Vehicle Description
The Basil family has implemented a tradition of excellence in fine
new, pre-owned and classic automobiles since 1951.
This 1974 Javelin AMX represents the final year of American Motors
muscle cars which were produced over a seven year period. American
Motors final performance entry prior to their demise was the
1971-1974 Javelin and Javelin AMX. This model was a timeless
designed five passenger pony car which offered a wide array of
engine options ranging from a 232ci six cylinder base engine in the
Javelin to a stout 401ci engine topping off the line in the Javelin
AMX.
This 1974 Javelin AMX is one of only 4,980 produced in the American
Motors final run of vehicles in the US, making it a very rare and
collectable automobile.
Its stand-alone body style is like no other with its eye catching
fender flares to its extended nose appointment sporting a slender
chrome front bumper, a mesh style grill exclusive to the AMX and
it's black "T" striped raised cowl hood. Adding to the sleek design
of this AMX are the body colored spoilers, one placed across the
lower front beneath the bumper and the second is placed high across
the upper trunk lid area. The styled steel wheels with trim rings
and chrome center caps nicely accented by the stainless wheel
opening moldings and white letter radial tires crave attention from
any onlooker.
The large rear deck window, rounded corner oversized taillight
assemblies and chrome bumper with black bumperettes make this
Javelin AMX just as appealing moving away from you as it is upon
approach. The factory pewter mist silver paint scheme with flush
mounted door entry handles and endlessly fluid body lines further
accentuate this timeless beauty.
Under the hood, we find a 390ci V8 engine nicely appointed with
chrome valve covers and air cleaner. Additionally equipped with air
conditioning and power steering, the V8 power is sent through a
three speed automatic transmission and gases are expelled through a
full length dual exhaust system.
Upon entry to the driver's seat, you are visually treated to an
aircraft style wraparound dashboard which blends into an automatic
shift and center console tucked between spacious black bucket
seats. While looking forward, you find a sport style steering wheel
mounted to a tilt steering column. The bold faced factory gauges
and AM/FM radio are appointed in neatly styled machined aluminum
with toggle switched lights and wipers mounted just beneath.
Additionally, an aftermarket tach and engine gauge package have
been installed. Once you see this excellent example of a final year
Javelin AMX, you'll want to be the one to take it home. Come on in
and see for yourself.
