Finally got my next project car!!!!!

[Gus]

Sweet, there's a nice Mark Donohue Javelin in town, definitely a head turner.

They are a cool little car. I've always liked them. Still can't believe I found it at this price. I'd kinda like to build up the old I6 that's in it. It'd be pretty neat to do. Was already on ebay looking for stuff. Have to get the front disc brakes off a 71-77 AMC car, that way I can ditch the drums. Just got it to the shop a little while ago.

^^ BREMBOS! brembo all the way lol

 

[Gen1Pat]

Only if you pay for them. I've found Wilwood kits on ebay. They are going for nearly 800. I can probably track down drilled and slotted rotors somewhere for the factory setup. Once I get small block in it I'm going to have to throw a ford 9" rear under her. She only has a little amc or chrystler 10 bolt. Not going to hold up.

So wheres the pictures of the actual car??

 

[Gen1Pat]

I told a bunch this morning once I got it to work. Will post them this evening when I get home. Probably around 6ish. They are on my old as dirt phone, so, they are not the best. I was looking for the CL add but they fella removed it.

Ya build the 6 not many do it will probably be a pretty torquey motor and get great mileage

 

[Gen1Pat]

I've thought about it. It would be cool as hell. Comp has 4 or 5 cams for it. Haven't looked elsewhere. I can make my own header, port the head some, would like to do dual carbs. Turbo would be neat. lol

I've seen worse. lol
The rear quarters are a bit nasty though. Whats the trunk look like?

 

[Gen1Pat]

What you see in the quarter panels is about all there is. Just a little bit in the trunk, and I just found the frame just below the drivers side upper rear control arm mount has rotted through on the inside. Will have to make a plate that is maybe 6" long. Shouldn't be a big deal. Other then small 1/2 and 1" rust through below the rear window along side the trunk lid, that is it. It's super clean. I ment to take a short vid of it running. Sounds pretty cool.

 

[Gen1Pat]

I'll get some pics of the trunk tomorrow. I found a 5 piece trunk pan kit on ebay. Don't need it though. Just make my own panels will be easy enough.

Please keep the 6cyl!

 

[Gen1Pat]

It's a cool little engine. Runs decent.

 

[YAMAHAULER]

what size 6 is it Pat?

 

[Gen1Pat]

Think I found the answer to the front drum brakes. Read 20 pages worth of feedback, and all the AMC owners gave it very good remarks. And, Hauler, it's a 232.
