1984 Dodge Rampage
Yes, they're very easy to do a Small Block RWD conversion on. I believe Direct Connection even sold a SB K-Frame for those little trucks in the 80's too. They have a nice sized "Transmission tunnel" too (actually a Catalytic Converter Tunnel) With a curb weight of about 1,200 pounds (2.2L, all options, spare tire, etc) It would be a deadly beast with a small block.
Less than half the weight of an A-Body, Fiberglass Front Bumper/Nose, Aluminum Rear Bumper, Light weight seats, there isn't much to them. Pure suicide with a SBM, just the way I like my vehicles :D
BTW Steve, if you ever happen to come across a Fiberglass Bumper Insert (the frame/structure) for an '83 Scamp / Scamp GT, let me know. I would buy it in a heartbeat, because it's the only part that is preventing me from finishing my Scamp.
Here was mine shortly after I bought it. Cost me $50 at the time :D Hard to believe I've had that cruck for 8 years now, and I haven't seen it in 7 years
