AMC RULES 37,124 #1 Posted January 7, 2011 Where I live, just around the bend from USMA West Point, NY. 50 miles north of NYC on the mighty Hudson River. My '73 AMC Javelin AMX, fresh from paint back in the fall of '09. My '88 520-H set up for snow duty, fall '10. Out for a stretch today, Jan '11. :banghead: 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AMC RULES 37,124 #13 Posted February 6, 2016 FYI...the Jav/AMX is long gone, sold last year. Recent reports are, the new owner has parted it out. Miss it, sure...but glad to have replaced it with better things. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 40,971 #14 Posted February 6, 2016 Now why would someone part it out? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ACman 7,618 #15 Posted February 7, 2016 Some people just don't care , have a clue ( common sense ) or see the worth of somethings keeping it whole . We see it all the time even on here . Buy on one site , next week you see the parts on another . Not to say I haven't taken advantage of people doing this . Probably half of my parts I've acquired this way. IMO It's hard for me to see something running or near complete to part it out . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMC RULES 37,124 #16 Posted February 7, 2016 Bought it just for the engine... pulled it, and the rest was junk to him. See this with tractors all the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, originally came up from Texas in this... so, thanks for jogging my memory John. Just, normal operating proceedure for him to do. 53 minutes ago, DennisThornton said: What is on the back of the 520? Weight bracket Dennis... last seen hanging off the FEL tractor I have here.

That bracket is pretty substantial! Man is it ever! Doesn't say "Homemade!" to me but I've never seen one like it! Can't quite see how is it mounted...

shallowwatersailor 3,213 #21 Posted February 7, 2016 A J-Series would be nice to have. Actually I wouldn't mind having my CJ-7 still. The 304 in that got the same mileage as my GM 8.1 liter. What surprises me is that I see a few 'Binder pickups driving around here in Maryland! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That actually makes me sick to my stomach for 2 reasons. 1: that you think there is anything better then that sweet 401 javelin, and 2: that some moron parted it out!!!
