who thought of calling a vehicle Rampage? Why not plain old 'Disgruntled' or 'Angry and Careless'.

Yes I remember these vehicles This was one Chrysler had a spark of light in their company and they were trying different things Do you remember the E class limo? This was when Lee Iacocca was Chairman of the Chrysler Corporation

I owned the Plymouth Scamp. Same car. True that they were just made one year ? I kinda miss mine.

a sky like that makes me want to rephotograph old cars. a worthy revisit.

fun fact: google street view shows that same car parked in front of that same shipping container.

Yes, the Scamp was a 1983 only. I remember the Scamp badge was the same plastic one they used on the 1976 Valiant Scamp. Dexter, is that true or was it just a decal in the same font?

This would be a good place to list the rare US market cars that haven't appeared on OPC yet.

1983 Plymouth Scamp
1983 Nissan Pulsar (Not NX) 2-door or 4-door hatchback
1987-90 Nissan Sentra 4-door hatchback
1990-92 Nissan Stanza
1987-90 Nissan Van
1987-93 (Daewoo) Pontiac LeMans
1980 Rover 3500 (American SD1)

Any more? These should be no sweat to spot after finding rarities like the LaForza, Mitsubishi Galant, Sigma, Cordia, and Tredia!

IIRC, all 4 of those Nissans have been posted.
Anyways, this Rampage looks a bit better than it did last time. Love the Malaise-tastic paintjob and pinstripes

I double-checked and I did see the Nissan Van, but the other Nissans aren't on OPC. The Curbside Classic site found a Pulsar: http://www.curbsideclassic.com/curbside-classics-asian/curbside-classic-1983-nissan-pulsar-five-door-so-rare-i-forgot-it-existed/

How do you stop a stampeding elephant?
Step on his stampeter.
