Twin Turbo 1971 Scamp Project

superdve said

I still live in Detroit. Jose Valle @ Kaizen Motorsports in LaHabra has custody of the Scamp at the moment. The goal for the Scamp was that after Fram, it needed to culturally build bridges for car crafters young and old. No better place than LA this year.

Hopefully we can meet up when I visit. Keep you eyes peeled for the Tremec 5 Speed Swap!

Thanks for the props guys.

Yeah, one of my coworkers who has a '67 Dart came up to me about a month ago saying he saw a crazy Dart looking thing as he was about to say what engine it had, I said, "Let me guess, Toyota 2JZ? It's a Scamp. I've seen the build on it." :D

I definitely like the idea of culturally building bridges. It allows people to think outside of the scope of the norm and makes the hobby interesting. Maybe I'll pay them a visit to look the car over after work one day. Maybe get some ideas for the Dart because engine and/or trans is next to be modified next year (or soon after) and I have so many options but don't know what to choose.

Some guy has been selling an R154 on here that could be used.
