So my dad bought an '80 Plymouth Arrow in November of '79 and has had it ever since. He's now passing it on to me, I should have my hands on it this weekend... Lot of memories in that truck, I'm glad to have it. :)

Will do. Should have it in my hands Saturday. It's going to need some love cosmetically, but mechanically, everything is sound.

Ahhh ,,, Alabamee, still cool, it'll be in AZ soon enough.
Then if we ever have a Left Side gathering, we can count one more in !

I see it's a Standard, so 2.0L and does it have a 4 Speed or an Automatic ???

As for Tail Light Lenses, I hope you ordered them from our own Mike Warme !
A Good Guy with a Great Selection of parts !
(there, That promo should get me at least 10% off) :oD

Well Welcome Again, and Post some more pix after you get it in your lucky little hands !

Update: should be here Monday.

It's the 2.0 automatic.

New Jasper engine, new carb, new shocks in the rear, new gas tank, front end just rebuilt, I've got a new idler arm and new front shocks on order...
New tires, new brakes, new master cylinder.

I did buy the NOS tail light lenses from Mike Warme on eBay, as well as a new dome light... before I even found this forum! :) Lucky!

Bought some off of Mike before I knew about this forum. LOL

Sounds like the truck is going to be in pretty good shape !
Can't wait to see pictures of it.
