Hello From Minnesota Talon/Javelin/Firebird

[Torquedork]

My father owns a 1973 AMC Javelin AMX. It has the tic-tach dash and Pierre Cardon interior. This is the next car on my build list for this winter. I feel I owe it to my father and I know with out my help, I doubt he will ever get it done. So far he has built a motor for it, 401 with a high rise intake and demon carb. (this is about all that I know on the engine though I do know much more was done to it. He has allot of time and research into the build)

This car is my main reason for joining the site. This winter we hope to clean it up. I'd like to make the bumpers fit as they should, they may get re-chromed or maybe painted. Something has to be done with the drip rails as they stick out waaaay too far. Would like to see it on a set of 17 inch rims. Something more modern but still with a decent sidewall as this is what my father likes. Currently the car is very rust free and very straight, the color is an orangish red with the white AMX "T" on the hood. Dad wants the same red as my Talon (Penske Dodge Viper Red) and a black AMX "T".

Any other AMX owners on here? Anyone with some more info on pro-touring these?

Brian,

Here's my Bronze '71 AMX but check out the link below of my friend's Pewter '73 AMX




My friend just joined and posted photos of his '73 AMX he just finished. This will give you some ideas!

Both AMAZING! That is the first time I have seen an actual pro-street style Javelin.

The red stripe on the bottom chrome trim piece looks great. I think I will keep that in mind. Obviously there is much more to the car, but I like the subtle things.
