Hey all - I want to let you know that there is still *SOME* respect for AMC here in the South (Alabama at least)! I happened to drive my Gremlin by a mall parking lot and noticed a couple of radio station vans & some old cars parked around so I turned in to see what was going on. I got a free AC Delco car inspection and free entry into their GM High Performance Club car show. Not even having my car washed, I was hesitant to enter, but was encouraged by several club members. The judges were 2 men and one woman from AC Delco doing a promotion. The #2 NASCAR (real car) of driver Clint Bowyer was there too. I proudly pulled my little Gremlin in beside the row of Corvettes, got out the Simple Green and a rag, and cleaned a layer of crud off the engine and door sills before the judges came around. I thought I was in trouble when the woman judge said, "What is that?", but the 2 guys told her all about AMC, recounting their memories of the Javelin, AMX, and so on. Another nice surprise came at award time. I won the judge's choice award and was given a very nice laser cut 'Show Winner' plaque to take home in the Gremlin! I also met this lady from Montgomery who said she is building a 1974 Gremlin up with a 360, etc. We exchanged phone numbers and I hope to get some advice & parts from her for mine. It really turned out to be a rewarding day, with so many folks stopping by with their comments about the car. Dave Yahoo!
