That's Garry's car. I believe that is original mileage on it also from when he bought it, not sure he was able to get it running or not, quite a unique vehicle. 

AMC always was one step ahead in alternative fuel vehicles. There is a propane powered Matador east of me in Beaumont, Texas, and has a big tank in rear, and has run on propane since built in 1975. Here is a 1970 electrical Hornet off my site, I don't think this idea would have flown, but still neat:

actual press release for above from aMC:

and many of you saw the hydrogen powered Gremlin pop up on ebay a number of times, usually get in the $7K range but no sale:

It's simply neat to see that AMC....as usual....was well ahead of the curve experimenting with alternative fuels and power decades ago. Now it is the "in" thing to do, back then people think you see a UFO or having a spot of tea with sasquatch or stuffing chupacabra heads in your freezer to show friends. Oops, sorry that last one was here in Texas, old blue head chupie thing. Not sure what the lady did with it but sure looked to be a good source of a large pot of gumbo.
