Looks to be in pretty good shape.What year is it and is it a Hornet? How much did you end up paying for it if you don't mind me asking?
1973 Amc Hornet 2dr sedan 232i6 A904 Torque command 3speed. 500bucks.
Look pretty good for it's age. Good luck finding parts!
Not sure the year but I remember seeing one recently at our local u-pick that looked like the same body style.Would you like me to see if it's still there the next time I go and if it has a good left brake light lense? Let me know.
love the passenger floor mat ;-)

It actually needs both but im broke right now and will be broke for who knows how long. Im gonna build the trany... I figure why not build it right. Performance steels and frictions and a shift kit.
It's in really good shape.
Funny, I use to have an AMC hornet station wagon...green. Guess what I called it?
My cousin used ti have a white waghon also. We called his the Hermit.
Lol My buddy nicknamed it the " Horn Dog" lol.
Heres a link to 50+ pics of it.http://forums.amceaglenest.com/index.php?topic=12133.0
Well a little update on the car. I got it tag and insured last monday...
Took it to school work and to the store park it. then on the way to mcdonalds with my sis she starts Knocking like a mofo..
So since i couldnt just leave the car had to limp it home i open the hood to pull as much timing as i can and see oil down the side of the block.
Blew the Head gasket... galled a piston pretty good....
So the motors out and torin down... i was gonna rebuild it with some high comp pistons and such but right now i cant afford to do that so im gonna pick up a used 258 or 232.
Ive got 2- 258s lined up for 200 but im still in the market havent bought one yet.
And since the motor was out i figured why not clean and paint the engine bay...
Bad piston
