Hi from Northern NM!
« on: November 28, 2014, 12:06:28 AM »
Wanted to say high I just joined today. After a 15 year break I finally found an Eagle again.  I had one I loved in the late 90's and have been trying to figure out why I sold it since then.  It was a great car that I drove for a long time and even made a trip from New Mexico to Massachusetts and back.  She only left me stranded once when the fuel pump went out.  I also grew up in AMC's my dad had a Concord and Jeep Wagoneer when I was growing up.  Anyway I'm glad to be back in an Eagle and have just about got the carb sorted on the one I picked up for $700 from a used car lot cause he couldn't get it to run in gear.  I adjusted the carb a bit to nurse it home.  Anyway I look forward to getting to know everyone as I get this girl back to her former glory.  BTW it's a blue 84 with a 4.2.  Wish my luck tomorrow I'm going to try and get the valve cover to seal.

Question answered on your other post!
AMC/Jeep gauges are for amusement only. Any correlation between them and reality is purely coincidental!

Thanks for all the welcomes.  Looks like we are almost neighbors I'm about 60 miles from the border...  And yes when you're in Taos you mostly just want to go home.

I always wondered why it wasn't called the aerie?
