Vehicle Detail
1978 PLYMOUTH SAPPORO / DODGE CHALLENGER . This car is very rare and you never see these at all on the roads anymore . These cars were made in Japan by Mitsubishi Motors and badged as Sapporos and Challengers in the USA from 1978 -1983 only . This car has only had one other owner since new it has 117k on it and still runs great it is a A/C car, 5spd manual with full instrumentation , No Idiot lights . When I bot this car it runs and drives very nice and has never been wrecked but needed Interior , Paint and vinyl top replaced .. And since then I have had the seats redone and they look great . These cars came with a half canopy vinyl roof with opera lights very 1980s look . So I have removed the Targa band and opera lights patched the holes and did a complete vinyl top on the car . So it is a real one of a kind .. These Sapporos and Challengers were indentical twins only minor trim and paint made them different .. This one could be a 1978 Challenger clone .. Some funny cars were designed by this body style and this car would be a ideal candidate for a V8 transplant such as a 360 stroker engine or other .. Again this is a very rare car and not many at all left these days .. Dash and Headliner and door panels are great original condition . The A/C will need to be serviced as it blows but not cold , The CARB should be rebuilt soon or replaced with a Weber replacement many people did replace the original carbs with Webers .. I have put a lot of money into this car and now moving out of state I am selling at a reasonable price for all the work I have done but if I cant get what I want I will tow the car to my new home ,, Also I have painted the front grill black for more of the Challenger look and the wheels have also been painted black with wheel paint and I have added center caps and chrome beauty rings .. It will really look nice for a 32 yr old car . You can view this type of car on a website called msapporo.com if you go to the Plymouth part you will see the body style . Some of you lookers may already know just what it looks like and may have owned one in the 8Os .. My Name is Otto I am happy to speak with anyone about the car and answer any questions you may have my number is 830 515 8311 In New Braunfels Texas between San Antonio and Austin in the foot of the Hill Country .. It is really a nice little classic car for the money I am asking for it Happy Bidding and Good Luck .. Completed and ready to buy let me know .. You will be hard pressed to find another one of these cars and it is the kind of car either you love the body style or you hate it .. All you Plymouth guys out there will remember this car I am sure ... Thanks last time I came face to face with one of these cars it was 1986 .. This car has new paint ( not show quality ) but decent , new vinyl top , and new seats they have been redone Car runs and drives great at 70 mph down the highway .. Has a little run on sometimes after shuting off the ignition , Sure just Carb adjustment needed .. I have put a lot of money in this extremely rare little car as you just never see these anymore .. My loss is your gain .. Car can be stored for up to one month at no added cost payment terms per auction .. Buyer pays all shipping fees of course .. Dont let this one get away if you like rare cars this is one for sure .. Buy it now ...
