That BBO AMX was owned by Melvin Valentine, former president of
Peach State AMO.

We lost Mel to cancer last year, about one month before the
AMO National. Any of you who attended the show got a chance to see
this remarkable unrestored car in person.

I pretty much steered Dan Strohl in the direction of the car when he
was
there covering our National show. I told him it was not only a great
car, but a great human interest story.

I'm glad he listened to me!

Shipped him a Crane Cam for his Stroker 4.0
project a few weeks ago - Crane is behind in
stocking.

Another AMC sidenote - here's a note from a local chum:
