Very cool. For it's year the GNX was the fastest production car made...BOP body styles were great through the '70s and '80s...This is a beautiful Grand National...
Beautiful car. I work a stone’s throw away from the old AMC World Headquarters in Southfield, MI. I’ve always loved the Javelin and that’s the prettiest one I’ve ever seen.
That is a beautiful and super clean 71!! Hard to find them like that and even harder to build them that way. Seems like even the parts that have been stored are starting to corrode after 50 years. Enjoy!!
That's a great looking car! I watched a documentary about the SCCA Trans-Am and became a Javelin fan. I think the 71-74 had nicer proportions than the earlier model. Your car has the most attractive 'face' - the twin recesses, blacked out grille, and logo like the roundel of the French air force. I'm surprised to see it on an AMX instead of an SST. I thought AMX's got a flush grille with steel mesh.
You are absolutely correct regarding the flush grille on the AMX unfortunately during the restoration l couldn't locate a good steel mesh grille. I did infact find a recessed grille in perfect condition and decided to improvise. It is extremely difficult to locate parts for most AMC Javelins especially the 71&72 models. Overall lm extremely happy with how the restoration project turned out... Thank you for your appreciation of the car it was a grueling long process and cost a pretty penny $$
