Engine was a 390 with factory crank & rods and domed Jahns pistons. Crane ported the heads, Edelbrock built the X-Ram & Holley supplied a pair of 585 CFM carbs on top. I think Jardine supplied the headers. That was the engine package. Unfortunately, a stock passenger car cam was also part of the deal.
T-10 trans with 2.88 low gear, hurst shifter and Lakewood bell housing in the middle. Hurst put the battery in the trunk and made their own version of Chrysler SS rear leaf springs. One piece axles from Henry's were in the AMC Dana rear. The factory over ride bar was also still attached (I think that's what it's called; bar over the leaf springs attached to the frame at the front and a mount over the axle tube). Rear wheel wells were radiused for slicks and they came with Cragar SS wheels.
A pretty simple package and tens were a roller cam and engine blueprint away. Of course I'm reciting the history books as I was only 9 when they were new. Guys like Mike Withers here and Tom Goldman were there!
Had AMC done more to the car like Ford & Chrysler did at the time, like fiberglass parts and thin glass, they would probably be even more valuable today. Restored ones (only 53 made) seem to fetch $125K or more. Pete's Patriot WITH A 4-SPEED! :) should be a gold mine if sold!
