With sadness I must sell my Eagles. I am no longer physically able to perform the upkeep required to maintain any 24+ year old vehicle in daily driver condition.
This 1988 AMC Eagle is daily driver quality. It would be a daily driver except I have too many daily drivers to drive daily.
Located in central Arkansas.
$2500.
Papal, please. We can work out a deposit and storage for a limited time with the buyer.
Arkansas does not have vehicle inspections. The lucky buyer will be responsible for inspections.
If the buyer wants it transported we will help load it but cannot arrange shipping.
We may be able to deliver it within a few hours of Little Rock.
Bought with about 95,500 miles December 2005.
We bought it on eBay in Philadelphia and drove it home to Little Rock.
Now has about 127,000 miles so all repairs and upgrades have been made within the last 32,000 miles.
Belts and hoses have been replaced as necessary.
