Its time to attract all the right attention with this 1973 AMC Hornet X. The refreshed factory colorsand#44; enhanced AMC V8and#44; A/C interiorand#44; and much more come together to make an attractive and distinctive classic for a value price. If you want a Hornetand#44; 1973 is the exact right year. The sheetmeal was given a curvy restyle to be more like the Javelinand#44; and it was the time before federal regulations altered the bumper design. And the new hatchback style was able to really make the most of these curves. But more than just the right yearand#44; youre going to love this Hornet for its stellar presentation. The two-tone Maxi Blue with Snow White roof is the factory-correct color scheme. But you know they never could get it to look this good in 73. Insteadand#44; the outstanding shine you see is the product an investment in a professional application of modern paints. And they got the detailsand#44; rightand#44; too. The red and white pinstripes hug the Coke bottle curves; the waterfall grille is complete; and the bright 14-inch wheels even have American Motors tagging in the center cap. Inside is an attractive black interior that has been given a good balance between originality and proper updating. For exampleand#44; the factory AM/FM stereo is still in the dashand#44; but the real tunes come from a modern AM/FM/CD stereo w/aux input thats hidden in the glove box. The black leather seats are in great conditionand#44; and the same can be said for the door panelsand#44; carpetingand#44; and headliner. You slip behind a sporty three-spoke factory steering wheeland#44; and gaze at a full gauge panel. The speedometer is originaland#44; but the large tach and aux readouts have been updated to make sure you have the best accuracy. And just to make sure you stay as cool as you look in this AMCand#44; the factory A/C is still pumping out the cold air from the factory vents. AMCs 304 cubic-inch V8 is always was great to see in the Hornetand#44; especially with the bright air grabber and valve covers. It could move these compacts around with authorityand#44; and this one does it even better than the factory. The V8 has been enhanced with a Comp Cams kitand#44; Edelbrock 600 four-barrel carburetorand#44; Edelbrock aluminum intakeand#44; and high flow exhaust manifolds. This gives the Hornet X an even greater sting on the road and a true presence with the rumble of the dual exhaust. But theres much more to this classic. It has been given the right investments to be a reliable runnerand#44; including new upper and lower ball joints. Add in the limited-slip rear endand#44; three-speed automatic transmissionand#44; and power steeringand#44; and youll love cruising this AMC everywhere. Complete with owners manualand#44; you know what kind of treat it is to show up in a well-sorted AMC. After alland#44; Kenosha built far less than the Detroit boysand#44; and so when this rarity is at such an affordable priceand#44; this gem wont be with us long. Call today!!! |
