Milton just
purchased a 1983 AMC Eagle Wagon to add to his AMC family, which now
includes a 1959 Rambler American which is going through a restoration
and a 1982 AMC Spirit, (see above). His Eagle is a one owner car with
only 32,000 miles on it. Apparently it sat for a number of years, and
when it arrived, it was filthy! It took six hours just to clean
it
before he could polish it up. A new set of tires, a headliner, and a
few other maintenance items and it was on the road. He took it on a
road trip shortly after cleaning her up and she handled beautifully.
Milton was fueling up his Spirit the other day, and a guy at the gas
station said, "Wow, an AMC. You know I never see one, and just the
other day I saw an Eagle." Milton answered "That was mine, too."
Milton always wanted a wagon, and I almost bought a new car, but
when
he saw Endora, which he named the Eagle, he just had to have her. He
knew under all that dirt was a beautiful car. What he does need are new
hubcaps if anyone knows of a good set. Milton can be
reached via email: Milton
