that's an awfully large gremlin you've got there where's here? there was a 343/auto in the junkyard near me not too long ago, and they do pop up from time to time. also i have an amc20 i would consider parting with. supposedly the 8.8 in late rangers is about the right width already, though a narrowed explorer axle (two short shafts) would be a lot easier to find

I'd much rather have an AMC drivetrain so I could just bolt everything in but parts are scarce around here. California, so not particularly. But I'll post in this thread next time I see one hit the yards, just in case!

jesus christ why is it so rusty underneath, thats insane that gas cap rules i kinda like the volcano style center caps from whatever years that did that, but the fullsize hubcap looks pretty cool. you gonna keep it original? you coulda taken out the back seat and popped the trunk from the inside to avoid having to wreck stuff with a drill, if you wanted. i had to do that once and it wasnt too bad, though i dont know the details of that car's trunk latch

you want the free-flows anyway. do you have a matching one for the passenger side? did they really have one side freeflow one side log on the hornet? weird.

Swiller of Beer posted:Nope. But this core is close enough and you can make up the difference with some foam. Plus it cost $26. It may work for your car as well. Rockauto does have the core for the later model Javelins in stock at the moment if you need the style that has the bracket on it for $85. oh nice, last time i looked nobody had those in stock either yeah the only difference between early (mine) and late is that bracket, which some have had luck with removing. i figure ill try that boy, it sure would be nice to have working heat

Swiller of Beer posted:The biggest issue at the moment is finding a fuel pump that is not poo poo. I installed a brand new Carter only to have it start leaking fuel from the weep hole immediately. After doing some research it seems all the AMC mechanical pumps are garbage nowadays so I might have to go electric. Ugh. yeah from what ive read, this is the unfortunate truth. you either find an old original one that's supposedly rebuildable, or convert to electric, or spend multiple hundreds on a fancy aftermarket one (robbmc). the new production stock replacement ones ive heard nothing but problems.
