Re: [Amc-list] what color should I paint my car

[Davis Martin <martin-davis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Frank,
 Thanks for the kind words. I take the jabs with the grain of salt, or sugar, or sweet n low. 
 I do enjoy working on these old cars and Gremlin's have been my passion for the past 22 years. I have owned 26. I had a 16 year lul when I had no place to put one or work on one. 
 This is my first adventure into a Rambler. Who know's mabe the wife will like riding in it? She actually hated all amc's till she was a Marlin at the Sturbridge show last year. I am fishing for a 67 cause I have a nice 343 sittin here. If the right deal comes along I will build her one.
 but the 67 is cool and I have a friend that has a 66 Nova SS with a 383. It would be cool to build a cooler 67 American and smoke him! 
 Davis

There's always a chance to make money on a car, you just have to get the
right deal, do the right work to it (or not!), and find the right buyer. Sure,
those things are tough on an AMC, but it sometimes happens! Davis seems to know
he might not make a lot and is watching his costs. In today's market making
money on a much sought after muscle car is even tough, but the lower price cars
might do better. In any case, it's been pointed out (and acknowledged by
Davis) that he might not make much or any over what he has in it. We all know
this, so let's not continue to discourage him from his project! If he makes
money that's great, if not that's a risk he seems to be willing to take.
Plus it sounds like he'll get $$$ of fun out of just the building and
playing with it for a while until it does sell... or he decides to keep his new
fun toy!

Didn't he say it was a Hornet? There's no way to make money on a
Hornet, except perhaps an SC/360. Just being realistic.
