Second nitous pass with my AMC Gremlin 8.009 @ 164mph
Second try with Nitrous. A bit better with the clutch set closer. Next pass was a 7.91 but the video failed. The best part is that it is still running. Not bad for a 40 year old AMC iron block and crank.

*** Please Read the Video Info ***
Crazy wheelstand from an AMC Gremlin? Has to be seen to be believed. Be sure to pause it and observe that he had all 4 wheels off the ground. Car was on it's bumper only. This was at the World Power Wheelstanding Competition in Byron, IL. in 2006. FYI - this is not my car. Please keep comments clean and intelligent. If they fall outside those limits, I won't approve them. This video and all rights are exclusive copyright of Jack Davis Video Productions.

1973 Gremlin X V8 First Start Since 1977
First start up of a 1973 Gremlin X V8 since 1977.
This car has been in storage since 1977and still has the 1977 air in the tires.
This car was found for sale by the original owner on the internet.
Purchased it, brought it home, cleaned the gas tank, put gas in it, put a battery in it and fired it up.
The Gremlin came with all of the original documents, maintenance records, and accessories invoices. It has 45,500 miles and the car is a time capsule.

AMC Javelin
1971 American Motors Javelin vintage test drive video.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------AMC Javelin, second generation design (1971 -1974). The Javelin was restyled for 1971 and like the Mustang of the period, became bigger in most every dimension.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Today the AMC Javein is fast gaining a following for being unique and and as a muscle car for those who dare to be different.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------AMC was purchased by Chrysler Corporation in 1987 in order to acquire the Jeep brand, which AMC had owned since 1970. With the purchase by Chrysler, AMC became the last independent and thsu ended a long history dating back to 1902.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AMC will live on in the cars that remain and which are cherised by those who dare to break away from the pack.
