Re: [AMC-list] AMC-list Digest, Vol 10, Issue 15



That's a tough one as the knob pins are ridged and tapered. They are by design not intended to ever be removed. 
   My only thought would be to try drilling the head off that pin from the backside. Next you would need to carefully need to drill out the rest of the pin. 
   You'd also need to find replacement pins to press in or thread the knob to use a button head bolt to hold the knobs in. 

   I'd suggest contacting a few AMC vendors to look for the correct knobs. Or get some junk knobs to practice on.

I have a 1967 Rambler Rebel 770 Wagon.  I have silver window cranks 
with chrome knobs.  I purchased on Ebay some 1966 window cranks that 
have different handles but same knobs.  I need to remove the knobs from 
those handles and install them on my original handles that are missing 
the knobs.

What is the easiest the method to remove the knobs and install them on 
my handles.

Both are in great shape.

Thanks,
John

One day left on e-bay with the great spring cleaning prices.  Also will 
shortly have a sample of new Dealership Name License Plate Frames.  IF 
interested, let me know who your dealer was and see what we can create.

I found a photo
http://www.automotivehistoryonline.com/StudePackMIthruNV.htm#MN   of the
early days of the dealership where the white 70 Javelin I am the 
caretaker
of was originally sold.
When the Javelin was sold either in December 69 or sometime in early 
1970,
the dealership was known as Bob Rayl Motors.
Mr. Rayl (correctly spelled Rayl not Rayle, I graduated with his 
daughter)
bought out Mr. Swenson I think in the 60s sometime.
A fella named Bob Edwards was the shop manager. He was pretty 
knowledgeable
on AMC performance, because Mr. Rayl's two sons messed around with 68/69
AMXs. The sons may have worked on the cars too, but I'm guessing Mr. 
Edwards
did the majority of the work. The two sons raced at Thunder Valley 
Dragways
just outside of Marion, SD.  I suspect they were also routinely street
racing the AMXs and surprising a few big three cars in the process. I
remember a conversation I had with Mr. Edwards one day about there used 
to
be a tunnel ram laying around the shop that was from one of the AMXs.

Anyway the white Javelin was ordered by a traveling salesman, wish I 
knew
his name, he traded the car back in to Bob Rayl Motors in early 72 
sometime.
I bought it in May of 72 from Mr. Rayl. Traded in a POS S#@Tvelle that 
had
the crap ran out of it before I even got a hold of it. The white 
Javelin was
my daily driver until the late 70s. I am the fifth owner.
1. AMC
2. Bob Rayl Motors
3. salesman guy
4. Bob Rayl Motors
5. me
or as we usually refer to it, the second owner.

Thought you guys might enjoy a bit of history this Saturday.

Regretfully I removed the Bob Rayl Motors sticker off the car way back 
when.
I have been trying to get one from Mr. Rayl's daughter for several 
years. So
far no luck.

Armand
