The Sema motor show is over, but left us with huge impression. One of the stars at the show was this 1972 AMC Javelin AMX Defiant, which is a creation as a result between the Ringbrothers and Prestone Coolant Company. As you may know, this Javelin is owned by the Ringbrothers for a long time, but they have never managed to do something with it.
Therefore, they have decided to make some small changes, and introduce it at the 2017 Sema. Actually, what they have created is the most radical design and technical changes that someone has ever done on a Javelin.
First, the aggressive body is made from carbon fiber with aluminum details. The interior has a minimalistic design and is made of black leather, brushed aluminum, and modern equipment, such as a Kicker sound system, Classic Instruments gauges and Vintage Air Gen IV Magnum Evap Kit.
Inside the engine bay, this Javelin is equipped with a Wegner Motorsports –Chrysler’s 6.2 liter, 370 cubic-inch HEMI Hellcat small-block V8 engine. Fitted with a Whipple 4.5-liter Supercharger on top, this engine produces astonishing 1,036 horsepower. The engine is attached by a Bowler – Chevy 4L80E 4-speed automatic transmission, which spins GM’s 12-bolt rear-end via QA1 carbon fiber driveshaft.
This 1972 AMC Javelin AMX Defiant lies on a Detroit Speed Hydro Formed front sub and custom 4-link Ringbrothers custom suspension. The beautiful 20-inch HRE Performance Wheels are equipped with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires and secured with Baer 6S 6-piston calipers and vented rotors on all four corners.
