RE: [BaadAssGremlins] 'Originality' questions (Hornet)



John the name of the carpet padding is Jute. Both my 74's had it on the
bottom. As for the purpose I have no idea. It was crumbling and I just
scraped it off. I see no difference in noise or rattling.

Me thinks you mean the foam BEHIND the shelf. I'm talking about 1/4"
thick carpet padding on the BOTTOM surface...visible from the seated
position if you tilt your head down just a bit. See the photo link I
supplied.

John, I am not sure when/what year AMC started doing this but believe it
had
to do with rattles. I have one in my 71 SC/360 that came out of a 72
Hornet,
and the 74 Sportabout DL/GX wagon also has one, both have a soft pad,
this
type commonly found around some of the eariler 68-70 AMX AC units,
disentrigrates on touch. Others, like my 82 Eagle, has a actual pad made
of
different material under there. But I believe the thin pad was to keep
the
package tray from rattling.
