(Please note: If you happen to be viewing this vehicle on a website
other than our main website, it's possible that only some of our
many photographs of this car are presented due to website
limitations. To be sure you access all the photographs, please go

Hardtop from American Motors Corporation is a pretty groovy piece
of American car history. Styling similar to the muscle cars rolling
out of Detroit, this car had similar looks in a smaller package. A
V8 under the hood, bucket seats, and aggressive looks had muscle
car buyers taking a second look. This SST was the higher trim level
on the Javelins, and this car has plenty of options to speak of.
Factory Cruise Control, Positraction, Dual Chrome Mirrors, Tinted
Glass, Luggage Rack, Buckets w/ console, Am Radio, Vinyl Top,
Bumper Guards, and original 14 steel wheels with full wire hubcaps.
Also has a new battery, new brakes, new headliner, new carburetor,
and a working factory Clock. The Javelin's styling resembled that
of many of the Muscle Cars on the market in a slightly smaller
package. An aggressive looking front end at the front of the car
with a simple raked back end gives this two door hardtop a tough
stance. The body on this particular Javelin is in great condition
and looks to have been repainted once in the original color a
number of years ago. The car was optioned with bumper guards front
and rear. The paint is glossy, and all trim, lights, and glass are
in great shape. Inside the car the SST trim package featured a
number of extras. A three spoke sport steering wheel, wood trim on
the dash and door panels, and reclining seatbacks were a few items
that a tick on the SST box on the order sheet got you. Inside this
particular car is a very tidy interior, which is believed to be
original. Other notable items are an original AM Radio, and 'Cruise
Command' Cruise Control. The 290ci V8 under the hood features a
2BBL carburetor, and is highly original other than an MSD 'Blaster'
ignition coil and new carburetor. Three speed shift command
automatic transmission gave the driver the option to shift through
the gears on their own, or leave it in Drive. A taller shifter
lever was close at hand much like a manual transmission shifter
would be. This groovy vintage AMC is in awesome condition and since
it's an SST has a number of great extras. Purchase this Javelin and
you can enjoy both the sound and power of the V8 while in the well
appointed cabin - just make sure the car is garage kept. Be sure to
