I know there are quite a few closet FWD Mopar guys on here that can probably help me out. I am looking for a Dodge Rampage or a Plymouth Scamp for my next project. Really looking for something structurally sound...in other words not a total rot box.
If anyone has any leads, please pass them my way. I promise, you'll like what I am going to do to it. :-)
Thanks!!!!
Pat
How much are you looking to spend? There's one right here by my work, but I don't have any details on it. I think its 9 West auto sales in Martinsburg, WV.
I'll try to get more details and put eyes on it for you if you'd like.
I just posted one in the classifieds the other day. And it's in DC, so very close to you:

Ooh, can't wait to see what you have in mind.
A '73 Scamp was my first car (this was in '96), learned a lot working on it (cause it left me stranded at least once every other month) and that slant six had like a billion miles on it.
Best of luck finding one.

Needs to be challenge priced.... If you dont mind taking a look, that would be great. Thanks!

Thanks, but I looked at that one...definitely a lot rougher in person than in the pics. Very rusty/rotted, including frame rails. Too bad....it is 20 minutes from me.
Here's a few I found on Autotempest.

Definitely not Challenge-priced, but just in case anyone was looking for a Shelby Rampage:

I assume the "4" is a typo. There's been one parked in town in front of a jiffy joe's for a year or two. I'll take a poke next time I'm down that way.

Pat, thank you for looking at it and posting. I am no longer tempted. I owe you one.
The knoxville one RexSeven posted has been for sale for a very, very long time.
83 north of Pittsburgh
A little above challenge price and the ad is a little old (22 days) but the stripes make me happy in the pants.

That one does look good. Might actually feel a bit guilty cutting it up.

Nice looking 5-speed on copart with a sale date of 12/04. Zero bids yet and as far as I can tell it has a clean title since it is a donation car.

Been parked for a couple years. Condition unknown. Definately Challange price. In my old hometown in Northeast PA. Need to contact my brother and ask about status. . .

There is one at KRAP King Road Auto parts in holland Ohio, looked it over last Monday. Don't know I they sell cars out or not but it looked complete a little rusty

Is it rare because it is a manual? It might be worth a flight out to sunny California for Pat

No, it's rare because it has ground effects. They look the same as Charger ones but the side and rear ground effects are different and VERY low production pieces. It's probably a "California Direction Connection Rampage".

In reply to Vigo:
Sweet, it is probably worth more then, maybe it is to nice to cut up into a challenge car
Get one of each and make a "Scampage."
