Default My 69 AMX Project

Just got myself this 69 amx. Needs alot of work but I plan on putting an corvette chassis and driveline under it maybe a turbo or two, which I seem to be getting pleny of crap for from the AMC guys for doing. Not much to look at right now but it will get there eventually. Body will remain stock as will the interior.

I love those cars, should be a very cool project. AMC borrowed parts from other manufacturers anyway.......................

I've always liked that body style. I could see it as a cool PT car.

Well I gotta get my nova at least on the road and to the body shop before I start on the X. Its sooo far gone I would have to fab my own custom stuff anyway so I figure why not make it handel better, and be more reliable as well.

Default Cut the Bitch UP!

I dont care if its a numbers matching "big bad" car!

Everyone here will love you even more for ... Improving uppon AMC's design

Heres my work in progress... I think Im going for an old school road race look/theme with mine.... Minus the horrendous red white blue paint job.
