Love it, they are a lot of fun, those AMC 390's are torque monsters. The Hood Scoop on your car is a later model ...... they made the original 500 then decided on 500 more and needed to re-make the scoop molds so they second ones got bigger opening and then the last 500 were even bigger.

Look at the scoop on the first car in this picture, that is an early 1st run scoop, you can see how small the opening is.

very underrated cars. That looks to be a killer resto on a pretty rare car. One owner stuff is great too.
Have fun with it!

Cool car, beautiful looking resto.
Always wanted one since there was a guy in high school that had one back in 70-71.

Great car and even better restoration. I bet finding parts for those cars can be fun!

The parts are hard to find for these cars, Luckily the car was complete. But the restoration of parts is VERY costly. This cars restoration is one of the best.

No this one is not in the 1512 registry....The registry is very much out of date, they still have me listed as the owner of one I sold 25 years ago... Lots of neat info there, just very much out of date

I think Joie's health is bad, hence the lack of updates. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/frown.gif
