    hi everyone

     



    i've got a 71 javelin sst 360 4 speed and a 74 javelin 360 auto.

    i'm building the 74 to have fun in. i put a rebuilt 63 ford 9 inch with a thirdmember from a 77 ranchero with 3.70 gears in it.
    i'm building a amc 401 with indy heads and intake, 750 holley, a small hyd roller cam 224/232 @ .050 540/560 lift, 10.7 to 1, 1 7/8 hooker super comps, 727 trans with a ati 3500 10 inch stall. motor will be done in two more weeks. should drive really nice on the street. i might put a 232/240 @.050 in a year or so if i want more power. girlfriend wants to run it at the track too.

    i thought my hotrod days where over but the girlfriend of 8 years was bugging me she wanted a hot rod. i was looking for a 68-69 gtx or a 68-69 camaro or firebird. she ran across the 74 javelin and i told her we would get the javelin until we found what we were looking for and then sell it. well i drove it home and really liked the car, so we got another one for her.

    i know a lot of people look down on amc's but i really like the javelins and the amx's now. i looked down on amc's myself before i drove that javelin home.
    i have to tell you i really like going to shows and people coming up and saying i haven't see one of those in 15-20 years. if they know what it is. people call it a mustang, mach1 and camaro all the time. to tell you the truth i hadn't seen one in 20 years before i bought one.

    and just a few amc fact's. the amc 360 is not a mopar 360. the amc 390 is not ford motor and the amc 327 is not a chevy motor. i have people try to tell me that they are all the time.
