1977 AMC Pacer

For sale in our Chicago showroom is a super groovy 1977 AMC Pacer Wagon DL. The DL was the top trim level for the Pacer wagon and for the additional $379 included wood grain exterior and interior trim as well as additional chrome trim. This wagon also has the optional 258 Cubic Inch inline 6 cylinder that is more center mounted being moved back past the dash board. AMC really gave a lot to its customers in the way of value and engineering including a very precise shifting automatic transmission, wood grain interior treatment, a rear electric wiper and perforated seating surfaces.

The Pacer was launched for the 1975 model year and concluded its run in 1980 and is very uncommon to see on the road today. The term "Futuristic" was used to describe this car and did have a very innovative design compared to a lot of vehicles on the road at the time. AMC had a less cookie-cutter approach to its styling making some very unique cars that have now become collector items. Although the landscape of the 1970s was dotted with Pacers and Gremlins they have mostly disappeared and are becoming increasing sought after.

This '77 is in very nice original condition and looks very close to the way it would have left the showroom. The mileage appears to be consistent with the wonderful condition and has spent the last several years in a private collection of very high quality vehicles. The 258 cubic inch 6 cylinder starts up easily and performs very well getting this car up to speed without hesitation. Thanks to the rack and pinion steering and wishbone suspension that were very innovative at the time, this car cruises very nice at any reasonable speed. If you are looking for something unique that will turn some heads and make some smiles this car has it all. The rear seat folds down very easily and makes for some incredible cargo room. A short, wide car was innovative at the time and was very similar to the crossover SUVs of today.
