Re: [BaadAssGremlins] wagons ho! (what did you do with your amc today)

It was 72 degrees here, supposed to be nice whole week, I know some of you AMCers are
suffering this winter been brutal, but figured it was going to be nice, got up early in
the 34 degrees morning, had a cup of Folger's and started washing AMCs. And washing, and
still washing. Finally finished about 2pm, decided to take a 'group shot' for my website
of AMC wagons. I purposely left out the:
68 Rebel convertible 'Machine, 69 Big Bad Orange Javelin, 71 SC/360 Hornet, 74 Javelin, 74
AMX, the other 74 AMX, and 77 AMX.

Just my wagons. Two of them here are sort of new, the Hurricane Ike Hornet Sportabout 74,
it has 78K miles, 232, AT, AC, PS, original paint & interior, and have window sticker and
original owner title, and drive it weekly, just put those AMC mags & new BF Goodrich T/A
Radials on it also, it is a sweet ride although Fawn Beige, my least favorite color AMC
made. The other is 'baby bessie' the 82 Concord DL wagon in Slate Blue, it has only 39K
miles, 258, AT, PS, PDB, tilt, tint, cold AC, original owner Texas title, sold new here in
Houston at Archer AMC (as did the Hornet), I bought this from orignal owner several months
ago, runs super, rebuilt the trans, that is original spinner caps on it also.

Something it has under hood from factory is a Load Leveller. Not sure how many of you ever
heard of that but it is factory Group 15 Accessory towing package with air compressor
under hood. Quite neat to see one on Concord, sometimes you would find them on Eagles.
I'll be putting up this Concord, the Hornet & possibly the 4 cyl 81 Eagle for sale in
spring.

The other wagons are my trusty can't kill it 82 Eagle 'Planet Houston Swap Meet tow car'
