You never know. Seller may contact him later, or retract bids....

If you are going to push the bid you need to do it in the last 20 seconds or so that way other bidders cannot over bid you

Looks like a decent project for the money.
AMX's are rare and unique cars that look cool when they are together
Parts are harder to get; fewer reproduction stuff available

I like it! VIN indicates it is a true 4-spd/360 Javelin. A  lot of $$ in the engine. The side pipes look good on it. The technical Service Manual has good illustrations on how to assemble the grill and miscellaneous. The restorers are watching this Javelin and the last minute of the auction should be exciting.....I'll be watching.  :popcorn:

Pay more get more IMO as I have always said

I've always liked those cars.  We had a '72 Javelin 304/auto with the Pierre Cardin interior back in the late 80's.  It needed some love but was a solid car.  I think we gave $200 for it and sold it a couple years later for $500 without putting anything in it, just driving it.  Had to go to make room for Dad's 36 Ford.  That one would be fun to put into period Trans-Am spec.

Ebay popped this one up for me when the other listing finished.  Not near as nice looking but maybe cheaper...

Problem is the diffence in parts is about the difference in bidding price right now , no 4 spd , no grille , no hood , , it would caost most of the difference just to get the parts the other one included , brad should have gone $1 k more IMO

I was looking at that one too, but interior is a pukey colour , visible damages, says "rust free" but I can clearly see rust , a lot of damaged/trashed parts, etc....  Not the one for me.

I was watching the auction for the last two minutes
After it expired, the reserve was not met, then the ad switched to a different Javelin within 30 seconds
If you click on your link now, this 72 Javelin comes up
Weird.
:dunno:

The reason the reserve was not met is because there was NO RESERVE. If you go into the archives of sold 1972 Javelins and scroll down the left side it is the first one listed as SOLD at $7,600. That was a great deal for a lucky high bidder.
