABO is all Mopar people and some of the friendliest and helpful bunch of people around! I attend both "open" shows and Mopar-only events. I've encountered the snobby type at all events. Perhaps they want to be valued or liked because they have a...

I like green cars with black roofs. Some might suggest I'm biased...

Welcome, glad to have another '72 Scamp on the site. And like so many have said, SHOW US THE CAR!

Thank you all who took the time to respond to my post. It is interesting that a few more people voted FOR the stripe (in the poll) but the huge majority of the comments were AGAINST the stripe. It is funny how project ideas change once they evolve from ideas in your head into something real...

I'm just about finished with my '72 Plymouth Scamp. My final decision is regarding adding a bumblebee stripe. Another member suggested I post a poll about it. So, here it is. Below are 2 pics as the car is now, and 2 pics of what it might look like with a black bee stripe. Yes - Add...

Just got my car back from the painter and I am in the process of reassembly. I can't figure how to reattach the antenna and make it a snug fit. Can someone help? Do have these parts lined up correctly? Nevermind, I figured it out.

Man, both those Scamps look great! The red '73 looks sooo cool with the white stripe and the new wheels are an improvement from the rally wheels. The green/black '72 looks fast standing still! I'm biased, but I think the shape of the nose of that body style is at the top of the A-body food...

What a thrill it must be. You should frame the cover, better than most any trophy you could ever win!

Sweet ride! Congrats!
