Thanks Budwisr! -Matt.
I'm thinking about trying to go to this, the AMO nats are in charleston sc this summer but I want to go where the most from this group might be.
Don't really want to see 100 pristine Amx's
I will be there with my 79 AMC Pacer Hatchback. Brown/Tan with a 258 auto on the column.

Excellent News! But I don't understand the fire extinguisher part at the bottom. Please elaborate.
Out of all the car shows I've ever been to only the AMC ones require a fire extinguisher , makes you wonder !
None of mine have ever caught on fire, yet.....

Pretty typical insurance requirement.
i have never participated in a car show before, just as an observer. So if I want to be in the show with my AMC Pacer, I need to know where to purchase a fire extinguisher. How much do they cost on average?
You can get those little ones, for home use, at any big box store. Not that expensive. I keep one in trunk of the Ambo, just in case a show I go to should require one. I have not had to display it yet.
Thanks for the information Doug. Most Appreciated. What is a big box store? I used to own a 1970 AMC Ambassador 4 door sedan. It was green and it was a 232 auto on the column.

When I was in the AMO show, they required a fire extinguisher. The AMCRC didn't, they must have more faith in AMC's!!
Walmart, Target, Lowe's, Home Depot, K Mart, etc.
Thanks Doug. There is a Wal-Mart here in Kenosha that should have what I need for the show. -Matt.
Here in Ohio of all the car shows that I have attended in the last ten years all have required a fire extinguisher be placed behind the left rear tire. No extinguisher no show. Pretty simple rule in my opinion and a safe one.
Ever since I had a battery fire in my 70 AMX back when I was in high school, I've always carried a fire extinguisher in the cars I care about. Seems like pretty cheap insurance. Having said that, I've never seen anyone check for an extinguisher at the Kenosha show.
I am going to buy a fire extinguisher for the show and to have in my 79 Pacer while I drive around in Kenosha. Speaking of driving around in Kenosha:
I was driving down 22nd avenue in Kenosha yesterday, and a 79 Spirit AMX pulled into the gas station right in front of me. It was white with all the flares and spoilers with chrome wheels, not the factory Turbocast 11's. I pulled into the gas station, but the dude in the Spirit AMX pulled right into the mechanic's bay and then the door closed.
I laughed happily to myself, and continued on my journey
Last time I got lost. Could someone give directions going eastbound on I believe Rt.50 as I recall?
