Showcasing AMC Models and Unique Features

the deck height and the bore. It goes anywhere from a 290 up to 401, the biggest motor they made. Concord's were their uh mid-size car in the '70s. It used to be a Hornet, and then '78 it turned to a Concord. Uh sort of Jeeps, we have some Jeeps out here. Mostly 10 Jeeps out here right now, but uh AMC was uh struggling a little bit. They'd been purchased partially by Renault in 1980 when my dad got out. They got bought by Chrysler in 1987, and that's when AMC officially ended, and it became Eagle and Jeep. This Ambassador here is a '71 two-door hardtop car. Uh we sold it to a family friend who worked right next to door to my dad dealership downtown. His name was Carl Scott. He uh it would had been a program car where the uh the our district rep was driving it. And usually it has a lot of options on it. Well, when he retired it and got a new car from AMC, Daddy bought this from AMC. And he uh sold it to Carl Scott and he loved it and all, but it came time to buy a new car, and so he traded it in for a new car. And Daddy polished it up and tuned it up really nice. And the guy fell in love with his car again and came back and bought it twice. And he uh ended up keeping it until he passed away. And I bought it from his grandson. He's uh his grandson was out here this past month just looking over and see what kind of shape it was in. Is he going to take it back? Well, there's thoughts of it. We don't know yet. It's It's got a little bit of repair that needs on it now. But it's a really I think it is a early '71, so it I think it still has those special heads on it. That's a Gremlin. If you remember the Gremlins? That's about the only AMC I know what the name is for sure. Car Cars 3, the movie Cars 3, I think had Pacers and Gremlins in it. But these came out in 1970. In fact, the very first Gremlins were two-seaters with 13-in wheels. They were really economical. And they wanted they compared them with the Volkswagen Beetle and how they had like twice the horsepower of the Beetle. This is a 360 70 model car, so it has those special heads. They're big valves and very small combustion chambers. So it has really high compression. Um we do have other cars. There's over half the cars are what we call off-brand cars. They are uh Fords and Chevrolets. We always Daddy called them off-brand cars because they weren't AMCs. But uh there's a little Chevette. Yeah, there's actually a Chevette club and uh there's like a Escort EXP club. I just sold a Escort EXP to somebody.…
