Status: offline 		Nitro...sold a Javelin? Damn! one of my favorite cars EVER, next to the AMX and the first gen Torino and the '70-72 Cutlass and a few others...

I hope your dad gets the AMX. I passed on a '70 Javelin about 7 or 8 years ago and i've been kicking myself in the butt ever since it was a rust-free car in Michigan...how often does THAT happen?

Status: offline 		Every weekend I drive buy a shop that has at least 3 amx's or javelins and wonder when I am going to buy one for myself, As of now my dad and I have too many projects going so we don't have the time to build one but the day will come soon hopefully.

Those TT's really look great on that car and it is a great color too.

Status: offline 		It's a shop that buys wrecked cars and fixes them up, they have one finished AMX and I think two unfinished javelins. The AMX has been for sale for a while but it doesnt look too good up close, they must have rushed the resto. I don't know the status on the unfinished cars but If you like I can check it out for you.

Status: offline 		What condition car are you looking for? two of them are really beat up needing a full ground up restoration and the AMX is complete but done very poorly, I wouldnt recommend these cars unless you want something to restore.

I will stop by as soon as I can to find out prices and years.

Status: offline 		well we would prolly only be interested in the AMX cuz we are looking for something that needs a little work, so if you could find out what he wants for it that would be awesome. if the price is reasonable we would be interested. also see if u can find out 3 things: motor size? 4 speed? go pac car? thanks man for doing this i appreciate it, just pm me when u find out something, or u can just post on here thanks.
