1972 AMC Javelin SST 37864 Miles Trans Am Red All paperwork including window sticker, bill of lading, ownerID card, bill of sale, service & owner manuals, etc. It was ordered with EVERY option. Believed to have been special ordered for an AMC exec by 'Ben Carco's Bonanza American', Hollywood, CA. Bill of sale shows it being sold 'new' on 3/10/72 with 3549 miles fromthe same dealer. It is possibly the only SST with Cowl induction. Hood insulation pad is factory original. Etched sill plates.A totally loaded,401 SST. Engine tag: 410Z22. Door tag: 028595, 7279-7, 266R, D7, W028823. Has original mini spare & air bottle.
Was put into dry storage in 1982for 12 years with 32000 miles. Stripped to metal & repainted 15 years ago. I bought it 10 years ago with 36,000 miles. Paint still shows nicely, but I would call it 'driver quality', has some smallblemishes that shouldn't be too hard tofix. Two small rust spots are developing on each lower corner of the rear window and one on the lower passenger corner of the windshield shouldn't be a hard fix. Door hinges are tight withno play as you'd expect from a low mileage car. Basic maintenance done, such as fluid changes, water pump, brakes, shocks, new exhaust, tires, master cylinder, etc. Luggage rack removed at time of repaint. Have folder of receipts. Seat inserts replaced with duplicated factory pattern & color.
Runs & drives great with clean exhaust, the 401 engine gives it a great pick up. Super fun to drive and show at local meets.
This Javelin appeared in several episodes of the 2015 Telemundo TV Novela "Dueños Del Paraiso", I have the clips from each episode where the car was featured, and will provide a DVD with them.
In September of 2015, Hemming’s Motor New featured the Javelin in a 4-page article of its monthly magazine (pages 50-53) Click HERE to See the Hemming's Article.
About 4 years ago, the Javelin was exhibited in the Memory Lane exhibit of the Miami International Auto Show. I have the plaque and picture and I also have a bunch of trophies and awards we have earned during the past 10 years. Sorry, they will stay with me, those and all the pictures I have, will be my memories of the car which I have enjoyed so very much.
