Re: American Motors
Mine came from AMC as a Javelin 304 auto on the column.
It was converted to an AMX in someone's backyard.
It got a 360 (from a Jeep Wagoneer) with 2bbl, and a 4-speed on the floor. The car still had the oem steering column with the shifter sleeve.
The interior was the black with prism AMX interior. It had the front and rear AMX spoilers, non-functional cowl-induction hood, and the exhaust was ran from headers to straight pipe exiting the sides in front of each rear wheel. It had a nasty blue paint job with no shine left at all. I sold it for $1500 before I turned 18. I'd LOVE to have it back now.

Then I checked a 1974 brochure, and the 304 was the standard Javelin AMX motor.
Maybe your "Halfhymers" is effecting you eyes.
Or maybe ya just need your reading glasses.
