No where fast, but deadly on the curves. Eagle has seen several Auto crosses and Road Atlanta. Nearing on 200,000 miles and driving strong.

And recent Acquirement

*1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 2wd 155,805 miles

Needs Headliner and new Tires, and possibly a Transmission. Otherwise Good to go with a uber clean interior and decent paint and clear coat still! (impressive for Chrysler) Even with only having 2wd it is way more capable of harsh road conditions than the Eagle is, and will be taking to a few trails for proper dirtying.

I reckon I'll get down to a proper Sig page later on.

Forgot to mention, At some point these awesome parts will make their way into the Eagle.

Welcome aboard! The Eagle Vision is probably my favorite first-gen LH car. It also seems the spirit of AMC is alive and well in your fleet. :thumbsup:

My favorite LH outside of the first gen LHS. I remember poking around under the hood of one and thinking how small the engine looked in such a large engine bay. Do you know if they take turbo-charging well? It seemed there was room for it.

Plenty of room, although a rear mounted turbo would work the best to create less complications of plumbing in the engine space. With the low compression of 8.9:1 stock the 3.3 would make an ideal candidate for boost, but testing has shown a weak-ish bottom end under high boost levels. (Cast iron Crank) I am hoping to go the other route with the Shelby Can Am internals and run a high compression (10.5:1) with the heads and gain some power all with a stock PCM.

Also, today found the local SCCA AutoX group out doing their thing. Been wondering where they ran at since I did AutoX down in Florida. I have until Feb to get the Eagle up to snuff however as today was their last running for this year. They use a huge parking lot. I am use to a huge concrete patch for police training and a old airport runway.

I will say this, I found it funny all the "nice" and "modified" cars people brought to sit on the sidelines.
