THIS IS AN AMAZING CAR THAT HAS BEEN WELL CARED FOR. IAM THE 3rd CARETAKER & KNOW THE CARS ENTIRE HISTORY INCLUDING THE OWNERS & WHERE THE CAR HAS BEEN. IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN GARAGED SO THERE IS NO SERIOUS RUST. THE 343, 4 BARREL IS POWERFUL BUT NOT A POWER HOUSE EITHER: A NICE BLEND OF GOOD GAS MILES & GREAT ACCELERATION. THE SUSPENSION IS WONDERFUL & BELIEVE IT OR NOT THIS CAR HAS ONE OF THE BEST RIDES OF ANY AMERICAN MID SIZE CAR IN 1969. THE ORIGINAL OWNER WAS A MAN NAMED MADDEN IN SCOTTSBLUFF, NE & HE MUST HAVE BEEN A SMART MAN BECAUSE HE ORDERED THIS CAR WITH SO MANY GREAT OPTIONS & LIKELY PAID THE SAME PRICE AS A BASE IMPALA OR GALAXIE WOULD HAVE COST. IT COMES WITH BUCKET SEATS, CONSOLE, TILT STEERING, CRUISE CONTROL, POWER DISC BRAKES, POWER STEERING, ETC. THE CAR HAS NO ISSUES THAT NEED ADDRESSED. IT STARTS EASILY, IDLES GREAT, MOVES OFF THE LINE AS QUICKLY OR SLOWLY AS YOU DESIRE, SHIFTS WITHOUT ISSUE, DOESNT LEAK, SMOKEOR USE FLUIDS & BRAKES BETTER THAN MOST VINTAGE CARS! THE PAINT IS GETTING OLD BUT IS VERY PRESENTABLE: ENOUGH TO WIN A BIG TROPHY LAST YEAR! ;) THE INTERIOR IS COMFORTABLE WITH NO RIPS OR SERIOUS DAMAGE ANYWHERE. THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT IS STOCK AS IS THE TRUNK AREA.IT COMES WITH A BOOSTER SEAT MADE FROM ORIGINAL MATERIALS FOR THE ORIGINAL OWNERS VERY TINY WIFE, I AM TOLD. THE CAR COMES WITH MANY PAGES OF DOCUMENTS, THE OWNERS MANUAL & OTHER CAR PAPERWORK. THE GREAT THING ABOUT CLASSIC AMC AT THE MOMENT IS THE VALUE TO COST RATIO: YOU GET A CAR THAT WOULD COST $20K TO RESTORE FOR ALMOST HALF THE PRICE.
THE REASON ITS BEING OFFERED IS TO MAKE ROOM FOR A LONG TERM RESTORATION PROJECT. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO COME & LOOK AT THE CAR IN PERSON & IF THAT ISNT POSSIBLE BECAUSE OF DISTANCES INVOLVED I WILL BE HAPPY TO TALK ABOUT THIS WONDERFUL CAR ON THE PHONE. IT IS BEING OFFERED LOCALLY ON CRAIGSLIST: YOU CAN GET MY NUMBER THERE: CARS FOR SALE, OWNERS,ROANOKE, VA.
