Plymouth used the Scamp nameplate on at least two occasions. First, in the 1970s as a Plymouth derivative of the Dodge Swinger. Then, later, for 1983 only, it was as a small pickup which was also sold as the Dodge Rampage. The seller’s truck is one of 132 said to have been built wearing the red/black color combination. Its paint has been refreshed, and the overall vehicle appears to be as sound as a dollar. Located in Omaha, Nebraska, this low-mileage Mopar is available here on Facebook Marketplace for $10,900. We appreciate yet another cool tip from T.J.

The Rampage and Scamp were both built in the U.S. (not badge-engineered Japanese imports that Chrysler did a lot of in the 1970s). The vehicles’ unibody and front clip were lifted from the Dodge Omni 024 (also called Charger). While the Rampage was offered for three years (1982-84), the Scamp had a single year outing, making it rarer. Between the standard and GT models, perhaps 3,500 Scamps were built compared to 37,000 of the Dodges.

At 69,000 miles, this pickup is said to have been cosmetically restored. But since that excluded the interior, we assume that it means fresher red paint. But there seem to be no issues with the seats, carpeting, etc. A 2.2-liter inline-4 resides under the hood, and it’s paired with an automatic transmission, rather than a more common 4-speed. The seller has done his/her homework to determine that the number of these built in red with the interior in this one numbered just 11 dozen.

With a newer set of tires, this truck runs and drives great. You didn’t see many of these pickups when new, and, given the likely amount of survivors out there, you won’t this week, either.
