No, I probably have the information here somewhere
on the buyer, but all he did was turn it for same price he bought it from me
for. Ironically, I had this car advertised for months, just like this little 74
Sportabout (which I have been trying to sell for three years now for $600) but
had the 304 wagon for sale for months, heavily advertised nationally. Hope it
found a good home, was a solid little car, only problem I had with it was is was
putt putty when first starting up, and until it got to operating temp, was
sluggish, homeless people with shopping carts were faster.

Very common 000 VIN's in 1973. Here is a copy
of a 73 Hornet Sportabout Texas title for instance I sold last year for
$975. Facroty 304V8, AT, nicly optioned, offered it here on Bart's list and
other places for months and no bites, so finally simply shoved it on ebait.
Sadly the fellow who bought it only wanted to custom it and took it to
Dallas, where he promptly changed plans when somethign else caught his eye
and it was back up on ebay...a month later for well, $975, where it sold
last day and is now in Tennessee.
Note the VIN of A3A087H009581; this was a
September 1972 built car, very early 1973 production, so sort of neat, that
and it was a factory 304V8 car. The copy of the title you see here is a copy
of the ORIGINAL title also, sold new to Betty there from Taylor American in
Dallas Texas in 1973.....and also worth noting is the original owner title
date off to the left of 09/25/73 also.

Too simple. There were times AMC went into the 200,000s and
300000s.
This is as simple as it gets:
Serial# begins with a 0-6, it's Kenosha-built
7-9, it's from Brampton.
(yes, the 0 versions do exist)

All
Canadian AMCs started with production number 700001. I don't believe
Bill has a shop manual, but for anyone who has a shop manual (TSM)
for
almost all years before 1981, inside the very front pages
where it describes
how to figure out your VIN and door tag, it
will have a blurb that
100001-699,999 is Kenosha built, while
700,001 thru 1,000,000 is Brampton
built. I have enclosed the
second page from a 1970 TSM here, look in middle
row. Hope that
helps,
