One of a kind, Not another one like it in the world.
$6,900 offers considered, some partial trades may be considered, but would really like to sell. I've found another vehicle I would like to purchase.

-1987 AMC Eagle Wagon 119,000 miles
-Chevrolet 5.3L engine and 4L60E from '03 Silverado I was told 45,000 miles on these when installed, nothing to verify that though.
-NP231 transfer case with SYE
-Custom lifted suspension with Fox coilovers up front
-Dana 44 front axle with locking hubs, 4.56 gears and factory LSD
-Ford Explorer 8.8" rear axle with disc brakes, 4.56 gears and factory LSD
-315/75/16 Mickey Thompson MTZ on 16x8 5x5.5 wheels about 50% tread
-There is no rust. Car is originally from Nevada. The fenders and quarter panels have been cut to accommodate the large tires.
-Interior is in great shape. However, the front seats have a different insert than the back seats.
Bad:
-It doesn't have a front swaybar, but once you get used to it, it's not that bad.
-It also doesn't have any skid plates. It could use some protection from the rocks.
-Wiring harness is a little sloppy, but it works fine.
-There is a dent in the rear passenger door from a tree but have a replacement door to go with it.
-No cats.
Here is a list of things that I have done since purchasing the car:
-Installed Solid Axle Industry differential covers on both axles.
-Purchased and installed a 16" Spal electric fan. The previously installed 12" fan wasn't cutting it.
-Brand New full size spare tire and wheel
-New dual exhaust. Previously, the exhaust had the catalytic converters right up against the transmission with a bunch of little pieces of pipe welded together. It currently doesn't have cats. It did pass emissions in Utah with the other configuration but it was baking the transmission and was routed in a way that made the exhaust vulnerable.
-I had the A/C connected by a professional. He made custom lines and figured out the wiring.
It's a fun car, but after a dirt bike purchase, I don't feel the need to go off road much in a 4x4. The motorcycle is much more fun. ;D The car was an impulse buy when I was out west for work. It doesn't fit in my life plan right now and I am loosing money at my asking price. Car is located in Fayetteville, TN

The article is pretty old, but I wasn't sure if you had seen it or not so I thought I'd link it here. They have your old price in the ad too. I wonder if you can have them update the price and repost the article...see if it drums up any interest..

I saw that. I've seen it on a few more websites and people talking about it on another forum. I actually had a guy contact me this week from Washington that saw that article. He wants to buy it, but has to sell another car to get the funds. This weekend a buddy his helping me fix the dented door and we're(him mostly) going to paint the whole bottom half black from the body line down to get rid of the goofy black paint work the previous owner did.
Here's some more places they talk about it.

Good call on going two tone. Look forward to seeing how that turns out.

The sides have been painted with John Deere Blitz Black paint. It's a matte black and should be easy to touch u p in the event of some damage.

I added hood pins to the hood. Since the hood was cut to accommodate the tubing for the bumper/shock mounts, it would stick up in the corners.

Thanks, I agree. I almost don't want to sell it. :-\

Wow, I love the new paint!

Wow, I love the new paint!
Thanks. Just so potential buyers know, the white is the original almost 30 year old paint. It's got some chips and what not. Also, the black paint job is not show car quality. It's what I would call "off road" quality. There are a couple dings that were painted over and the body work on the rear door that had the dent isn't the best, but looks much better than it did.

I would love to have your Eagle. That thing is so sweet.
-
How was the event you went to this weekend? No nibbles?
-
I had to leave early. My dad was watching my Jack Russell and the dog was having some serious medical issues.
-
Price drop to $6.500 obo. I injured my shoulder on my dirt bike, which required surgery and I will be out of work 2 months while recuperating.

The funny thing is, I made the decision to keep it and then I got 2 different guys within one day that wanted to buy it. I would have liked to get more for it, but I can use the money to pay some bills and move on to the next project. The new owner found it posted here on the Den and I told him to join. Hopefully he will.
