[AMC-list] Amcs at Automotion in Wisconsin Dells at Noah's ARK

[FordManTED@xxxxxxx]

Hi guys- We had some nice Amcs at the Automotion show. I didn't get to see  
all of them since most left Sat. but there were still a few there Sunday. 
Very  nice Gremlin with excellent LEVI blue interior, 68 AMX in restored  
shape(beautiful paint job) and a R/W/B Rebel that looked great. Not very  many  
swap meet parts except I was able to buy some EC chrome door handles  that 
some one had stored for years w/o pits. Got an EC Gremlin gas cap and a NOS  
Hornet gas cap which I will sell since I only own and restore Eagles. 
  Also , stumbled across a AMX dash cluster with GC clock amp,oil  and temp 
gauges with 8 prong wire loom still attached. Markings on back were  
873015. W3 / below that was 3690357. Exactly what years does this fit and what  
option was it sold under. It all works according to seller that I have bought  
parts from before. If any one is interested ;please e-m only at 
_www.FORDMANTED@xxxxxxxx (http://www.FORDMANTED@xxxxxxx)  since I am not  close to 
phone . Accident,loud hotrods and m/cycles have damaged my hearing plus  old 
age. 
  Like to add something to hoarder conversation; I am also guilty of  
saving GC parts for Fords,Mustangs ,vintage cars, and AMCs but I will sell,buy  
or trade them for what I need when restoring other cars. Have a small stock 
of  new replacement parts and NOS too. Specialize in hard-to -find items that 
aren't  cheap but are needed and try to sell reasonable.. Eddie said a lot 
that  makes sense since old cars are being scraped for newer models so 
salvage yard  can sell and stay in business. Always remember that the Good Old 
Days are gone  but not forgotten. Notice how when a yard gets sold out from 
under  grandfather clause how the city,state and govt. want lot removed or 
condemned so  yard has to move or close. These yards were once out in the 
boonies until homes  and people moved around them. Then they start bellyaching 
about that OLD piece  of a salvage  yard              
                                                           is tearing down 
the value of their new neighborhood. 
  Any way if we didn't have collectors or hoarders; there wouldn't be  much 
of vintage parts left to restore these old cars . Personally I like and  
want good used old parts to restore back on car if possible. Saves  money,time 
and half the time foreign made reproduction doesn't cut the mustard  since 
they don't last as long or fit right. We all need to cut down clutter  since 
we can't find half the stuff we know we have somewhere. Right?  Anyway GOD 
BLESS all of you and your families.   Love in  CHRIST-TED"FORDMAN"  EHRHARDT
