It's the real Peter Revson 1968 AMC Javelin Trans Am car. Multiple poles and podium finishes, nabbed 2nd in the Trans Am Championship in 68 behind the Donohue Camaro and ahead of the Shelby/Teralingua team! Fully documented and ready to vintage race. Only $295K. 
This is the car I want to clone into a street / track rat Javelin.
You do know that the G in GRM doesn't stand for Gold don't you?
Nice car though.
Hey a man can dream, can't he?
I'm at half-mast.
If I had the winning lottery numbers...
I'd be happy enough with the jacket.
Awesome car. And I love those period race photos.
Gorgeous car. I love those old style American wheels.
I'm really sorry, but 300,000.00 (minus a very few) is a very LARGE price for a car. A vintage Ferrari, a beautiful racing Porche, an original Cobra 427, maybe. A Rambler? No.
let me just see if I have any change from lunch...
cwh,
Did you look at the prices on vintage Ferrari's, etc with this type of racing pedigree? You have to add a zero to the end. This is the "Rambler" that knocked off SHELBY man!
nice 
price sounds bout right
I have a super duper man crush on 60-70's era trans am cars...the Donohue Camaro and the Dan Gurney Boss 302 are my holy grails...
the only thing I get more excited about are similar era Can Am cars.
I wonder if they'd take a check..
Glorious, but I'd rather have the Donahue Mustang 
I think I'm going to have a "crisis"
ummm...Donohue never raced a mustang....he started in the Blue and Gold Penske Camaro's, then when Chevrolet gave the Camaro contract to Chapparal, Penske went to AMC with the Javlin program, and took his star driver Donohue with him...
Donohue is my favorite driver ever, and he died 15 years before I was born...

nice Top Gear reference.
I must certainly apologize to you Aussie...did you mean this Mustang?
Mark drove this Shelby GT350R to an SCCA B Production Northeast Division championship, and was invited to the ARRC at Daytona where he finished 10th due to a flat tire...
Yea, that was the one that he painted opposite colours of shelby's factory cars and beat them. Man that guy rocked!
On topic: That javelin is wicked but it doesn't excite me nearly as much as if it were a few years later and Donahue's.
Nice find on the pic, yes that's the car, he beat up the Shelby's in that, he was the purest driver I ever followed.
Probably a fair price for a bit of racing history, but even if I sold my house.....
For 10% of that cost couldn't you build one?
And why is the shift knob upside down? Big dollar factory money and couldn't find one with the "R" on the correct side?

Dunno who Donahue is, but Mark Donohue only drove Camaro's (67, 68, 69) and Javelins (70, 71). Did I mention he won the Championship in 71 with the Javelin and nearly won 70 as well? He never touched Mustangs in Trans Am, only in B-Prod. Also, Penske and Donohue were bought into AMC before Chevy dumped the Camaro on Chapparel. Penske set up a NASCAR team after winning Trans Am with the Javelin. Rambler has a pretty rich racing history.
Yet again i stand corrected. Penske did make the move to AMC. I need to reread the unfair advantage.
The Eagle is gettting a similar paint job, only with the blue over the hood, and the hatch in Red.
Gotta pay tribute to that glorious AMC Racing history!
I'm comfortable with the fact that regardless of whether or not I "strike it rich" one day, I will never spend $300k on a car.
