Hi;
Don't know if you have any contributors from the other side of the pond, just thought I'd introduce myself. I live in Great Britain, and I've just bought a '71 Javelin with a 360 cu.in / auto box. Always loved the shape, and could never understand why Mopar stuff is so popular when you can have a Javelin for half the price. AMC cars are suprisingly plentifull [relatively speaking] in Great Britain, and there are at least another dozen '71's over here. Probably because they're not as big as some other American cars, and I do seem to remember there were a couple of dedicated AMC dealers in G.B in the late sixties /early seventies. A suprising amount [although mine isn't] are also right hand drive. Anyway, I'll be picking your collective brains for some performance tips soon, please remember that we talk a different language over here [a fender is something you stick on the side of boats !]so bear with me !!!

Welcome from one of those yankees on this side of the pond. Considering where I live, just in the middle of the United States. I have visited Great Britain when I was in the service. Thought London was terrific and the such, although the weather was kind of soggy. Guess I came to visit the wrong time of the year. Anyway welcome aboard and let us know if you need any advise on the things that are AMC.
