1981 AMC Eagle - $19,995 - La Vergne, TN - For sale in our Nashville showroom is a muscle car wagon 1981 AMC Eagle. This AMC Eagle Wagon for sale is a built beauty built to drive and ready to rock! With only 6100 miles on the rebuild this AMC is just broken in and ready for loads of fun! Powering this 81 AMC Eagle for sale is a 5.0 Ford engine plucked from a fox body mustang. Topped with a carburetor and other add on goodies you get the simplicity and throttle response of a carburetor with the efficiency and smoothness of a roller cam 302. With all the minor add on goodies this small block Ford engine is a real runner! Backing the peppy small block Ford is a T5 5-speed manual transmission which is just begging to be taken through the gears. A custom short-shifter makes this car feel like a real street machine! The power is placed to the pavement via a 8.8 Ford rear end with 3.73 gears. The gears churn a set of Cobra style wheels paint black with a polished lip wrapped in performance radial tires. The complete Mustang drivetrain makes this a real power wagon! To make this Eagle even more reliable the Mustang front suspension was fabricated to the existing suspension as well. This makes for a rack and pinion steering set-up with power disc brakes that makes this Eagle one great cruiser! The exterior is low and mischievous in a sinister shade of gunmetal with satin black trim. Looking at the custom made front grill youd swear it just drove out of a Mad Max film. With boxy and edgy lines this muscle wagon has an 80s look mixed with a modern flair. The custom made tilt hood is just one of the custom pieces that really sticks out to others when showing. The interior follows suit with a custom tan and black vinyl/cloth based interior. With sport buckets up front and a bench in the back this wagon has a sports car feel and a family car appeal all rolled into one! Add in the woodgrain steering wheel and you even have a touch of class! Options on this 1981 AMC Eagle for sale include: AM/FM radio CD player power brakes seat belts cloth/vinyl interior seat belts and radial tires wrapped around aluminum/alloy wheels. Nows your chance to own one well built hot rod thats ready to terrorize the strip cruise the street and turn heads at the show. To see more HD pictures and video please visit GatewayClassicCars.com.

Gee, instead of converting this one to another camaro they converted it to a mustang. :doh:
 
If they'd found a way to keep the T-Case, and front axle, I'd be all over this like a cheap suit. Not sure about the headlights.. Ditch the wheels, and de-tart the engine bay..
 
i could actualy live with the wheels...but again losing the AWD stinks...think about twin hairdryers and AWD thru a 5spd....it would be a riot

Once again, anything besides all the emissions bullshit it came with.. I test drove a really clean '83 here in town a couple of years back.. I wanted it pretty badly.. Right price, low miles, one owner, awesomely garish interior.. would've lost a drag race to a drunk on a tricycle.. Just miserable..
 
there were few around here LIFTED..and not alot..but more than your average lifted soobie ..and damn they just look like mean fun....these days i cant help but think about one slipped into the weeds on a tweaked n worked suspension to handle with twin hair dryers spooling up a gnaly v8
 
You can run 29's on them stock, like an XJ.. But since you mentioned Subies, the old Justy hatchbacks (EA-81's I think).. have a bolt under the backseat to adjust ride height and stiffness on the torsion bars, much like our mopars. Some had a similar set of bolts under the front struts.. Sheet metal screw a selection of your favorite road signs to the undercarriage, lift your heap in 20 minutes, and go embarrass your choice of lifted brodozers by skipping across mud holes..
 
pretty much....hell ive seen a few with 30's stuffed under em even 1 or 2 with 31's ....there were a few local guys making lift kits for them even so you could gain the height without the "smoothness" being sacraficed...i really REALLY need a brat..preferably gen1 sheetmetal hung on a gen2 as the gen1 undercarage has lift issues in the back the gen2 is all ironed out

but deer god i want this thing BADLY

yeah..its an evil lil beasty...and the trails for it are about 45mins away.....everything from easy to, your insane and your shits about to be totaled

but..see...i have a "scale" rc crawler that allready matches it well enuf....the "real" one would need an exo cage and a set of beadlocks to match
 
That sounds like fun.. All of the trails around here are getting shut down. They just pulled all of the boulders out of the closest one to me, and added tank traps off on the side trails to open the main trail for leafers, and keep the off road guys out.. Everything in Maryland is shut down, because Maryland sucks (that's not the only reason, just another item on the list) Everything east of me is suburbs, or rich white folk horse farms. West Virginia's closing a lot of them because ATV/UTVs are tearing them up. It's getting harder to find a fun place to go four wheelin' every day.
 
weve got areas that have been set aside for pretty well forever for atve/utv/truck/buggy/bike basicly 40square miles of coast range..thats the "local" spot..head up to washington and youll find a handfull of areas of similar size..or head south and youll find even bigger spots of dunes and platueas without leaving the state..or head east to the mountains and you get the bonus of snowmobile trails.....basicly there is a good portion of the state is for wheeling of one kind or another..same goes for 1 state up
