      New Project '73 AMX "Silver Bullet"

      I'm a new member that just signed on. Here are pictures of my latest project. It's a 1973 AMX. Not too many AMCs out there in the Pro-Touring world, but let let me know what you think of the car.

      Wow, well done! I've always had a love of those big-fendered bad-boys.
      Those are the only wheels I would have chosen too!

      More specs?

      Sexy! I didn't know much about the cars, or even noticed them really lol, till I moved to this house. One of my neighbors has a nice 72 Javelin!

      Very cool. Any time my dad sees a Javelin, he will tell about when the Highway Patrol got them in the early 70's. He said that they quit trying to outrun the Troopers when they were in Javelins. I like the color and the wheels look great too. The engine compartment looks awesome too.

      Wow!

      That is an incredible piece of work! Certainly not over the top and you're are right. It's what Mark Donohue would have built!

      WOW…what a great first post! The color is awesome and I like how the red calipers match the red / chrome at the bottom. It pulls your eyes across the car. Please give us more pics and specs on you build. Who took your pictures?

      It looks like we clicked the send button at the same time. Who built the car?

      The car has been a hoot to build. Believe it or not we just started the car at the end of October and finished it at the end of June or so. I shot the pictures of the car, and a friend did some Photoshop type of clean-up.
