For Sale: 1972 AMC Javelin in Coral Springs, Florida

Vehicle Description

Gateway Classic Cars of Fort Lauderdale is excited to present this beautiful classic 1972 AMC Javelin SST. Fresh Full Preservation of an All Original Survivor General Description: All numbers matching survivor with 99% of its factory parts date coded within weeks of the July 1972 build completion. Just completed extensive year-long professional preservation including its first ever repaint. Every effort spent returning this rare SST back to its factory original appearance, regardless of cost. Even has the original date coded engine, transmission, radiator, rear axle, carburetor, air conditioning system, intake and exhaust manifolds, plus much more. Pictures and video included with the sale, demonstrates this car was always highly maintained by two previous meticulous Southern owners. Prior to recent preservation, the car was an amazingly preserved all original survivor with its factory paint still showing nice luster. Along with all factory decals under the hood and chassis and drive shaft markings. Preservation Process It was a toss up to leave it as is, or restore it to its current pristine condition. As, after 45 years of well-maintained use, even the best of cars accumulates some minor bumps and bruises. So, the decision was made to perform a full preservation. It began by first video and photo documenting all aspects for originality, to ensure all the parts were correctly replaced. The bumpers, exterior trim, motor, exhaust manifolds, exhaust, grill, lights, doors, trunk lid, spoiler, hood, lower front and rear valences, carpet, headliner, and interior trim were all disassembled. Ensuring every nook and cranny is now painted flawlessly from top to bottom. For originality sake, the factory wiring harness, dash, gauges, rear seat, original factory undercoating, welds, clips, switches, and all the little doo-dads that make this Javelin an original survivor were left in place and cleaned. AMC uni-bodies were "deep-dip" rustproofed at the factory and received undercoating. Meaning, this fact and its exceptional care and always being garaged, means this one does NOT have any of the Javelin/AMX-specific corrosion trouble areas. The rust-free body was recently professionally painted with PPG base coat/ clear coat. The body was painstakingly wet sanded between coats with increasingly fine grit and polished. Now smooth as glass and has great luster and body panel alignment. Never driven since completion, except for a few test miles to ensure all is mechanically ready to drive. ***The front and rear bumpers, all original factory stainless trim, rocker panel cover molding, logos, drip moldings, window moldings and etcetera only needed light polishing are in original amazing condition. *** The attractive1972 only, Ferarri-esque egg crate style grill was painted its correct gray and black with bright silver face. *** Tail lamp assembly with chrome grid covering is original and in great condition. *** Original exterior door handles and driver side chrome mirror have very good original chrome. *** Both door sill plates are in original unrestored condition and show awesome very slight patina. *** Underside of the car received the same painstaking treatment as the top side. It even retains the original factory undercoating. Then once the underside was fully detailed it was painted with black POR-15 to keep it protected and rust free for many more years. Look like it just rolled off the line in Kenosha. ***The trunk area has been restored to concourse specifications with new correct dark green/aqua spatter paint and original factory sealer preserved. Correct factory semi-gloss black was used on the rear bumper brackets and seat back stanchion bars. All trunk floor access holes filled with original OEM black plastic access caps. *** This car is so original it even still has the very hard to find Original AMC Trunk Mat in as new condition. Also, has in great condition the rarely seen original AMC floor mats. *** Still retains the Original Date Correct and unused unpainted Space Saver Spare Tire and Rim with original paper labels and factory markings. *** Unpainted air inflator canister with original production and date codes with new reproduction instruction label, hold down bracket, and complete painted jack setup. *** Plus, an extra bonus.

Both, unused with white factory markings and injection nubs on the tires tread block surface and side walls. *** All new correct reproduction weather-stripping was added to the doors, windows, trunk, and hood, with all factory original retaining clips, screws, and brackets. ***The optional black vinyl roof simulates a T-top and has new correct reproduction boar skin textured inserts. Original factory correct roof trim repainted correct satin/semi black with factory style retaining clips securing them down with factory sealer on the edges.
