Only in the last 10 years it seems AMC is getting some well deserved recognition. All you see at show's and cruise nights are the cookie cutter cars, Camero's, Chevelle's and Mustang's and maybe the odd Pontiac GTO, Buick or Mopar. I usually have the only AMC there. A week after I bought the orange Hornet I took it to the local cruise night, it was dirty and with the crumbling interior. It was parked between a beautiful 69 SS396 Chevelle and a blown big block 39 Chevy coupe. The Hornet got more attention than either Chevy. The Chevelle owner was visibly pissed. I know the guy's that put on the cruise and one said that when he saw the car pulling in he knew it had to be me. "Doc" Yahoo!

--- Begin Message ---Thanks Eddie. I appreciate that. The 75 sample sticker you have on site now is close enough for me. It has the manual disc brakes, A/C , automatic transmission, and AM/FM radio options. That is all that Gremmie came with. The 75 prices are close enough to the 78 for me. I went to a show tonight with about 200 cars there were only 4 AMC's there. Besides our buddy Phil I am positive that no one else there knew that it wasn't the original sticker for the car. This is one thing a guy I work with can't find for his Mustang at least not for a decent price. He might have got a little upset last night. He had been to a few car shows and wanted something to take to them. He found a decent 89 Mustang convertible for a reasonable price and ask me what I thought about it for a car to take to shows. I told him you can take any Mustang to the shows. He has been to a few this year and was prett y excited about them, last night was the first time we went to one together and parked side by side. I think it kind of got to him that his Mustang was getting once overs and my Gremlin was getting lots of attention. I didn't try to make a big deal out of it even though on the inside I busting with pride. We were at a show put on by a Mustang club there were three more cars there that could have been his twin much less the half of dozen hardtops just like his. Gremmie was the only AMC there. Anyway thanks again Eddie.
