does anyone know of any sites or if them theirselfs sells any parts i
need a
left front fender,
SNIP
I have an excellent front fender, Arizona Rust Free. It still has
factory paint on the inside of it. 
SNIP
 an windsheild wiper/ washer knob
SNIP
Also can be found on Eagle and Concord from 1979 to end of production.
Just be careful to remove it correctly or you will break another one. 
I may even have on of those too, but no promises. 
SNIP
, a bracket that holds the hood release button. ok
  thank you
  brendan Barlow
SNIP
This too can be found on EAGLES, Concords and Spirits from 1979 to end
of production. 
This should make it easier to find in a wrecking yard. You will want to
remove one all the way from dash board to hood release. 
This also reminds me I need one for my 1974 Hornet. I had better start
looking. 
John.

There is a 73 TSM (Technical Service Manual -- what AMC called their
factory manuals) on-line at  <http://www.tocmp.com> www.tocmp.com.
Search the site for "AMC
manual" and it will show up. I'm not 100% positive the EGR is the same,
but it should be unless 74 was the first year for EGR. I don't think so
-- I believe that at least CA cars used EGR in 73.
SNIP
A quick look at this and compared to '74, the EGR shown compares to 74,
49 state or federal configuration. 
'74 California used a different EGR

I wouldn't mind being put in charge of Jeep. It wouldn't be hard to cure 
Jeep's woes of poor fuel economy.

A: Probably the cheapest setup would be a 4.0L exhaust manifold from an '87 
to '90 Cherokee or Comanche. The 4.2L one for Jeeps hangs lower (it'll be 
ground by the ground!) and it's known to fit Eagles so it should work in a 
Hornet. I usually sell them for $40 or so on Ebay (when I can free them from 
the "AMC vault of horror" aka my storage locker that's big enough to hide a 
small bus in)

A: Someone else will have to help with the suspension upgrades, but you can 
use later model AMC car disc brakes and possibly Jeep 2wd front brakes. (I 
looked at the 2wd Comanche brakes I had and they were very basic)

Hello I wanted to know if you had any suspension or brake
upgrades for an **1961** rambler classic? If you dont can you
possible point me in the right direction. I having a hard time
finding any aftermarket parts for this car. So any bit of
infomation you can give me would be great.

Also can you help me on finding infomation on the rambler? I
have litteraly spent hours infront of my laptop with no avail.

Thanks a lot
Miguel

Miguel
