1969 AMC Javelin Mark Donohue Tribute
A faithful recreation of Mark Donohue's 1971 Trans-Am championship Javelin, built on a sound 1969 AMC Javelin base by father-and-son team Ray and Chad Donner of London-based Unique Customs. The car replicates the Penske Racing livery and specification in accurate Sunoco colours, with period-correct interior detail and competition stance. The base vehicle was imported to the United Kingdom in 1976, and the finished tribute reflects the Donners' long involvement in the American muscle car scene.
