Re: [Amc-list] 73 Javelin Parts Car

["Armand Eshleman" <aje1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have only parted out three AMC cars, one Ambo, one Wagoneer and one 79
AMX. the AMX survives to this day. The other two cars were total rust
buckets with nothing left but good motors and transmissions. Parting out a
perfectly good car really isn't such a bad thing as long as the end result
is not crushing what's left. Let's face it, race cars have to begin
somewhere, and parting out nicely preserved cars to make them into race only
cars is a very good way to save AMC iron. If that Javelin were closer to
home I would go get it, after all, it would make a great race car, heck most
of the disassembly is already done !!

apart.
