Plymouth Scamp ?
So i traded my sportbike for a 1974 Scamp , and was wondering how rare the car is . I have googled it and not too many returns came back . It has been gutted and semi caged for strip use . It came with a 383 stroked to 426 , 727 reverse shift trans , 8 3/4 rear with 4:56 gears . The previous owner claims 1/8 mile times of low 7's , but i havnt got to take it to the track yet . The car is strait with little to no rust and hasnt been hacked up to bad , could still be street run . It needs paint as it is just primered . I found a vin decoder and it was orig a 6 cyl car . The decoder also said it was a high price mark car , although im not sure what that ment . I traded for the car thinking it was worth more than my bike was and maybe i could turn it , since i dont have a car hauler or a track close by . Any info or comment would be welcome .. Oh , also included was another block , crank , pistons , and heads . Was told it was a 69hp block .40 over and the heads were 906 heads . When i ran the #'s on the heads though , there was no difference in valve size for most of the 383,s so im not sure what makes these 906 heads . The crank is supposidly a stroker crank also , i havnt had a chance to run the numbers on it yet . I will probably sale the other motor as it needs work . It was never built and the guy let it set in his shed , but it got wet and the block and heads will need de rusting and probably need a valve job . The crank is clean and has been greased with cosmaline type grease .
