I've always wanted a Rampage! Hard to find. A neighbor had one customized with a rear spoiler, hard tonnoe cover, bed liner, front spoiler and custom paint. Did it look sweet!

I don't think I've ever seen a Rampage before. Kinda reminds me of what may have happened if Ford made the Ranchero when the 4-eyed fox body Mustang was around.

The frame and front of the body were a Dodge Omni front wheel drive with a pickup bed. Real good looking small vehicles.

first thing on the list is to fix the rusted out floor pans. something I have never done. I have come to accept the fact that hearing protection is a good idea when using an angle grinder in enclosed spaces.

Well if Brent has not seen one, I have no chance. Just Google some images, and I like it.

I don't know what IN smog check regs are, but those things can be a blast with the later 1987+ T1/T2 setups.

zero inspection here. not sure I want to go turbo, but it is nice that it is a pretty much direct swap option. I do know I want to drop the 4 speed and swap in a 5 speed. I cant drive for 3 years still. I have been lurking around the turbododge and turbo-mopar forums. my car, or I guess its actually a truck, isnt as nice as any of those pictured above (yet). I don't have any good pics, but I managed to dig this up. classiccarsmark.com/dodge/96338-1982-dodge-rampage.htmlthat is where the guy I bought it from got it. still in same condition, well I mean I stripped the interior and have started cutting out the floor, but other than that same condition. actually its in better condition than then, the entire ignition system is new and so are the tires. didn't find any change when I was stripping it but I did find a dead mouse, a bullet >17hmr, and some pot seeds. |

I friggin LOVE those things. My neighbor has one with an LS7 and a six speed manual trans with a hard cover and adjustable modified Honda wing. When he brings it out this summer I will try to grab some pics.

wow, that sounds like a heck of an engine swap, considering they came with a sub 100hp 2.2 liter
