I've decided to sell this car so I can afford to buy a nice guitar. I already have another car and two trucks so its not like I need it...

Here are its specs, I'll add some photos later on from home.

Pluses:
Extremely well maintained
strong running slant six
A/C (disconnected, needs some reassembly and the belts hooked back up, recharged)
New vinyl top
Super clean interior, recently reupholstered...
cd player (i'm keeping the 6 x 9's so you'd have to add those)
rebuilt carburetor
less than 100 miles on new tires
recently pulled and cleaned out the gas tank to like new condition.

Minus's:

160, 000 (about half the lifespan of a well maintained slant 6...)

windshield wiper arm disconnected, needs new grommets to reinstall

minor cancer in the 'dodge place', along the leadline near the truck

dude loved his car so much he rubbing compounded the paint off the hood in some spots

Woodsy Wayne has seen the car and heard it run, perhaps he will post a testimonial for me......

A friend of mine had the same car, different name. It was a Plymouth Scamp. One day he is sitting at a stoplight on a date with the girl who would later become his wife.

This car pulls up next to him, and the guy says "Is that a Plymouth Scamp, with a slant six???"

Jeff says, "Why yes it is!"

The driver of the cars says, "Well, aren't you the thrill seeker!"

I still think of that story everytime I see a Dart or a Scamp on the road. Jeff drove that car for a long time, so he tells me, and he sold it for enough money to buy a Penn 600 downrigger!

Sorry for going off topic, but maybe somebody here knows Jeff or his buddy, "Flounder".

Anyway, they are great cars, and will run forever. It is nice to look into the engine compartment and actually recognize 90% of the parts, without a shop manual, and be able to work on them yourself.

It is a very clean car, and kept in very good shape!

It's hard to find any vehicle that old in that kind of shape.

And yes I heard it run, it purrs....
