Not an Eagle. This (Apr. '12) issue of Car & Driver has an article about wheelstanders, Gremlin pictured in it. Not many details (drivetrain, etc.), some pictures & a little info.

between breaking bad and walking dead, did anyone point out the coincidence of both those shows being on AMC?

Just borrowed Eddie Murphy - Golden Child from the library. Opening scene in L.A. (when they start all the people starring in the movie), looked like a Hornet/Concord (brown sedan) going by.

Was it a bright orange Gremlin?  That one wins the wheel stand competitions in Car Craft a lot.

Forget what color (it's been more than 2 hours). I THINK it was red.

There was an on demand movie I watched last night called Crunch. It was a class b 80's high school football flick. One of the main character's drove a concord....if you got Comcast cable and a few hours to kill check it out....its under the free movies section under comedies...it was cheesy but entertaining.

Been watching a lot of stuff on www.hulu.com (FREE TV). Saw a Barret Jackson episode with a few shots of the Mark Donahue Javelin, Not for sale, just during the interviews. Season 2, Episode 7 - called Pony Car wars or Pony Cars?? Something like that. Then on Hunter, like what he does with 5h1trolet, it either explodes, catches fire, rolls over & over , or crashes into something if not a combination of the above. Anyway, Season 2, episode 2, he drives a Hornet - WITHOUT destroying it!!! As much as I like AMC, I just don't see Hornet as a policeman car. Rebel, yes. Matador, yes. Ambassador, yes. Hornet, no. Sorry but Hornet just doesn't cut it to me. Too small.

Oh funny, I watch Breaking Bad online and Walking Dead on DVR...so the television station they originate from isn't as prominent to me. Funny, funny - I bet that was someone in the background snickering.

I saw the Eagle on breaking bad, but didn't notice an AMC on Walking Dead...

The AMC on walking dead is an old cherokee. I don't think I remember an Eagle in breaking bad though. There was a gremlin in heroes for a few episodes.

Which Bad Boys?   as there's three movies called bad boys (one's from finland, so I doubt it's that one).

There's Bad Boys (1995) with Will Smith and Martin Lawrence (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0112442/)

Or there's Bad Boys (1983) With Sean Penn and Clancy Brown and Ally Sheedy (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0085210/)


When you guys post these, I usually try to look them up on You tube, or Hulu, or where ever I can find them.
