29-Years-Owned 1969 AMC Javelin SST 390 4-Speed

This 1969 AMC Javelin SST was sold new by Siebert Rambler Inc. of Rochester, New York, and was acquired by the seller in 1993. Subsequent work included a repaint as well as installation of a replacement 390ci V8, which sends power to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission. Additional equipment includes 15″ Rebel Machine-style wheels, power-assisted front disc brakes, staggered rear shocks, traction bars, black side stripes, a push-button radio, a Holley carburetor, a Comp Cams camshaft, Crane Cams roller rockers, Wiseco pistons, four-into-one headers, and an Edelbrock intake manifold and valve covers. This Javelin SST is now offered with owner’s identification paperwork, manufacturer’s literature, removed factory parts, and transferable New York State registration in the seller’s name.

The seller states that the body was refinished in its factory shade of Big Bad Blue in 1994. The hood features dual simulated air inlets, and additional exterior details include black side stripes as well as SST and 390 badging. The seller notes various scratches around the body.

Black-finished 15″ Rebel Machine-style wheels wearing polished lips and American Motors center caps are mounted with 235/60 BFGoodrich Comp T/A tires. The suspension has been modified with traction bars and staggered rear shocks. Braking is handled by power-assisted front discs and rear drums.

The cabin features front bucket seats and a rear bench upholstered in Charcoal vinyl, while woodgrain trim adorns the dashboard and door panels. Equipment includes a push-button AM radio, a heater, and lap belts.

The three-spoke steering wheel is said to have been sourced from a 1973 Gremlin X and fronts a clock, a 140-mph speedometer, and a tachometer with inset water temperature and fuel level gauges. The five-digit odometer shows 9k miles, though total mileage is unknown.

The replacement 390ci V8 is said to have been rebuilt with work including boring the cylinders .020″ over and balancing the rotating assembly. Additional modifications reportedly include the following parts and components:

Holley carburetor
Edelbrock intake manifold & valve covers
Wiseco pistons
401-specification cylinder heads
Comp Cams camshaft and valve springs
Chevrolet push rods
Stainless-steel valves
Crane Cams roller rockers
Floating wrist pins
Cloyes True Roller timing chain
Four-into-one headers
Dual exhaust system

Work performed in 2022 included an oil change as well as replacement of the spark plugs.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission. The transmission fluid was replaced in 2022, and corrosion is noted on underbody components.

The owner’s identification card lists the vehicle identification number as well as delivery to Siebert Rambler Inc. of Rochester, New York.

The removed factory steering wheel, roof spoiler, and door sill guards are included in the sale along with a shop manual.
