1973 AMC Hornet

18

1973 AMC Hornet 2-door Coupe 232ci I6, 3-Speed Auto 63K Original Miles Grasshopper Green Metallic Green Vinyl Interior I traded a carburetor and steering wheel for it! Runs and drives excellent, everything works, and best of all my 401 AMC V8/5-Speed manual fit in it. It’s destined to be a drag car. These pictures are as-purchased, I even haven’t even emptied the change bucket yet!
