1981 Plymouth Caravelle Salon

Congratulations!

Very glad a forum member got this beauty!

 

way to go hemi thats a nice ride

 

Looks better in your pics than it did in the ad.....

Congrats!

 

Very nice "End of an Era" score with an honest Patina. I remember when those were a dime a dozen and definitely under appreciated. Congrats.

That looks like a great score!
Glad you were able to snap it up; congratulations!

 

Just beautiful. The Lean Burn system, working right, is very good. Get everything set up right, and you may even get decent gas mileage out of her. One of my old neighbours had a 78 Cordoba and did better on gas than we did in a 72 Dodge Dart with the 225 slant 6 and 1 bbl carburetor. That interior looks terrific, too. Hope you have many happy years with that new baby!

 

Congrats....Been years since I've seen one up here.

 

Drove it all over today. Put about 100 kilometers on it today. Just wish I knew how far that really was LOL.

 

100 kil = apx 62 miles

 

thanks Tedy

 

This can help ya also if your doing a road trip.....

Question though..... even though your odomiter is in KM's, your needle should show both, Kil and miles, rite?

 

Yes it does but the mph numbers are so small my old eyeballs can't read them going down the road.

 

Well it ran great untill today. I started it up and went down the road and it was running real rough under any kind of acceleration. The whole car was violently shaking. Idle isn't too bad but when I give it gas it feels like it's only running on 5 or 6 cylinders. Guess I'll have to make time to look at it tomorrow.

 

Oh No! Hope it's something simple, hemi!

 

Me too Fox. The thing that worries me is it seems like it lost multiple cylinders. I'll check all the easy stuff first but I think a compresion check will be needed.
