Hi Harold while no AT for the 290 (do you really want to put that junk behind there, they are a real crappy trans, not the big crappy M11-M12s, but low end bottom dwellers AMC used from 65-69(?) on the 290) but if so, contact Mike at 505-443-3400, he is closer to you, big salvage yard in New Mexico, should be able to hook you up, or possibly CTC Autoranch in Sanger, TX. Google them for info. Kids are doing well, Noah is three years old, and while this has no bearing on anythign here, a photo of his FOOT is enclosed, as yesterday he put it up near mine and I was astonished at the size of this yeti's foot. Who knows, might end up like my oldest son Jason, who is 25, he is 6'3" and wears a size 14 shoe!Eddie Stakes'

Also do you happen to have an automatic tranny down there to put behind my 68 290 in my Javelin( unless I can find the guy with the Sportabout V8 up here and get that car)?Hope the family is well, bet those boys are getting big.

is what model I think it is, big early 80s boxy car) he bought from original
owner, who she sold it only because she can't drive anymore. It has 38,000
miles on it, you would have to see this car, to me it looks like instant
showcar if someone details engine and repaints trunk lid from fading due to
texas sun. He wants $1800/obo for it.
And lastly, there is a old lady named Mrs. Maxwell here who I have been on
her butt to sell me her 74 Gremlin, 258-6, AT, white, loaded, for years, it
has 34K original miles on it, she don't drive no more as her ankles swelled
up due to she has a variety of ailments at 81 years old. You would have to
see that thing, geez, it is beautiful, garaged, and well, has not been
driven for about 2 years sadly.
