Au Coupes

[Stagg]

Well, I had the guts to actually talk to them and got to talk to Troy Hillier, and got to shed some light on the whole subject:

They build 3 coupes, the green and red XR coupe, and the AMC Arrow. The green XR coupe was turned into the 300+ coupe.

As we already know, the 300+ coupe is owned by mr Lane ford in Mandurah WA, Troy has just told me that he still owns the AMC arrow coupe, at his home in Tenterfield NSW.

As for the red XR coupe, he said that his friend in Brisbane now owns that, I thought if I asked him which friend it might actually creep him out a bit.

And my heart skipped a beat when he said that THEY WILL STILL DO A COUPE CONVERSION!!!

They would do an AU conversion for $40k. That obviously includes the custom bodywork, but includes interior re-trimming, and a bare metal respray.

He actually sounded like he was reminiscing about the prospect of doing another AU coupe conversion, although he suggested that he would do a conversion for a later model for around the same price. Apparently they're working on a Chrysler 300C coupe currently, wonder what that would look like.

So yeah hope that answers your question, we know where the coupes are now, how many were made, what they would charge for a conversion and yes they would still do a conversion. Happy to shed some light on the subject
