AMC made something cool…..who knew?

Will do from post #54 on.

When I do show a working link I actually copy down on a piece of paper the links letters up top Some are like 80 letters and symbols
Pretty pathetic on my part isn't it.

 

No, not really.
At least you found a way to post a link.

Like with everything in life: when nobody shows you how to do it, you will never learn....
It's not complicated when you know how to do it!

 

The car weighs 2850 lbs, I would think 400 to 450 hp would bring it to its claimed 11.90 from what members have said on other cars in general.
Again that engine although sounding ok with some throttling it was still just to smooth. Has iron heads also and don't think there was much porting or if any done at all.. Ad 1000 lbs and your in GS territory and doing a 12.90 as a guess.

No way that AMC 401 is making Buick 455 Stage2 power..

 

Thanks NH 67.
Thats the thing no one immediately around me knows enough to help me and I got my first ever laptop 5 or 6 years ago.

 

This is going to auction in November

 

The Big Fish. I love those cars.

 

They do look good on the outside..
Didn't they also do very well in TransAm racing?

 

I believe that they won the Trans-Am championship in (I think) 1968. They also won a few NASCAR Winston Cup races.

 

Four AMC cars at Country Classic Cars in Staunton, IL (2008)

 

Also at CCC, a nice model year 1965 Marlin (2014)

 

AMC also owned Jeep from 1970 to 1986
the cj jeep’s got renamed the wrangler when Chrysler took it over in 87

 

And also the part above the front seats comes out.
It's the Concord-Griffith AM-TC convertible.

 

Here's the Eagle version, named the Sundancer:





Check out the video:

 

Here are both cars in an advertisement:

 

Ok that engine looks like it making some good power.. plus it's lightened plenty

Bryant Goldstone' s javelin ran a 6.63 in the quater during drag week. Yeah it's BBC powered but it's still an AMC.

 

I have only owned one AMC - it was a 1954 Statesman with a back seat that folded down into a full-sized bed.

 

of the girlfriend or the car?
