> Congrats on the find Josh. Near home makes it even better, saves haveing it to be shipped. When I was looking for another car over the past 4 years all the ones I wanted to buy that I could afford were clear across the country and the price of shipping put them out my price range. I lost out on a nice clean running 76 Gremlin 45 min. away in N.J. I was looking for a driver and not a project. I was supposed to go see the car on a sunday but sat. I was taken to the hosptal and all the contact info was on my WEB TV and no one could get it. The idiot had my home phone no# but never called and when I didn't show up on sunday he took the car monday and sold it to a used car lot. My new Hornet I bought from a guy that screwed me out of it 4 years ago that lives in town. Like I said Congrats Man.

All the AMC's that I have ever worked on never had the screws replaced after a brake job except my yellow one and that was because I did the work. The wheel bolted on held the drums on. On the front end I just used my AMC spring compressor to remove the springs on the Spirit and Concord I parted out and unbolted everything. Be careful with them springs that can kill you if you are not careful. An old AMC mechanic I knew was blind in one eye from a spring hitting him in the head. No rush on the seat belts let me know when you can.
