For sale is a restored 1972 Plymouth Scamp with its original drivetrain.
History: I purchased the Scamp from the original owner about 4 years ago. The Scamp is a California car and the owner parked it in his shed back in 1996 and didn't drive after that. There was no rust on the Scamp and the odemeter read 96k miles, which the owner said hadn't turned over. Exterior: The exterior was originally B3 blue with a white vinyl top. Most of the body was taken down to bare metal and sprayed with metal lock primer. There wasn't much dents to take care of and the body is pretty straight. I preferred the B5 blue color, so the Scamp was sprayed with several coats of PPG brand B5 blue. The paint was covered with several coats of PPG brand clear. I preferred a black engine bay and trunk so that's why they are not painted the same as the exterior. The paint has about 5k miles on it and looks very good but has a few touch up areas since the Scamp is a driver. I have about a 1/3 of a gallon of the PPG B5 blue paint left, so if you wanted to paint the engine bay, trunk or fix the touch up areas you could. All the glass looks good, windows roll up very nicely and the windshield is new. All the chrome, bumpers and grill are original and are in good shape. New weatherstripping and new vinyl top. I have the fender and rocker panel chrome moldings, I prefer how it looks without them. I added the 340 hood scoops, dual black trunk stripes and the Cuda flip gas cap. The metal around the flip gas cap was not altered and you can be put the original gas cap back if you don't like the look of the flip top. Drivetrain: The original 318 engine has been completely rebuilt with all new components and added a new Edelbrock intake and new Edelbrock 4 barrel carb. The original 904 automatic transmission was also rebuilt. The Scamp got dual Flowmaster exhaust and they sounds great. The rebuilt drivetrain has about 5k miles on it, runs great and you can drive the Scamp anywhere. The Scamp is an A/C car but I didn't hook up the A/C or its components, I didn't like how it looks on the engine. I still have all the A/C stuff if you wanted to hook it up but I don't know if it works or not. Interior: Most of the interior is new, except for the seats and door panels. The seats and door panels are original and are in great shape with no rips or tears. The interior metal was originally B5 blue and received the same treatment as the exterior. Everything works on the Scamp except for the heater switch. I believe the switch is bad or since I didn't hook up the A/C maybe there something that wasn't hooked up. I really don't need a heater that bad in California, so I just hooked the heater motor to the map light toggle switch. The AM radio is not hooked up but works. There is a CD player mounted underneath the A/C vents with two speakers in the back and one under the dash. I have the original steering wheel. Wheels: The Scamp has 17" Showwheels Streeters with Falken tires. The wheels have about 5k miles on them. I also have the original steel wheels, hubcaps and they have new tires on them. On the last several pictures, you can see the decoded fender tag and the Scamp taken completely apart. The Scamp has a clean California title and has it's original California blue license plates.

Leno recalls '90s showdown with Tim Allen and his mullet
Wed, Oct 7 2015Not many of us have buddies with garages full of classic cars, but that isn't the case for Jay Leno and Tim Allen. Of course, one of the advantages for two guys with such vast collections is occasionally getting to pit their cars against each other. The two comedians did just that in the mid-'90s with a burnout battle on The Tonight Show between Allen in a race-prepped Mustang and Leno in a drag racer. After some time away from regular television, Leno is returning to the airwaves with a Jay Leno's Garage series premiering on Oct. 7 (tonight) at 10:00 p.m. ET on CNBC. Let this clip serve as another taste of what to expect for the new TV show's mix of comedy and cars. After reminiscing about the old days in a gorgeous garage, the comedians get into two modern machines to reprise the classic challenge – after a little trash talk anyway. Don't worry because the YouTube series isn't going anywhere, though.
2015 Dodge Viper price drops $15k for 2015
Mon, 08 Sep 2014We recently saw updated specs and new trims of the 2015 Viper, but it looks like the folks at Dodge were saving the biggest surprise for last. Prices on all levels of the American sports car are seeing an immediate, across-the-board price cut of $15,000; even 2014 models still remaining on dealer lots.
The new MSRP for the 2015 Viper in its base SRT trim now starts at $84,995, and when the TA and GTS come to the lineup later next year, they start at $100,995 and $107,995, respectively. The move seems like a swing for the fences that might help to quell slow sales.
Obviously, current Viper owners might be somewhat peeved that their investment was just re-priced by the company. However, to assuage some of their concerns, Dodge is giving all fifth-gen owners a certificate worth $15,000 towards the purchase of a new one, which comes in addition to the price reduction.
Chrysler Recalling 870,000 SUVs For Brake Defect
Wed, Apr 2 2014Chrysler is recalling nearly 870,000 SUVs because corrosion may make the vehicles' brakes harder to use. Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs from the 2011 through 2014 model years are involved. Chrysler says crimp joints in the brake boosters can corrode if they're exposed to water. If the water freezes, the boosters won't aid braking as they usually do. Chrysler began investigating after some customers said their brakes felt too firm when pressed down. The company knows of one accident, but no injuries, due to the defect. Dealers will install a shield to protect the boosters for free and replace boosters that aren't working properly. Chrysler has since changed the design to make the boosters more corrosion resistant. Chrysler will notify owners of the recall, which involves 867,795 vehicles.
