Vehicle Description
1971 Plymouth Scamp. Due to the popularity of the Dart Swinger,
Plymouth decided to release their own version of the 2-door hardtop
in 1971. The design combined the Dodge Dart Swinger hardtop body
with a Valiant front end and 1970 Dodge Dart duel tail lamps. This
1971 Plymouth Scamp is powered by its rebuilt 360 CID Magnum V8
engine, backed by a 904 3-speed automatic transmission, and running
to a 8 3/4' rear end with 3.55 Sure-Grip gears. Pop the hood and
you will see a very clean engine compartment that will sure to make
others envious at cruise ins and car shows. A few performance
upgrades under the hood include: March Billet Serpentine Belt Drive
System, MSD Digital 6 Ignition, MSD Pro Billet Distributor, Holley
4 Barrel Carburetor, and Headers. The transmission is a new 904
automatic transmission with a 9.5' torque converter (2,800 stall)
built by Cope Racing Transmissions with only 2000 miles on it. The
interior is original with the exception of new carpet, a new
Legendary front bench seat cover, a custom gauge panel with
Autometer Sport Comp gauges, and a new floor mounted B&M Quick
Silver ratchet shifter. A few other performance upgrades include:
3' dual exhaust system with Summit Turbo Mufflers and H-Pipe,
Driveshaft safety loop, 12 Gallon Fuel Cell, Holley Electric Fuel
Pump, Stainless Braided Fuel Lines, and QA1 front adjustable
shocks. A nice set of 15' custom steel wheels painted to match the
car sit on all four corners fitted with new Plymouth dog-dish
hubcaps. Options on this 1971 Plymouth Scamp for sale include: Seat
Belts, Vinyl Interior, Hub Caps, and Radial Tires. More recent
work: new idler arm, new pitman arm, new tie rods, rebuilt gear
box, updated electrical. The BAD: It is the nature of A-Body Mopar
Muscle Cars to have a drive train that has some slop. Rebuilding
the gearbox, tie rods, idler and pitman arm helped some and cost me
an arm and a leg. I would recommend the new owner to do a rack and
pinion conversion so this car drives like new**Vehicle Location is
