Ha! Thanks! I know I posted it under a different topic, as well, but I figured I would try to breathe some new life into these poor old AMC forums (especially since I am so late to the party). Thanks again for looking!

AMC is cool. 

Very nice build of yours, Rob.

I bought 2 of the kits, originally, and am, currently, converting the other to a 70-72 using the nose from a Johan promo. In the late 60s and early 70s, my dad's boss had a brother-in-law who owned an AMC dealership, so, naturally, everyone in dad's company "chose" to buy AMCs and Ramblers. We had them all, except a Gremlin. The brother-in-law was pretty good to me, as I remember him giving me all kinds of promos and even a large, inflatable pink Gremlin character. Wish I had all that stuff now, but I digress. Anyway, my wagon was a 232, but my mother had a Hornet coupe with a 258 and that little car was pretty peppy! Thanks, again, for looking!

Hi all, I know this is an old post, but figured I would post some pics anyway, in cas people are still looking. (Like me) I finished the model about a year ago. It's based on an actual car I owned back in the day.

Now that is COOL..!   First off I am a wagon nut.  Second due to my late uncle loving AMCs I have a soft spot for them myself.  I have a few id like to restore once I find the parts to for them...

67 Ambassador HT and convertible

74 AMX

early 70s Gremlin

Id like to find some like my uncle owned someday to have replicas of them...restore these as his were.
