Aside from that, they were indeed very <br />sharp looking cars.captaingizmo54https://www.blogger.com/profile/14246340344036444593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5112355325821745788.post-77616683159922738682014-05-30T20:27:18.698-07:002014-05-30T20:27:18.698-07:00I like 024/TC3's better.

They did so much with so little. They <br />brought us the K-car, the minivan, and cars like this racy little coupe. My favorite is the Dodge<br />Rampage trucklet that appeared also on this platform. There was something about it that made <br />it one unique grocery getter. That little 2.2 litre four cylinder was both frugal and peppy too. I <br />also like the black clad Omni GLH turbo 4-door sedan. My wife and I took a test drive in this <br />car when it appeared in 1984. The tester was a turbo model with a souped up 2.2 litre four<br />cylinder engine. My wife let the clutch out, mashed the gas, and that thing took off like a <br />rocket! I can still hear that turbo screaming as she diced through the gears. I think it topped <br />out at somewhere near 115 MPH. It was cars like that which brought Chrysler back from the <br />dead. Man! I want an Omni GLH!captaingizmo54https://www.blogger.com/profile/14246340344036444593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5112355325821745788.post-69000714471105271872014-05-20T23:50:23.778-07:002014-05-20T23:50:23.778-07:00Ah, yes.

I like the wheel arches, I like the simplicity of the steel wheels, the black trim accents and the strangeness of that rear panel that rises to the hatch but at the same time draws my eye to the rear roof line, that kind of subtly wanders off into the air. Yes, I see beauty in different places, so thank you for this forgotten, forlorn design!

Can't find any info on what that dealer was selling in the 80s.<br /><br />Tony, did it have any Dodge badging on the interior? It shows how little effort Mother Mopar was putting into Plymouth by then... not even a slightly different grille or taillight texture.Spiffnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5112355325821745788.post-26886140812837467442014-05-20T06:56:14.837-07:002014-05-20T06:56:14.837-07:00The third brake light gives it away as a 1986-87 m...The third brake light gives it away as a 1986-87 model.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
