Car Show/Club Meeting
« on: May 26, 2018, 10:35:41 AM »
IF anybody's in the St. Louis area & interested, Gateway AMC Club is having this month's meet at the train museum (The National Museum of Transportation) is the full/legal name. I always called it 'train museum' because they had a train right by the entrance where we unloaded the kids (I used to drive school bus). Most people just call it the Transportation Museum I think. Anyway, just a thought. No entry fee, no prizes either. Just a chance to show off your AMC & meet some folks. I'm planning to try to be there, will be my first time trying this car show thing. First time I've had one show worthy. BlackBird certainly wasn't & White Eagle wasn't there either. See what happens. Musta goofed somewhere, THOUGHT if I listed it on the calendar, it'd post the date on it. It's next Sun. (3 June, 2018). Guy I talked to said he thought it started at 10:00 A.M.

Just found out they (train museum) have a wiki page!

Pics. from the show. Most are AMC/related (ancestors). Some are from inside the museum & a few aren't at all AMC related. They DID call it 'Orphan Cars'.  :P

Welcome. I think there's a few in there, take that back, I  know there's a few in there (Cougar & Falcon)  that aren't AMC related, but most are. Either AMC or ancestors of (except the Renault & it was after they 'merged'[?] with AMC).
