1970 AMC Rebel SST true x-code Project

It is no big surprise to find a "surprise", the driver door was replaced for some reason, this is a sticker on the inside of the driver door, it revealed itself when I took off the door panel, so the body shop is going to take a real good look to see if there is any structural damage, it does not look like there is, but I'll let the professionals do their job, neat old sticker though, it is dated August 21, 1974

I just learned we can upload youtube videos directly, this is quite neat, so here is the video again, but now you guys do not have to copy the link address, just click play, way too awesome, ...this is the first "official" start up, nothing super special, but was an exciting moment as I thought the engine was seized when I bought this car!  We opened up the engine to inspect it and it turned out to be fine, needed the typical minor attention to detail, but for the most part, well... here is the video!

Good for you dude!  Glad to see someone is getting some work done to their car.  Sweet ride.  I've got a side job I need to get done, then I can get my body panels and start welding.  A year ago, I was in the local junk yard, and someone junked a 69 Rebel.  What a crime.  Had the 6cyl in it, and was only missing the passenger front fender.  Car probably belonged to one of those people, that when asked if they'd sell, they said "no it means something to me."

Ron, that car belonged to Lester (he came down to Reno with us) he still has his 68 AMX.

Thanks, it is a neat project, discovering some issues as tear down progresses, but nothing that cannot be taken care of, ...it has a good home now with someone who is willing to give it the Lve it deserves!
