81 Eagle SX4
« on: January 29, 2013, 04:00:44 PM »
I'm selling my 1981 AMC Eagle SX4, 4.2L inline 6 cylinder motor with auto transmission and all wheel drive. Runs good, although its a little cold blooded on startup when its cold out. I've replaced most of the vacuum hoses and rebuilt the carb. Transmission shifts good. Just replaced upper ball joints and control arm bushings, lower control arm bushings, and sway bar links. Heat works great, A/C was retrofitted and charged last summer (worked good). Cruise control works. Exterior is in good shape, underside in good shape with no rust problems, just a slight amount of surface rust starting. Interior is in good shape, there is one crack on the dash panel. Has a nice Grant steering wheel. Hood release handle is not broken and still functions properly. I installed a retro looking, but modernish stereo and replaced the front speakers. It does have a few issues: needs a new headliner, driver's window switch is a little finicky, needs rear hatch struts, and the plastic rocker panel is cracked near rear wheel. Has steel wheels with factory hubcaps on it now, although I have a set of alloy wheels I can put on instead if preferred (see pics). Overall, a very nice Eagle in great shape for the year, you would be hard pressed to find one with a body in this good of shape. Asking $3400 but am open to offers (no trades). Located in Lincoln, NE. Thanks.
