Re: RE:Standard catalog of American Motors

Larry, I might be wrong, but I don't think "Standard Catalog of American Cars" has all the options and prices. I have a copy, but didn't bring it to Korea. That first printing was quite a while ago! Someone mentioned "Standard Catalog of Independents". It has EXACTLY the same info as "Stnadard Catalog of AMC". The AMC edition has additional articles on various AMC topics that ran in "Old Cars Weekly" over the years. Good content, but nothing that will be missed if looking for data on the cars.
