1971 Plymouth Scamp [Down On The Street]

| среда, 30 сентября 2009 г.

Welcome to Down On The Street, where we admire old vehicles found parked on the streets of the Island That Rust Forgot: Alameda, California. Here we go with yet another Chrysler A Body.



We've seen numerous representatives of the Plymouth Valiant family in this series, including this '61, this '61, this '65, this '65, this '71, and this '73. Only the last one was a Scamp, and we have yet to see a Duster.


In 1971, the Scamp was the top-of-the-line, two-door hardtop Valiant. You'd pay more for a Duster 340- and rightfully so- but the 318-equipped Scamp was priced at $2,685. Compare that to the $2,476 V8 Dodge Dart Demon, which was mechanically identical… or the 302-powered $2,523 Ford Maverick Grabber. Meanwhile, the Datsun 510 coupe sold for only $1,990.


Here's another location with two DOTS cars located within sight of one another; that's the white '60 Cadillac Coupe de Ville across the street.

Nice Price Or Crack Pipe: 1965 Plymouth Sport Fury For $39,900? [Nice Price Or Crack Pipe]

| суббота, 26 сентября 2009 г.

The vast majority of you feel that $5,300.83 is too much for a Renault Le Car, but what happens when you consider a super-rare, numbers-matching Detroit classic… for more than seven times as much?

That's what we've got here; it's a car that only the most maniacally anti-Detroit gearhead wouldn't love. It's a one-of-three-made, build-sheet-included, 426 Wedge-powered 1965 Plymouth Sport Fury. Now, the car show judges won't like that $10,000 paint job (to please them, you need to have period-correct factory orange peel, complete with embedded Old Gold ashes that fell off the gasper clenched in the jaws of the gnarled old Chrysler paint-shop dude who shot the original paint back in 1964), but everyone else will think it looks mighty sharp. The interior is original except for the carpeting, the engine and transmission have been rebuilt, and the whole package looks to be just beautiful. You'd definitely stand out from all those dime-a-dozen Mopar B-Body guys with this big Plymouth! Thing is, $39,900 is a helluva lot of money, especially now that everyone is preparing for the Total Collapse-O-Society™, researching good recipes for pigeon stew and rat tapenade and so on. What do you think?
