Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Re: AMX hood decal

["Eddie Stakes" <eddiestakes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Lu, here is the 77 and 78 AMXs for comparison on hoods decals....please
note the 77 does not have one...also on the rear, the big "AMX" letters. The
77 would later have not only the big bee on the hood, but a smaller size one
on the trunk. I think I have 3 NOS trunk bees in stock, not for sale, they
will probably doll up my SC/360 later......

Thanks for the info., John. I think the car I saw at the show was a
Concord AMX with the flamed hood design, I will pay closer attention
next time! -Lu-
