Im not dying to sell it but I figure I'll test the waters here

71 Plymouth Scamp Started as a 22,000 mile slant six on the column car.
This car has no rust any were. It does have a dent in the front fender and rear valance panel but nothing bad that cant be fixed.

It has 90% of its original paint, I did repaint the engine compartment. its GY9 Tawney Gold Poly. The vinyl roof is original with a few tears under the rear window. Otherwise its in nice shape.

The interior is nice,Its Ember gold. Just needs seat covers,front arm rests and a few small items painted. It has a new carpet. Mint original dash and head liner. Nice door panels.
It is a bench seat, column shift car.

The Suspension is stock slant 6 stuff with 9" drums.Its still very tight. I replaced the power steering with a manual box and Flaming river adapter kit. The brakes need to be rebuilt or replaced.It does have new drums on it. I have a set of big bolt pattern spindles, rotors and calipers to go with it. You would need a set of upper control arms. It has a new master cylinder bolted to the fire wall. It needs new brake lines on the rear and from the prop valve back.

The rear is the stock 7.25" with 2.76 gears. Its in fine working order but probably wont last long The drive shaft has new U joints.

The car has a new fuel tank. 3/8" sending unit and 3/8" fuel line from Fine lines.

The motor is a fresh high compression 340. It was built by Dwayne Porter of Porter racing heads. If your a Moparts member he goes by Fast68Plymouth.

The motor was built by Dwayne for his personal car. It had 120 passes on it, No street miles. He ran 11.60s @ 117mph with it. The motor was pulled from his car, he did some more port work to the heads and intake and raised the compression another .5 point (from 10.5:1 to 11:1) and freshened the motor up, (new rings, Honed the block, bearings and gaskets)

The motor has no passes or miles after the refresh. It does have 10 or so dyno pulls. It made 478hp and 410ftlbs of torque. It will need a mixed fuel (10 gallons pump to 5 gallons of 110 race gas)

I love sleepers and yours definitely fits the bill!! :D Good luck with the sale...

Going for another A-body once it's sold?
 
Adam why are you selling your scamp? please tell me this wont be the end of SSS (secret scamp society).I have always loved scamps but landed up with a great 69 dart.I have read your posts with great interest.Thanks Kevin.
 
I hope your not thinking about a Mustpuke like the last time.


Good luck with the sale. By the way those are some nice door panels :toothy10:
 
No, Im looking for a 4 speed Dart driver. I'll take the money I get from this and put it aside till I can buy something nice.
 
If anyone is interested in the car as a roller
$3000, No motor or trans
$2500 for the 340
$650 for the 904 and 8" T/A converter
$500 for the TTIs

I wont sell the drive train separate unless the shell sells first. I would rather see it all go at once its just easier. Will consider trades for a 70-72 Dart. Duster, Demon 4 speed driver.
 
In keeping with the 340 thread... how can you ask so much for that car?

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

J/K I'd like that 340 for one of my projects...
 
LOL, Hey it comes with the heads and intake and for a few thousand more I throw in a clean car.
 
Some one asked what the car needs to be put on the street.

The passenger side header collector needs to be welded up.
Brake line from the front to rear. Brake line on the axle.
Brake shoes, hardware and wheel cylinders.
2 rear tires.

can finish the car for under $1000.
 
Good luck selling it,you might be better off parting it out though...
 
I have a deposit on it all ready. It should be gone next weekend as long as I get the carb back from Demon Sizzler soon.
 
And a front clip, repaint it, change the interior color. I didnt want to screw up such a clean original car.
 
plenty of early a-bodies out there that could be really fun to putt around in. i'm biased :)

Sorry to hear you are selling such a clean car. Hope you don't have any regrets or sellers remorse. Should go to a good home I'm sure.
