    I like that! Too bad it doesn't have A/C. :(

    When my grandfather was trying to give me his '76 AMC too bad it wasn't one of these instead of a Gremlin. lol.

    Minor damage on the front passenger door. Judging from that I can say that it was hit HARD on that door, shot out of an erupting volcano, flooded and then was rolled (I also see a ding on the roof rack).

    I've got one of those Hornet Javelin woodie wagon convertables in bright red, with the optional roof rack and wire wheels. Plus mine has the optional contenental kit, fender skirts,wide white wall tires, and dual spotlights, with factory AC and stereo, with fuzzy dice and hornet emblems on the glove box door.:yup:
    And that's the truth!:bouncy:

    The only thing I see that I don't like is that it does not have A/C. ;) That and the fact that I do not have the money to buy it. lol.

    I just checked again. That's an amazing amount of nice photos. Everything looks really clean except the right front door. Even that is not terrible at certain angles. Possibly a lot of those creases could be pushed out from behind.
    Sure looks worth the price.

    anyone else notice the radiator hose clamp holding on the shifter's rubber knob? I wonder how many years it's been like that?

    Wouldn't duct tape be more comfortable?

    Observations:

    - Wood's been re-done not too long ago. Then the RT FRT door (and fender) got hit.
    - Somebody's a GOOD detailer. Although I'm sure this low-mile example was nice, I'm pretty sure it wasn't that nice before it was put up for sale.
