Re: [AMC-list] parting out amc eagle NJ crusher alert & more Eagles for sale & parts

["Eddie Stakes" <eddiestakes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It's not so much the one(s) that we see like this going to crusher, it is the thousands 
before them no one cared about and went silently. Little or no, interest. The last gen 
AMCs have popped up in junkyards mostly in 90s and some of the stuff on them 'common' and 
other items' collectible' but overall you sell handful of items everyone is looking for 
like flairs, grille perhaps then you left with scrap weight due to zero interest. Supply & 
demand. And it won't always be this way either, items for these will be difficult to find 
in years to come as more and more of them disappear.

With that in mind, here is a 88 Eagle, one of 2306 made being parted out:
======================

Parting out a 1988 AMC Eagle. This car does still run, the transmission is good and the 4 
wheel drive works. Let me know what you need and see if we can come to a deal. Give me a 
call at 319 270-1600. Emails will not be answered, so don't waste my time or yours. And 
NO, junkers will not get this car for a couple hundred bucks so again don't waste my time 
or yours. Have a great day!

clean 85 wagon $1400 in Minnesota:
1985 AMC Eagle 4WD with 55,945xx. This is a classic great car in fair condition. The fuel 
pump, ignition module and battery have all been replaced within the last two months. There 
is some work that needs to be done. The rear differential needs to be worked on. The car 
still runs and drives but there is some noise in the back from the rear differential. We 
would love to keep this beauty of a car but are moving to Chicago this weekend and don't 
have the time or energy to put the work into it. Come and take a gander at a true american 
classic. Perfect car for someone who appreciates older cars and can handle the constant 
thumbs up and smiles from passerby s. Peace, Niki

parting out 84 Eagle, $500 or parts:
I am selling my 1981 AMC Eagle Wagon for parts. It is a good running car with lots of new 
parts. The only problem is that the front subframe around the passenger wheel is rusted 
out. I do not have a title for this car, for parts only. Please send me an email or 
call/text me with any ?.

======================================
last year I put up my 1988 Eagle wagon, wife's daily driver:
http://www.planethoustonamx.com/Photo_Gallery_AMC/88_Eagle.jpg
for $500. Zero interest and had it advertised for 6 months before deciding to part it out. 
It was last year 1988 Eagle #100 of 2306 made.
http://www.planethoustonamx.com/stuff/last_amc_built.htm

So when parting it, everyone wanted: flairs for end cap bumpers, delay wipers, 
AM/FM/Cassette, bumpers, and not much else. A number of it's parts ended up on my own 
fleet of Eagles, Concord wagon & sportabout:
http://www.planethoustonamx.com/Photo_Gallery_AMC/winter2011.jpg

but also let it go for $150 with good running engine, trans, whole suspension, radiator, 
doors and some more, just....was...no interest beyond certain parts. Compare it to 71-74 
AMX & Javelins. You get past the first dozen 'collectible' parts and what do you have. A 
rolling hulk the scrap man will give you $300 or so for weight. And so it goes. Hope some 
of those Eagles, and their parts up above find good homes, Eagles are a blast to drive, 
wife drives her 88 daily, and I drive my 82 almost daily and has 210,000 miles on it.

Oh I quite agree!  It's a GREAT car. A mighty fine specimen of an Eagle.  I have 5 such 
Eagles and none of them started off that well.  Those bumper end caps are like gold.  2 of 
mine have some way to go to get THAT good... and this one is headed to the crusher. 
Shame. The kinked hood is a VERY common problem with their stupid short-link hood hinge 
setup.  Aside that, the rest of the car looks GREAT. I'd go get the thing myself if it 
wasn't 2,000 miles away. Screw the title, I could make it all work ;-)
