Bart,Just got an itch to get some stuff done. I've got..err...had 6 AMCs plus my olddriver '95 Tracer all sitting in Mom's backyard all winter, collecting dust andtaking up space. The weather has been PERFECT for outside car work and I'veplayed hooky for a week now to take advantage of it.I took all I needed off the Gremlin and it was hauled away today (so if someonewanted it, they waited too long to say so).The '79 Spirit is similarly stripped of all I could want or need, and is available toanyone wanting it as a drag car starting point or similar such project...tho I fear$100 will somehow be too much for someone to justify...in which case, I'll pullthe remaining good stuff off and junk it, too.The SX/4 was sold last summer but hasn't been picked up yet (damn, I'm anice guy).I just gave the Tracer to my neighbor's kid to beat the remaining life out of.better he does his 'stupid mistake' in an air-bag-equipped car than in theEagle I helped him get...which is now a slow summer project to be ready byfall.The blue Hornet has given up it's AMX air dam and flares, and also awaitssomeone with $300 to kill. Barring that, it will sit this year out cuz I'm busyplaying with...The '81 Spirit has been resurrected (against it's will)...which means I startedit up today, warmied it up and tooled around the property a bit to shake offthe cobwebs and move the lube around a bit. I've completed about half theconversion from tan to black interior and hope to finish it completely tomorrow.After that, the '78 AMX nose goes on with the '77 AMX air dam and flares,'79 AMX rear spoiler and a set of 15" alloys and 60s tires I grabbed off eBayfor cheap. I'm still hunting a battered 2WD Cherokee to donate it's 4.0 and4-spd auto trans, but no rush, I guess. Price matters more. Still need a gooddiea for the paint color, tho.....I'm leaning toward '72 Plum Metallic.The copper Hornet X is being tweaked in preparation of show season. It's beingrun everyday for 20 minutes locally and seems willing to go longer, so I'm hopingto find some good events to take her to before the month ends.My focus is now the '81 Spirit and the Hornet X- just two, not six. More gets donethat way.Does all that answer your questions(s)? :)John-----Original Message-----
