I wonder if anyone has done that here yet. This one is being sold as a parts car too...If I had the 1800 bucks Id do it in a heart beat..Ill bet it would bolt up fairly easy...An Amx eagle would be hot, especially on an SX4 or kamback

A parts car? is it missing a title or something? Even if it has frame rot - everything is repairable with the right knowledge and time... and that baby looks to be in pretty good shape. Don't bother posting any info on it, lol... I've got too much debt right now as it is, LOL!

Woah! Yeah... wow, that's bad. It could be done, but it would be one heckuva job.

I'd just swap everything over to a Spirit or Eagle though. Spirit would be easier though with the tranny hump I think. For $1800 I hope that the interior is like brand new because, besides the interior and the front clip... the rest can be found on an Eagle. Speaking of which, you may want to remove that link - not sure you can link to that stuff. But you can share the info with whomever would like to see it via PM. I could be wrong though - just wanted to give you a fair warning in case it goes "poof", lol.

Still, a great pic - thanks for sharing! amc78concord said it best when he said...

EDIT - Oh upon further investigation... I just realized what body style that was. Quite different from and eagle/spirit in the rear end. Shame it's rusted out. It's deff a parts car unless someone wants to put a LOT of time into it... which I'd glady do if anyone wants to saveit and donate it to me for the cause!  ;D

The poor thing sat in tall weeds for alot of years. If it had only been parked on cement or better yet a garage I think that thing would have aged alot more gracefully. Its so sad to see... those Levis AMX's are so rare!!!

Yeah, very sad to see the shape of that AMX... it makes me want to revert to the stone age neanderthal buried deep in my subconsious (or not so deep, lol) and beat people with a stick.

And amc78concord, you just ain't right man! ;)
