I was going to ask if it was a factory side pipe carVery very stock, I added side pipes, louvers, front spoiler and new carpet.
None were factory, Dealer option trendsetter sidewinder exhaust. Amc option groupI was going to ask if it was a factory side pipe car
Yes, the tan with the blue is unique, kinda catching. I have the same color interior except the exterior was brown. With the red/white/blue I’m not sure. It has later 90s Corvette bucket seats in red that matches the red on the exterior. Previous owner did a repaint several years ago. I think all the car needs is an appearance cleanup.This one is mine I’m sure you’ve seen it,
It’s been up for sale.

Looks like the Sidewinder and the Trendsetter are a little different. Sidewinder appears to cut in though the dogleg of the fender down in the rocker area. It’s been my experience that sidepipes are generally loud.
Exhaust goes completely under car, the area you see is a cover that attaches to the lower fender as the bend of the exhaust pipe travels to the side pipe muffler. The exhaust travels along the pinch welds rocker underside, the exhaust shield on side pipes attach from original rocker moulding screws. Completing the look. The sound is amazing. In my opinion.Looks like the Sidewinder and the Trendsetter are a little different. Sidewinder appears to cut in though the dogleg of the fender down in the rocker area.

Hope your well on the way to mending.. Any plans for the AMX ?Update.
Got some additional pictures from the previous owner. Yesterday I ordered an axle kit from DrDiff to convert from the weak tapered axles. Also ordered a set of 3.31s. Got all the parts gathered in one place.
I’ll be picking up the car and parts sometime at the end of July. I had a heart attack several weeks ago which set me back. Have to get through he cardiac rehab before traveling.

Plan on going up to WA end of July to get the car. As far as the hand, healing slowly. Still restricted lifting to no more than 10pds. Even that causes a lot of pain. Because I was in a cast all the tendons were affected. I had other injuries to the hand that involved the tendons.Hope your well on the way to mending.. Any plans for the AMX ?
As far as what I’ve accomplished without the car being here I purchased a solid axle kit from DrDiff as well as a set of 3.31s. A complete A body 8.75 came with the car which can be used to replace the Dana 20 but decided to stay stock. I’ll flip the 8.75 later to fund some other upgrades.Plan on going up to WA end of July to get the car. As far as the hand, healing slowly. Still restricted lifting to no more than 10pds.
