Yes there is an easy way to verify which engine you have. First .. of
course all 74 cars were built with the 360, Second you can tell by which
side of the engine the air conditioner compressor is on. On the AMC it is
on the passenger side, while on the Ford its on the driver side. You can
also tell by which kind of powersteering pump you have. The ford had a
remote resevoir while the amc was built into the pump.

Hello other enthusiasts,
I have just purchased VIN #281 as a restoration project and thought I
would join the list and say hello.
The car is mostly complete but was obviously used as a partial donor
car. The body is in fair condition. A few cracks and chips. The
T-Panel (piece between doors is damaged considerably). The interior is
in worse shape. A lot of the door hardware is missing and some of the
interior body panels. All the carpet is gone, but at least I got the
radio and 1 speaker. It does run though.
One quick question. From the VIN I expect I should have the AMC 360.
Is there an easy way to verify this (numbers match)?
If there are any others in the Twin Cities that would like to get
together sometime drop me an e-mail.
