Another thought to add to this truth pointed out by Eddie: As more of 
our AMC's are crushed, the blocks are disappearing along with them. 
No more are being produced. Our (and God knows I hate this 
term) 'orphan' auto line will truly become extinct if some of us 
don't save the bodies, parts, etc. powered by ____________ (fill in 
the blank) if necessary. How many times I have heard people wanting 
to convert to EFI, upgrade braking systems, exhausts, and so 
on...does this diminish the standard or improve the breed? The pure 
all-stock AMC cars with the impossibly impeccable original parts are 
dwindling as our line is depleted in junkyards all across the 
country. Why do I choose AMC? I don't really know - guess it started 
with the love of a unique car....that just happened to carry the red, 
white, & blue logo.*grin* -Lu-
