I've been lurking here for quite a while, finally decided to join up.
Have a couple of AMC's, a '72 Ambassador wagon and a '69 AMX.

I'm planning on some suspension mods to the wagon in the future and am trying to get the AMX running. The AMX pic is about three years old. I'll add a post for it in the pro-street area. Both are still AMC powered.

Welcome to the site. Cars look great, and there are other AMC's running around here you'll enjoy also. Yours are still AMC powered huh?

Thanks, seen a couple of other AMC's here, a lot of great builds and ideas here.
I'm a bit of a "purist" in that I like seeing the same make engine with the car. Think it can be more creative modding the original than just swapping in a LS. Nothing against the LS, would like to build one too sometime, limited room and resources. Besides, I've accumulated quite a bit of AMC parts over the years.


This is my current "eye candy" set-up in the wagon:

rjsjea: don't know why some can see the pics and why you can't.
