Greetings,

I have the remains of two AMT stock spec. late Matador coupe models, whatever Penske Winston Cup/NASCAR racers I've purchased in the past in addition to a very nice and professionally-finished (if it can be called that) bodyshell where I hope to combine all the best to come up with a good result for cobbling matters together.  The above appreciated, somehow I was having a lot of trouble turning up detailed reference materials to support my effort until the following Bring-A-Trailer post revealed what might be the ultimate (horror of horrors) late Matador with what could termed impeccable pedigree.  AMC Chief Stylist Dick Teague apparently had dibs on the last Matador coupe built, while the accompanying photographs afford as detailed a look at the car and platform as the reviewer of this post is likely to discover.  Helpful to me, and maybe two or three others scattered across the globe...

Mine  is no were as pretty but bought it back 1994....Pretty decent cars considering AMC had no money.  Mine feels much more modern than it\s age.
