    Rubber filler pad between body and bumper

    I don't know what it is really called, but it's the heavy rubber sheeting used to fill in the space between the body and bumpers on my 74 Scamp, and I'm assuming earlier and later years as well. Is it available someplace, or what do you do when it needs replacing - leave it off? dave

    Not putting vinyl top back on - problems with trim?

    The roof on my Scamp is completely rusted over, but it is only surface rust, most likely from the vinyl top that was on it. Looks like the vinyl just turned to rust. A lot of it will just brush off with your hand. I hope that's the case, anyway. Seems pretty solid throughout, though. dave

    May have found replacement 1/4 window seals for 74 Scamp

    Discovering that no one is repoping these seals, I started looking around thinking that something had to be close enough, if not exactly the same. It looks like the seals from a 71-74 Cuda are almost identical to the ones on my 74 Scamp. The rubber is about 1 inch shorter on the Cuda, but...

    Not putting vinyl top back on - problems with trim?

    My 74 Scamp originally had a vinyl roof. I've decided that I will NOT be replacing the vinyl roof. I see rear window gaskets "for vinyl roofs", but not for non-vinyl roof cars. Is there a difference? Am I going to have to find new bright work for around the rear window and the roof drip rails...

    1/4 window weatherstripping

    Just heard from RPM Restoration Parts, Inc. They don't have anything and doesn't know if anything else would work because they are not familiar with the shape of the Scamp quarter window. Wanted to know if I could bring it by at the Mopar Nats, and see if anything would match up...

    1/4 window weatherstripping

    I was thinking the same thing 70's stuff should all be close enough to work. I ordered a pair from the Paddock - supposed to be for a 72 - that's as far as they went. They were too short and not wide enough. I should check the package and make sure they sent me the 72 stuff. dave

    1/4 window weatherstripping

    I'll take another look at Year One, but I don't think they go up to 74. I'll see if I can find soft seal's web site, if they have one. Anyone else? Thanks, dave

    1/4 window weatherstripping

    Anyone found any place that has the rear quarter window weather stripping for 73-76 Darts/Scamps? I have a 74 Scamp. I ordered some for a 72 - that's all the further the Paddock went - and they are way too short and too narrow. I'm wondering if weatherstripping for a B-body would work. I'd...

    Can I put a vinyl head liner in my 74 Scamp

    Hi, Evil. Yeah, I haven't been able to locate any hard head liners. I'll have to do some checking, like you say, try and find one in a junk yard and pull it apart and see what's there. Do you know what I would be looking for?, assuming I could locate one with a card board head liner? dave

    Can I put a vinyl head liner in my 74 Scamp

    Hi, everyone! My 74 Scamp has a "hard" head liner in it - made of heavy cardboard or something similer? Anyway, is there somewhere I can get the bows and put a regular vinyl head liner in it? Or is the roof not designed for the regular head liner bows? Anyone know? Thanks, dave

    What should I do with my dash board? Help!!!

    The fake wood vinyl is totall shot. I don't want to do a sheet metal dash or anything like that. Is there any place to get die cut replacement wood-look vinyl for these? I thought about just cleaning it all up real good and maybe use black wrinkle finish on it. It had the wood trim all the...

    2005 Chrysler 300-I had the chance to test drive one today.

    I've heard from people who have driven the new 300C. Everyone says that car flat out flies! Said the ride and handling were exceptional. I saw a short video of one - it is in a shallow power slide, rear tires smoking. Then it takes off in a straight line and smokes the tires for a long, long...

    Are Duster and Scamp doors the same?

    OK, thanks, Evil. I really appreciate your taking the time to check all these things out. Information well received and will be used to the utmost. Take care. Sure I'll have more questions as time goes on. :thumrigh: dave

    Are Duster and Scamp doors the same?

    Well, I can try. On mine (74 Scamp) it has the normal inner door panel, but then at the top, where other cars have metal that extends from where the window goes, down to meet the regular inner door panel, mine is some kind of plastic or heavy vinyl material. If you rolled the window down, and...

    Are Duster and Scamp doors the same?

    Thanks Kev. That opens up a whole new parts source - for me anyway - LOL. Do the plastic door uppers appear to be the same, or, because of the vent windows, maybe they are different too. dave

    Kev - you out there? Can you check something for us?

    Can you check the doors on your Duster and Scamp and see if they're the same? We're trying to see if the interior door panels and upper plastic parts would interchange. Thanks, dave PS - foregive me if your Scamp is actually a Dart. I'm new here and don't know people yet, but someone...

    How about Kev - you out there somewhere? Can you do the side-by-side comparison for us? Would sure appreciate it. It would open up a whole new source for interior parts. Thanks. dave

    Are Duster and Scamp doors the same?

    I'm wondering if door panels and the upper door plastic will work from one to the other. I"ve found some Dusters being parted out, so just wondering if anyone knows. Thanks, dave

    Parts Interchange for 74 Scamp

    Rabius and Evil - thanks very much. Guess I'll have to start looking for some new dash parts - mine has it all across the front, including the glove box. What were they like if they didn't have the "wood" on them? Or were they all like that? Mine also has, on the inner doors, plastic upper...

    Parts Interchange for 74 Scamp

    Hi, everyone! I'm new here, so be gentle :lol: I have just acquired a nice 74 Scamp, /6 that has a very straight body. The big problem is the interior. The bit of research I've been able to do seems to indicate that the dash panels of 73-76 Valiants, Scamps, and even Dusters are almost...
