As soon as I get my garage door replaced I actually have plans to start tearing him down. Since AMC closed I won’t be able to get rust free floor boards which blows but such is life. But it’s gonna be fun. Got the girl excited to refresh the interior, NOS parts to be installed, Renix TBI to swap in and much more. I should probably work on little red in my off time before this project goes underway.

Neat! Which was probably a one year only thing that Chrysler said we will never use again.

I’m sending ya a couple. Here’s an 86 one and yes this is the one you and I spoke about being taken apart.

Quartz ones take up the whole cavity so Renix is a bit out of the question.

For giggles I would pressure wash the hell out of that hunk just to see if its rusted or pristine under all that oil and road cake.

Agreeeeeedddd! My assistant manager gives me crap all the time and asks why I won’t buy a new car. Usually end up giving hi. The whole newer cars suck and older cars are more fun to have and maintain speech.

I need to do this. Picked up a dash from AMC for $25. Except it does have some issues. But I couldn’t bring myself to buy a garnet or honey dash to paint it charcoal.

I think thats the one. I swear there was a write up but I guess not. Well it wouldnt hurt to have one if these lamps can be saved.

I swear I remember the PO talking about a clock spring and what not that has a tendency to get locked up inside. I’m glad it’s not just me but I searched under every term I could think of.

Ok I thought so. I couldn’t find it using the search for some reason. Maybe it was ‘hood lamp’ or ‘hoodlight’

I was asked a good question by a member and I was asked if the under hood retractable lamp could be repaired. I swear I vaguely recall seeing and reading a post about it from some time ago. Am I imagining this post or was/is it real? If not, has anyone attempted to repair these lights?

I think I may have found that back piece that’s an L-shape at AMC for the last time today. I say I think as I remember finding it but I don’t recall loading it up. I’ll find out this evening.

Indeed. It’s still derusting lol. I need to take it out now and actually start repairing it. Agreed. They’re a luxury and a look back to simpler times for automobiles.

Man. Time has flown with Little Red. I seriously remember like it was yesterday that it was just January and I had brought her home to be just a daily driver only to find out I dove into an unwarranted addiction lol. But seriously it’s still fun.

It actually isn’t. I approached Pete about doing such years ago. We started with just the build date and body code. Then we moved to include build sheets for everyone despite the lack of info for the AMC owned MJs and finally we added where your MJ was sold. Providing such to everyone just aids in the addiction and keeps others coming back.

I think I have said it a few times on here.
