It's not transverse, like most FWD cars. So it might not be in that evil of a place. However, if I get the car, I will hunt high and low to find a manual on it so that I can repair whatever's reasonable myself. Does anybody know how possible a 4.0 conversion is? Since the car has absolutely no value at all, when I get enough dough to play with it, I might try to turn it into a more proper AMC by changing out the Eagle badges for AMC ones, and maybe putting Concord or Ambassador emblems on it, and installing a 4.0 would be nice. I'd probably try to find some '91-92 taillights as well because I like them better. But that's IF I get this car, and IF I ever see fit to play around with it. Just thoughts bouncing around in my head. Thanks for the suggestions! Peace, Rhett === === Since it is the end of the line Eagle - and in 20 years it'll be featured as a lone survivor of a forgotten merger of some car makers of note - I'd coat the undercarriage with corroless & see how long I could keep the car in decent shape! thats' my vote anyway........ these are the future 'Hash' cars! Maybe a Future Hemmings Feature ? I've collected a few of the 'Jeep-Eagle' patches MoPar had made for their Service Dept. personnel - and - two 'Original' Jeep - Eagle license plate surrounds. the 2nd generation 'EAGLE' logo design is striking in its' own way - would like to collect the Eagle crests but I doubt many are left - so - score the car & post some .jpg pix - ! =Bt= milnersXcoupe _______________________________________________ AMC-List mailing list AMC-List@xxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.amc-list.com/mailman/listinfo/amc-list or go to http://www.amc-list.com
