if i had the money and was able to find one to restore, it would be the
1973 AMC AMX. (the fastest car i've ever owned)
360 4bbl, dual exh., 4 speed manual, "Cardin" interior, Plum in color.
had this my senoir year in high school till my soph yr in college.
purchased off a county sherriff, he had installed aircraft landing lights behind the grill. (for more visability of course)
when i brought it home, my mom said she was not going to have a purple car sitting in the driveway, so i took it to "Earl Schieb"
his motto "Will paint any car, any color, for 69.95" had it painted metallic silver.
it took 2 coats. before i took it to paint, i removed any emblems that i could and masked off the hood stripe.
because for 69.95 they did not do any of that.
i know the pic say's '74. it was the closest i could find for the color.
