Sounds like OCC needs an AMC day for the Matador. On the truck purchase, it wasn't just reliability issues, it was also for winter driving. Matt =================== Paul Jr. was at the Restaurant the evening he picked that Prowler up. It had been sitting on a showroom floor - truck brought it in to their shop - tires were way low on Air, mentioned it to Chris @ the Bar & I headed down to the Garage Delivery area to locate the Air Compressor. Paul brought the Prowler around - we started talking cars. I talked Turbos - he brought up Nitrous, gave him the name of a local underworked machine shop whose son runs a 10 sec. Nip as a D.D. . What you see of Paul Jr. on TV - that's him. Good guy - is a car freak at heart. Paul Sr.? Actually, he doesn't say much when he's at the Crossroads. During the summers - you can see Paul Jr. out rolling his Prowler on Rte. 17k - past the Crossroads Restaurant - in the early evenings and again around 11pm. Montgomery is Car Freak Central - has been since we moved from Mass. in '65 at least. The car show twice a year at the High School has been going on for decades. So far - I'm the Only AMC in the area outside of GremlinJoe in Middletown - who sold the Gremlin 'Fun in the Sun' roof clip. Brien.
