I found that particular Javelin by typing in the ebay search criteria "AMC police". I do this about once every two weeks and I have come up with some interesting stuff.
I think this AMC is beyond my checkbook restoration efforts.

and barring an actual, physical inspection of the vehicle, I can say that the VIN is authentic, now whether the car is, and all original, motor, tranny, gears, etc., that's another story. This car would warrant an inspection trip as a condition of purchase, caveat emptor! And just WHO are you calling FATSO! FATSO! I'm 5' 11 1/2 " tall and weigh 197 lbs, .....and you? (NT)In checking the VIN, and presuming some less than scrupulous idiot didn't just "transfer" the door plate, VIN tag, and some other telltale markings,13:01:15 12/17/02 Tue

that's buying the parts "right", getting good work done at fair prices, body, frame, metal, trim, mechanicals, & paint, doing some of the work yourself. That's the low end of what a restoration of one would/should be appraised & sell for, $10-12K. In today's dollars it would be a bargain. 5 years from now, with only a handfull restored & the vintage, classic police car collection hobby becoming even more proliferated with individual collectors & a lack of cars available, I could see a restored car of this type selling for $15-20K.A complete fundemental restoration of this car could be done for around $10K.....13:23:11 12/17/02 Tue
