1978 AMC AMX Concord review from North America
"Worth it if you can afford it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The sway bar went thru the oil pan after hitting a small pothole.
The valley pan gasket went out and flooded the engine with antifreeze.
The carb caught fire, and the engine bay was on fire for a few minutes.
Miles of vacuum lines and tons of leaks.
General comments?
Very nice car, turns heads and RARE! It handles great, could have more power but that's a smogged out 2BBL 1970's 5.0 for ya.
