Re: [AMC-list] 78 AMX (on trying to sell a car: ie good photos)

A step down was the New Yorker. When I was in college one of my
friends had a '64 New Yorker (this was in '78 or so). It was in
grandads. His grandad had it for a few months and passed away. The car
had less than 20K on it and looked brand new. You could watch the gas
needle sink down whenever he hit the go pedal. That car was big,
comfortable, fast, assertive - and extremely thirsty for high test!
