Anything for 'humpback' Javelins? Hoping to have sources for replacement parts (if needed) for when I get going on the 74.

Hmmm... bad lifter maybe? Perhaps some junk in the oil got to it. (are you using fram filters? I used to until I had a bad experience with one and 0psi oil pressure. 15 minutes of filter change,...

So I have my 74... just wondering what the factory paint code is; it's a light green with a subtle metallic look to it. It's since been repainted what I am told is a "ford green" metallic. Any...

Tonight I browsed the photo gallery, and some of the users here are good with the camera! I want to save these to my computer in a file, then assaign the screensaver to use the pics from that file...

I found this 1996 Jeep Cherokee for a good price, it's got the 4.0 sixer/slushbox in it, and I'm wondering, assuming it's had good maitenence, and isn't beaten on, how many miles I should expect it...

welcome to the forums, glad there's more people here :D

if I had a shell and a chassis, and the money, heck I'd go for it. Unfortunately, I'm a 20-year old college student. :(

wiring diagrams are also in oem service manuals... in the back. :D

AMC Parts Links (found by me!) :)

Did anyone at HR.com have any ideas? I'm personally reaching out to the AMC guys there and inviting them here so we have a nice AMC knowledge base, and since this site is still fairly small, if a...

I would believe it to be clutch fitment issues with the sizes and all, but I'm no transmission man.

An excellent resource is www.hotrodders.com they're good guys but AMC knowledge is limited...

I have a 71 TSM if anyone needs info I'm willing to scan it. Of course 71-74 were essentially the same car, which is why I got it understanding my 74Jav.

Paul (New2AMC), welcome to the forums :D

what about reproduction floorpans, and other parts too? FIberglass would work. I do know that someone makes 'glass hoods and fenders for humpback Javs, but I lost where the site was.

NOS=new old...

awesome link... I have a 71 AMC tsm. It's not too bad for my 74. Essentially the same stuff but not quite, they made some changes over the 3 years but the point gets across. :)

Somewhere, sometime, I found a place that makes fiberglass hoods and fenders for 'humpback' Javelins... have a fiberglass shop make an exact copy of the earlier AMC Ram-Air scoop and have them put it...

pic of car. it's beautiful, and such a loss. :(

I'm copying this from the Buick Performance Group board to as many message boards as possible in the remote chance that someone might see it

I have a 74 Javelin with a stock 360 that my dad owned since new, other than a Holley carb swap (600 or 650cfm, dad forgot) with mechanical secondaries, emissions junk yanked out, and an open-element...

I have heard that the rear cylinders run hotter than the fronts, I believe that there was some sort of modification that could fix this.

Other than that, it's already been covered (cracked head,...

Does anyone know where good repro AMC parts can be found? The junkyards have long since sent every last AMC to China in little pieces. :mad:

or at least it seems like it.

This is especially...

I would agree with the above, mostly emissions and minor tweaks that generally went unnoticed.

Does anyone have any recommendations for homebuilt or to-buy frame stiffening components, and/or subframe connectors? Thanks,
matt
p.s. the car is a 74 Jav. :)

theres a lot of forums (subjects) for the number of posts made and users, other than that I think its a great site, we just need more people! :D

I go to www.hotrodders.com a lot and like their...

I know its near a place (its a campground sort of thing) called Sandy Pines, which is near a little town called Hopkins.

p.s. i hope i kept the paper saying where it is!

dealer modified cars (yenko and berger and baldwin camaros) usually have some paperwork stating that is so, and if the car has some then I'd call it something special, if it was a factory 401 then...
