To see more, click on the www.carsinbarns.com website, some of that iron restored is $250,000 but no, let's let it sit next to the trailer until it becomes biodegradable and returns to the earth from whence it came...... There is also a Ugly AMX Contest on my own website under 'Registries' and it has a number of well, ugly cars: http://www.planethoustonamx.com/ugly%20cars/uglycars2.htm Don't eat before viewing. I wished I had a book of all the excuses, comments and thoughts I have heard from people since the 1970s on why they might let a car go this far. Granted, some have more important things in their lives, like kids, but geez, sell the old wreck and buy the kids some shoes! The U. S. Mail Ambassador silently sits in a east Texas salvage yard witing for a buyer, if I can ever find the darned name/phone of the place I'll pass it on, yes, it is factory RIGHT HAND DRIVE and is a original U. S. Mail postal vehicle; the two AMXs here were frozen in time in 1983, parked and the gentleman just 'never got around to them again' and I bought them days from being hauled to the crusher when he saw one of my ads in Houston, both were 390 cars, one 4spd, one AT. Sure would have liked to see that white one when new......originally it was Laredo Tan with Red interior, a stunning combination that I have only seen on two cars (this being one of them) since the cars were new in 1968.
