Despite our apprehension at the idea of that rust free
1982 AMC Eagle from Craigslist yesterday, it appears to be real. We're still not sayin' it's cancer free because we aren't seeing rocker panel closeups but still, this thing looks like it was put in a garage in 1992 and forgotten about... wait, that's exactly what happened. From these images we got today, you can almost smell that AMC vinyl and the hose-ripened grease underhood. It's even got that
AMC straight six we talked about today. Maybe four grand is asking a bit much as it isn't in perfect condition, but that's still a sweet machine.

Like the Minotaur or the Griffin, the idea of a rust free AMC Eagle is one of legend, impossibility, sillyness even. Though these tanks posing as cars were the forerunners to todays crossover, and sported big AMC I6's, all-wheel-drive, and seriously crazy ride characteristics, they were not known for their corrosion resistance. So how is this pristine, Cincinnati-area 1982 Eagle two door dressed in a fine shade of 80's brown in such good condition? Well it's been stored in a barn for the last 16 years, that's how.
