Vehicle description
I am going to try this one more time. . Firstly, the price is firm and in USA currency.
Serial no. A0C397X223621
I bought this car from the widow of the original owner. It is as nice as one can ask a 50 year old car to be without a formal restoration. There has been a few things done like carpet and a dash overlay but most of the car is as it was born. The paint is better than a five footer but it does have typical chips and such. I am told 95% of the paint is original. I do not know where the 5% part is. There is no rust anywhere that I can find. Original exhaust pipes, glass, carb and so on, very special car.
The driveline is original to the car. This is where the problem comes in. I bought the car to drive, but I noticed the RH exhaust pipe is smoking excessively. My diagnosis is the number 6 cylinder has had detonation issues and oil is blowing by. I have changed the intake gasket with no remedy. Compression is good all around. The engine was completely overhauled 5000 miles ago according to the lady I got it from. Keep I mind this is a matter that has to be addressed. I am not capable or ready to deal with engine removal and such, so it for sale.
I feel the price reflects someone dealing with the engine issue, If you feel it does not , this is not the car for you. Based on the prices of various listings and sales this one is a deal for what it is. There is only 114 1970 BIG BAD BLUE AMX"s and lots fewer with a factory shadow mask. Less than a hand full like this in any color.
My name is Glenn, if you are a serious buyer, free to contact me with any questions or concerns. I will do my best to address them. The car is in my company inventory and as such, Canadian buyers will have appropriate taxes to address. USA buyers are Canadian tax exempt. The car is sold AS-IS, I have disclosed the only issue of any consequence.
I will require a $1000 deposit within 48 hours of purchase. Balance within 7 Days. Shipping is buyer responsibility, I will assist where I can. I can store for up to 30 Days in my heated shop.
