This 1980 AMC Eagle Sport Coupe 4×4 is set to make its mark at the Mecum Kansas City 2024 auction, crossing the block on Saturday, December 7th, 2024. With only 59,750 miles on the odometer and a recent 2024 servicing, this classic AMC Eagle is a rare find for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
This coupe offers both style and functionality. It features a 4.2-liter (258 cubic-inch) AMC I-6 engine, a 3-speed automatic transmission, and an on-the-fly ‘4-wheel-drive’ (4×4) system. It also comes with several desirable features from the Eagle Sport Package, which was offered exclusively on the two-door sedan and wagon models.
The Eagle Sport Package for 1980 includes stylish touches such as a leather-wrapped sport steering wheel, high-beam halogen headlamps, sport fog lights, and unique blacked-out accents like bumpers, grille, and lower body moldings. The coupe also boasts Durham Plaid fabric seats, a distinctive interior that pairs well with the vehicle’s rugged exterior.
This particular AMC Eagle Sport Coupe is in great condition for its age, with only a few minor flaws. Having been serviced earlier in 2024 and fitted with new tires, it is ready to find a new home. Its off-road capability, Olympic White exterior paint, iconic AMC styling, and low mileage make it a standout among classic cars.
