The following pictures show various aspects of this mint vehicle. Only the inside of the box has any sign of wear in addition to the occasional rock chip.

The engine is a great little performer, but can be tough to start. Two pedal pumps, turn it over for 5 seconds, wait, pray, and turn it over again and it usually starts immediately. After the first cold start it usually goes with just a key turn. After that it churns out an easy 35 miles per gallon or 7 litres per 100 km without difficulty.

Everything in the truck is stock and original. The seats are comfortable enough for a shorter trip. Long trips require a cushion. The stereo is a little weak though this one is equipped with Chrysler's best of that time. I may update this though I would like to keep it completely stock.

Tires were replaced for the first time last summer. The factory ones were just too cracked to drive across Canada.

I have a 84 rampage, with the 5 speed manual. The clutch mysteriously stopped engagin the other day, and i can not figure out why. Its a cable clutch so it wouldn`t be fluid. If u have any idea of what is wrong and how to fix it, please drop me a line. also, i need to replace the rack and pinion, so if u have any idea what work is involved in that, that information would also be appreiciated. thanks

Very nice. Just over a year ago, my dad bought my sister a Rampage just like yours - same year, same paint job. They are sharp little cars.

Very nice car. I have a rare seat combo that would look great in your car. My seat are the vinyl black with the silver inserts. I have the stock radio too, but the am/fm cassette 4 speaker system and it's actually pretty good. These cars were one of the first to have "custom size" in dash radio faces, so you will have to get a trim plate to make it fit properly.
Happy rampages and motoring.
