1980 AMC Eagle 4 x 4 review from North America
"If AMC was teill in business I would buy one new"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear Main seal leaks like a sive. Steering linkage rusting and splitting.
General comments?
The four wheel drive is flawless. The six cylinder engine is very strong. The major problem is the undercarriage rusting out, while the body stays solid.
