Best thing about this 71 Darwin Javelin that looks like it
doubles as doghouse is this small paragraph at bottom of auction:
"FEEL FREE TO COME LOOK AND MAKE OFFER"
Might be worth saving here is the actual
description......looks like this is one of those Wacky Races cars that had
several engines....ya'll all remember Dick Dasterdly, Pelelope Pitstop and all
the others, but some of those cars had multiple engines......looks like this
Dariwn Javelin came with both a 304 and 350, quite a feat, might be
prototype!
===========================
THIS IS A 1971 AMC JAVELIN IN VERY GOOD SHAPE NEEDS VERY LITTLE TO FINISH
THE CAR THIS IS ORIGINALY A 304 AUTO CAR BUT I PUT A 60,000 MILE 350 CHEVY IN IT
WITH A 350 TURBO TRANS WITH THE SAME MILAGE, ENGINE AND TRANS CAME OUT OF FULL
SIZED TRUCK I STILL HAVE THE ORIGINAL 304 MOTOR AND TRANS THAT GO WITH THE CAR
IT COULD BE PUT BACK ORIGINAL VERY EASILY THE 304 HAS A HIGH RISE INTAKE
WITH 4 BARREL CARB AND RUNS EXELLENT THE TRANS IS A BORG WARNER AUTO THAT NEEDS
REBUILT THAT WHY I SWITCHED OUT THE ORIGINAL MOTOR AND TRANS AND PUT IN THE
350 CHEVY WHICH I ALREADY HAD, I MADE ADAPTER PLATES FOR THE ENGINE
MOUNTS SO NONE OF THE ORIGINAL MOUNTS WERE ALTERED, THE CAR RUNS AND DRIVES
WITH NEW ENGINE AND TRANS THE ONLY THING IT NEEDS IS A SHIFTER CABLE FOR THE
B&M RATCHET SHIFTER I BOUGHT FOR IT, 350 CHEVY ENGINE IS A 4 BOLT MAIN BLOCK
WITH 4 BARREL HOLLY 750 VACCUM SECONDARYS AND ELECTRIC CHOKE, THE FRAME OF
THE CAR IS IN EXELENT SHAPE NO RUST HOLES THE TRUNK HAS NO RUST EITHER
FLOOR PANS ARE EXELLENT THE WHOLE BODY OF THE CAR IS PERFECT EXCEPT FOT THE
PASSENDER SIDE QUARTER SOME ONE PUT A PATCH PANEL ON AND THE FILLER ON THE
SEAM IS STARTING TO CRACK IT WILL HAVE TO BE REDONE AT SOME POINT
I TOOK A PICTURE OF THIS SPOT, I HAVE THE FULL SET OF CHROME AMERICAN
RACING RIMS FOR THE CAR THAT MATCH THE FRONT RIMS, THE INTERIOR IS ALL NEW NO
RIPS OR TEARS IN SIDE OF THE CAR THE ONLY THING I DID NOT DO WAS PUT I
HEAD LINER IN, IT HAS BRAND NEW CARPET AND SEAT COVERS. DOOR PANELS DASH
AND CONSOLE HAVE BEEN REDYED, ALSO THE REAR SHOCKS ARE NEW AND THE LEAF SPRINGS
HAVE NEW LEAFS ADDED AND ADJUSTABLE SHACKLES ADDED, NEW GAS LINES AND GAS TANK,

CAR THEIR IS ALSO A BOX OF EXTRA PARTS IN THE TRUNK A/C CONTROLS EXTRA SET OF
GUAGES VENTS,CHROME ETC. PICTURES ARE NOT THE BEST IT LOOKS BETTER IN PERSON
THEIR IS SOME BIRD DROPINGS ON THE CAR IT HAS BEEN UNDER THE TREE
THATS THE WHITE SUFF ON THE CAR IN THE PICTURES AND THEIR IS SOME MUD ON IT ALSO
I ENCOURAGE YOU TO COME AND LOOK AT IT BEFORE YOU BID THE CAR HAS A
LOT OF POTENTIAL MOTOR HAS PLENTY OF POWER I PUT IT IN TO LAST IT
LOOKS LIKE IT CAME OUT WITH A 350CHEVY FROM THE FACTORY, ALSO IT
HAS A 12 BOLT POSI REAR END. THE CORNERS OF THE SPOILER THAT ARE CHIPED OFF
