[BaadAssGremlins] SCORE!! Another AMC and some infamous rubber...

["John W Rosa" <JohnRosa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I just picked up (today) yet another AMC from 
near Philly, PA.

A late-73 (meaning it's got the 74 bumpers/fuel 
door) Hornet hatchback. It's been gutted in 
preparation for a restoration that never happened,
but just about all is in boxes and baggies. Body
is nice, and wears 77 AMX flares and spoiler.
Interior has black Levis rear seats and door 
panels from a 78 AMX, while later Spirit buckets 
are up front. Dash is out, too. No motor, had a 
six. Came with a 727 trans. Spare rear bumper,
original-type black interior door panels, padded 
3-spoke steering wheel, 

Lots of neat stuff with it that will go on my 73 X,
like NOS 'X' emblem for the rear panel, NOS side
marker lenses and front signal lenses, NOS hood 
ornament, NOS window crank handles. Came with spare
fenders and a hood in nice shape (with a nice used 
ornament). Two sets of wheels (8-slot Rallys and
those tight-mesh turbine-style wheels). Also came 
with spare V8 front coils and crossmember and has
a 7-leaf rear spring set installed.

Much more in various boxes...my truck was stuffed 
to the cap's roof, and more went it the car for 
the tow home.

Will make an excellent drag car starting point, but
is complete enough that an ambitious buyer could put 
it back on the street.

I plan to sell off a lot of the 'extras', so 
inquiries are welcome. I may even part with the car 
itself (if I can come to my senses). All is located 
in Morristown, Morris County, New Jersey.

I've also purchased those much-discussed Poly-Glas 
tires from Joe Smith for use on my Hornet X. They
will be mounted to the extra set of 14" rallys I 
just got with the 'new' Hornet after I restore 
these wheels. They will then get my best 4 trim 
rings and caps. I will transport them in bags in 
the back of the car to shows, swap them on, then 
swap back before heading home on the car's 
current Firestones. Thanks for recognizing the
rarity of this rubber, Joe! They're gonna look 
SWEET!!
