Hi. Matt here. I have a question. Did VAM make Eagles? If so, does anyone have any photos?

Thanks for letting me know Doug. VAM is very interesting to me. Life here in Kenosha WI is good. The AMC/JEEP show is this summer. Should be a fun time. -Matt.

Bill D and I are thinking about coming.  Good to hear Kenosha is still on the map.

If everything goes as planned, my brown/tan 79 AMC Pacer Hatchback will be in the show.

I think Bill will be brining his Red SX/4.  I hope I have mine back on the road by then.  If not, I will bring the 70 Ambo HT, gas guzzler.

You're welcome Don. No Problem.

have you started a thread in the Events and Clubs Board yet?  Might be a good time to start promoting this year's Kenosha Homecoming.

So you are in contact with Bill D? It would be nice if he would come around here. He's full of valuable knowledge.

I believe that there are other events taking place from Tuesday through Saturday here in Kenosha besides the car show. I think there is a parade and some cruises at local drive- in's, and possibly more. I will check with one of my friends here in Kenosha who might be able to shed more light on the situation.

Be sure to check out the Historical Center's display during the show. My Jeep Wrangler will be on display and maybe my friends black 80 Eagle coupe. I'll be driving either my 70 Big Bad Orange AMX or my 7,000 mile 80 Spirit AMX. Kenosha is a blast! I can't wait! :blob1:

The Historical Center has a revolving AMC display at the center. This year during the show it happens to be featuring Jeeps.

Where is the center? I love Jeeps. I always wanted to get a 401 Jeep Cherokee Chief.

Thanks Budwisr! Now we can all check out the link for the "Kenosha Homecoming."
I don't know how to post links. I am going to set up a new thread for the Kenosha Homecoming 2014, and then you please add the link. -Matt.

Budwisr, I set up a new thread in the proper location. Please add the link there. Thanks, -Matt.
