Watch Phoenix, AZ obituary page….
Posted by: | CommentsMy name may soon be in it.....;)
I just bought an 89 Dakota, 137K miles, short bed, blown (up) 4 cylinder, 5 speed with new clutch, plus new tires, radiator, battery, computer, ignition switch. Body is nice, as in no rust or dents, but paint is flaking, of course....
The tow truck will deliver it tomorrow. I should be shot soon thereafter.....
If I survive, I will drop in a rebuilt 318 with magnum heads and carburetor, OD auto, and 8.25 3.55 suregrip axle.

Hagerty’s opinion of 1980 diplomats
Posted by: | CommentsThey won't insure it, won't insure any car with a declared value of under $7500. Gonna call Grundy tomorrow. Anybody got a suggestion for insuring a car that won't see 1500 miles a year?

new to me 80 Diplomat coupe, near mint
Posted by: | CommentsJust about the time I decide to give up on FMJ body cars, a real find just drops into my lap. Body and interior look almost new, this car spent its life in a garage when not being driven. Just 85K miles...maroon and white leather, all the power options. Funny thing, tho, no passenger side mirror, I have to take care of that soon...
It has a slant 6, and 2.7 ratio 7.25 axle but will change that to an 8.25 axle with 3.2 later on, to get more pep. I have all the parts on hand to do the bigger front disc brakes, 16" wheels with 225x60 tires, frame connectors, dakota springs, eliminate rear isomounts, bigger sway bars, etc. Engine and tranny are fine and will not be touched. No lean burn in 1980, so no issues there.
It will be the car that stays in AZ when we go back north to Utah for summer months. Got it for $2200, with a full tank...:)
