1974 AMC Javelin

For 1974 front disc brakes became standard equipment while radial tires became optional. The functional cowl induction fiberglass hood that was previously part of the Go Package of performance options was no longer available for 1974. The output of the 401 cubic inch V8 dropped by 20 horsepower, and the 304 cubic inch V8 became standard for the AMX model. A new three point lap and shoulder belt design with an interlock system prevented the car from starting if the driver and a front passenger were unbuckled. Mid year, Chrysler abandoned the pony car market.
