1972 Scamp, Sherwood Green Metallic, 225 CID

Sign Guy

Supposed to be a true survivor car. Original paint, original vinyl top, came rolling on steel wheels with original full wheel covers. Interior shows little wear but the backrests of the front seat have been recovered. Carpet worn in front of gas pedal. Appears to have never have had floormats. Still has AM radio in dash. Pinstripes are painted on, not vinyl. Shows 44,000 miles which were represented as believed original but not guaranteed.

that car looks great! I like that color green better than the sherwood green, but will not consider a color change on mine. It looks like it's in pretty good shape, my car is a little rustier than I realized but going to go ahead the the restoration.

Very nice!

I would maybe keep that one as a 6 cyl driver

Sign Guy

My intentions are a soft restoration, keeping the six but adding a/c and replacing the factory am radio with something modern and hitting the road.

Mine a/c was the upgrade on that car. My green is a nice color. Once I add more pics and figure it out I will post more. The other extra that was added was a jvc cd player. Something I would have installed right away. keep yours stock. It will be worth something some day. I'm new to the classic car world. First one owning at the age of 29. I plan on keeping mine for a long time!

Sign guy. Do you have a Scamp decal on the back of yours? Does it look updated in white?

Sign Guy

Yes it has a white Scamp with black outline and shadows. I think when I get around to getting the car painted I'm going to do a custom decal, not sure what yet.

Interesting. The Scamp is a cool basic design almost ahead of it's time for that era. I also have a gas cap lock on it as well. My favorite are the window vents in the front.

i would leave the factory am radio in teh dash and have a custom glove box made up for the new radio. that is my plan for my 67 valiant.

They put mine under neath the original one. The original one is still in place to. I have to figure out how to get the back speakers working. The center front one works.

mikerp76

you may have to run new speaker wire to the rear speakers. they may have wired it up to the front speaker only as well

That's going to be my project when I'm on vacation next week.
