There is enough stuff here to completely do a Javelin into an AMX clone and you will have lots of stuff left over. I parted out 3 Javelins in the last 15 years and purchased a completely dismantled AMX as well. I never went through some of the boxes. The green AMX interior is really nice. I know it limits your color choice, but that stuff can be vinyl dyed. The grill screen is nice and can be used as is. The plastic grill bucket will need some restoration work, but most of these have disappeared as they are VERY fragile. One of the 360 shortblocks came out of a 74 AMX, the other is out of a jeep. You have the most important thing to do a 71 Javelin: NOS taillights. They are a one year only item and nobody makes a reproduction. You CANNOT find them ANYWHERE. I have maybe seen 2 or 3 sets for sale on ebay in 15 years of hoarding. These are unobtanium and I mean it. The factory installed ones deteriorated and the used ones look rough (they are close to 50 years old). You will not find them. If there was one thing I want keep out of this, it would be the taillights. I want to put them on a shelf in my living room and stare at them. You will need to have the taillight housings rechromed, they are pitted. One of the cowl induction hoods is in really good shape, the other needs work. Most of the fenders look good, the set on the car are immaculate. The doors on the car are in great shape. The rimblow horn will need work (most do). Factory tilt is rare on one of these. You will need probably two rigs to haul all this stuff. I would recommend a cattle trailer for most of the parts and another truck/trailer for the car. If you can figure out how to haul it all in one trip, be my guest. The car has crappy tires that will hold enough air to move onto a trailer, but that is it. As far as body work, like I said, I was going to put the full quarters on it, (btw, these came from the west coast-you also cannot find full quarters for these cars and nobody makes a full quarter replacement) but I did a good job on the patch panels if you wanted to keep them. Other than that, there is no rust in the trunk and the floor still looks great. The car did have a partial vinyl top which had some minor rust that I fixed and the patch panels will need finished (small area near rain gutters). I was not going to put the vinyl roof back on.

Some of this stuff will never be found again. If I got into this hobby now and wanted to build an AMX, I know I wouldn’t find the quarters, taillights, the AMX only interior-the stuff has dried up. I have driven to Phoenix, Tulsa, Oklahoma City, to get most of this and scavenged what I could from southwest Missouri. I’d like to think I have done my part to make sure some Kenosha iron survived. All off this is located in Springfield, Missouri. I am selling in one lump. Dont ask me to separate it, I dont want to do that. I am dangling the NOS taillights and AMX stuff as the icing on the cake to sell all the big sheetmetal parts/engines. If you have questions, please contact me. You have to take ALL the Javelin parts.
