1973 AMC Javelin.

Описание: Turn on subtitles/CC's if you'd like explanations on what I'm doing throughout the video.
I bought this 1973 AMC Javelin from a local towing company, the same place that sold me the '74 Torino. This one looks to have been someone's unfinished project and I imagine it's been off the road for about a decade, the last registration was 2014. On top of not running just from sitting, it's also missing a carburetor, ignition components, and was left with a handful of pieces unbolted. Nonetheless, the 360 v8 has a few upgrades, so it should be fun. Also, it's the least-rusty vehicle I've worked on in a while. The floors are more solid than anything around here.
