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.

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.

We are of course suspicious of the "NO RUST" capital letters inside quotation marks thing. Shouting while in quotation is a sure sign of either a real thing, or a flat out lie. Attempts to get more pictures have been fruitless, but four grand for a cherry Eagle seems almost too good to be true.
