My first Isuzu

Came across an older framed picture of some of the cars I’ve owned. Little red pick-up truck was my first Isuzu. That was back in about 1996 when I retired. That was my commuter vehicle.

Yes, good pick, most never heard of the AMX. It’s a 69. The orange “Z” , I re done with a 280 engine and a 5 speed. The black convertible was a 1938 ford, and the coupe had a 50 overhead Olds engine which came out before the same in a ford or chevy.

Yeah, I remember those AMXs with a 390 cid IIRC and didn’t Donohue run one in the Trans Am series?

I think Donahue ran a Javelin? That was a long time ago, so I may be wrong.

Looks like he not only raced Javelins but Matadors too. Maybe others!
