Looking forward to it. I'm an old guy who's been interested in cars all my life. I honestly can't remember those cars. It's an interesting piece for sure. The price was definitely right. I hope you put it back on the road and take us along with you getting it there.

That funmate car came on bottles of laundry detergent as a promo. I have a bunch of them. All Fords and Formula cars. Came with launcher pad too. Nice vid!

Thanks for that. Glad you enjoyed it! They had some nice old toys.

I owned a Plymouth Sapparo. Fun to drive, the 3 valve cylinder head set up Balanced Shaft. Ran so smooth at idle, folks in the passenger seat often asked me if the car was still running. The tech in this motor was so good, merecedes licensed it.

Sounds nice from a drivers standpoint and absolutely terrifying from a shade tree mechanic standpoint. 😅 I feel like a catfish that swallowed the hook! 😝

You're right William. The previous owner had bought them for the car. I got the wheels too.

I found your channel by fluke when you did the Lima auction the other day. I used to go to that yard many years ago. Wish I had known about the auction I would have went for sure. My shop is in Sidney not far from it

Thanks for watching! It looked like it was a busy place back out the day.

12:56 passenger side rearview mirror is useless not only is the a pillar blocking the view it's also lower than the beltline, meaning unusable & it's simply there for show and I don't think it's actually factory in those blindside sideswipe day's.

Hi David. I believe I saw a builders plate on the firewall of the Plymouth from Mitsubishi. AL B.

Yes you did AL. I didn't get close enough in the video to make it out.

Thanks Dustin! See if she can ever run again and go from there. Hopefully not too much of a rot box.

FunMate's are collectible...wish you had consulted with me, I could tell you what to buy. Like the blue tonka jeep truck and that Blue Dodge flat bed

There was a avid toy buyer there. I did pick up a few pieces including the blue Jeep its available on my store. Thanks for the tip on the funmates.. I'll keep an eye out.

Do you plan to resurrect your new Mitsu-Mopar? It honestly doesn't look that bad. None of the cars seemed overpriced, some decent deals to be had there.

Plan to see if it can ever run again and go from there unless I get an offer I cant refuse.😉

That was a good buy on the Plymouth. 42:51 Those rims you bought I think actually they go on a Dodge Challenger that was around the same year. Dodge made a Challenger with a Mitsubishi motor in it similar to that car. I had one on my channel years ago that someone has stuffed a Ford 302 and a C6 transmission in it. Check it out.
@WoodyFixit8 сағат бұрын
Good eye! Yes I got the wheels since I got the car. I'll definitely check it out. Sounds rad! If you mention second gen Challenger many people can't picture what it is. As for mine, I need to check viability of the engine then go from there, but a Honda fit has the same wheelbase....

That Plymouth has a lot of junk to move about with just that tiny engine😅

0:49 Might as well call it what it REALLY IS & that's 9000 miles, you stupidly even missed 68 miles when spewing said milage, Neglected or not Most likely the later, Long overdue vital fluid changes, Belt's,Air cleaner element you name it basically a thrown away rat race machine. Period

8:40 stray wingnut & loose screws & you have to be said nut to want to want one of these & the lower milage proves how much of a nightmare these huge gas hog lemons are nothing but headaches all around & Both this & the so-called luxury benz don't have the Mitsubishi door courtesy light and they call the two former cars luxury cars ? Imagine how many drunks fell over in the dark missing the curb because nothing is lighting the way like the domestic import fighter Sapporo Named after northern Japan where they get huge amount of snowfall in the winter & much better than the poobox ( mazda ) probe of the same era.
