BID TO WIN
Heres an idea, ONT BID UNLESS you are a REAL BUYER
I wouldnt expect bidders to be such flakes on a car this
cool, ut the last auction did show me who takes this serious
and who dont. IF You have less then 10 feedbacks, ou have
to email me if you bid on the car. If you dont, e will cancel it.
IF we email you to check your sincerity on buying the car and
dont get a reply within 24 hours.. You will be cancelled and
blocked too from bidding.
Would I end it early ? sure for a fair offer..
The AMX is one of the most sought after cars these days just
under the 69 Camaro, 0 Mustang fastbacks and similar yr
Challengers. .,. this is a good chance to get one, efore they
are un obtainable !!
Also, heck out this auction on a real PC or tablet, ot a phone
to best view all the pics !
Go look for another AMX this rust free with such low miles
and some good options like this, hey just are not out there.
Fix the mechanics
Redo the interior and drive it JUST LIKE THAT....not restored
fully, he rat rod, urvivor Muscle car look.
Look, ou can always paint it and fix the dents, ut the value
of the car is going to go up whether you do it or not.
In 1968 only 2287 AMXs came with the 390 and auto trans.
this car has other options making it even more desireable.
AC PDB Am-Fm radio and more ! We can help get it shipped
for a fair price too anywhere.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION:
the story on this car is as cool as the car, nd I got the story from
the original owner 2 months before he passed away.
This one owner car was special ordered in 68 w/ AC back in Jersey.
Once it came in, he owner moved to a small town in Az called ELFRIDA.
Population a few hundred, aybe a few more today. It was close to a
mining town. From 69-75 the car was driven, ut never had alot of miles
put on it because of the small town etc. It got a few bumps and dents until
1976 where it took a hit to the RR. The owner was so fed up with it being
hit and no real shop close enough to properly fix it, e decided to park the
car. Its been sitting since 1976 here in Az, / only 18k on the odometer.
Under the hood you can see 90% of it original fasteners and hardware.
THIS WEEK: we ran a fuel line from the fuel pump to small source of fresh
gas, nd with a hotwire from the battery to the coil, t came to life after
somepersuasion. Ive started it about 10 times now and have moved it
around using the ebrake to stop. Now I know the motor is good, br>we are going to bleed the
brakes next and attempt a maiden run around the parking lot tomorrow.
(email us for updates or just keep checking at the bottom of the description
for updates too)
DONT BID UNLESS YOU HAVE THE FUNDS IN HAND, pparently some people
who use ebay arent smart enough to understand the rules.
So if you have under 10 feedbacks, ll be emailing you if you bid to
make sure you are legit, f we do please reply or we will cancel your bid.
Up for Auction: LOW FAIR RESERVE !!!
These cars are getting harder to find esp in this condition
that are still affordable to most buyers.
DRIVETRAIN: this car has its factory 390 big block V8 with the Mopar
transmission and AMC rearend, hich Im pretty sure it a a posi. Factory
AFB and air cleaner all there (auto cars didnt come with the smog pump)
Very original under the hood, till needs work to be a driver, ut we know
the motor runs. Check back in a few days to see how driveable we get it.
Again Ive heard the motor start with the key, e are just trying to make
it a little more driveable to shipping purposes.
INTERIOR: take a look at the pics, he interior of this car is pretty well
worn out and probably the first thing you would want to repair. Fix the
interior and take care of all the mechanics and drive it the way it is.
The car gets alot of attention just the way it sits. The original interior was
a charcoal color with floor shift / buckets and 90% of it is all still there
Making the restoration easier. FACTORY AC and Am-Fm Radio are some pretty
cool options as well.
EXTERIOR:the body and paint on this car dont get much more original
then what you are looking at. AZ has been really hard on the paint, ubber
and plastics, ut those areas are much easier to restore then rust and rot
like on most cars this old. Both door windows need regulators and or rollers
and restoration, ront windshield is cracked, ut rest of the glass in good nick.
The whole car really needs a good cleaning along with the some restoration.
I cant see over restoring this car but to make it a nice driver and keep the
paint as is... just fix the chrome and pull the dents.
SUSPENSION:the suspension looks normal from what I can see .. but old.
Even with only 18k on the suspension, here is barely any wear n tear on
stuff like the gear box etc.
ON THE CAR are the original 14" Magnun 500 rims and the car also has
PDB up front, nother great option.
No weird noises coming, ut Im sure its going to need some
bushings replaced in the near future because its not restored and of its age.
Minimal rust under the car, aking taking this car apart, lmost a breeze !!
Check out ALL the pics below ----->
it may take a full minute for them all to load ifyou have a
slow connection, o be patient AND looks for the extra scroll
bar on the right side.
Az gets maybe 12" a yr of rain and Az very dry climate.
more infoAFTER the pics etc. There are 100 large pics.
There you have it, robably The BEST represented AMXs on Ebay.
Shows you all the good as well as any bad, ope you appreciate them.
We put a lot of time and effort in marketing our cars and it shows.
People wait months for a car this solid to come up for sale
and even if you have to pay shipping to your area, t still beats
paying a body shop to hopefully fix a rusty car for weeks on end.
Having as much as the original steel on a restored car these days
speaks volumes. This is NOT OUR MOST RUST FREE CAR we have
sold over the years, ut its still better then most out there for sale
or bondo-ed up to look restored.
Also, f you buy a car thats been "restored", ho knows what sort
of surprises are hidden under new paint or thick undercoating.
People are flipping cars all the time when most of the jobs are
fast, or a quick buck and quality suffers.
Email us with ANY questions before you bid please
Our Impeccable FEEDBACK speaks for itself. We show you as
much feasibly possible via pics.
Dont let auctions withlittle to no pics try to fool you.
If they cant take the time to take pics of areas under the car they
are selling, aybe its not the best car to buy long distance.
With other auctions, nbsp;you really dont know what to expect
until you take the car apart. While we go over our cars ALL OVER
with great pics to help making your decision easier.
Along with ANY other questions you may have.

UPDATE 2/19
For sitting so long
the motor sounds great. We did a dist cap and wires on it, ut Im
sure it could use some new plugs. I even took a video. The stock
fuel pump works and we are still running it off a small container of
fuel under the hood. It sits there and idles at about 600 rpm with
no smoke or weird noises. The car has plenty of torque !! Just touchthe throttle and the car wants to jump. If I can get the brakes to pump
up Im plan on driving it around the block once !!
