Eagle Kammback, isn't that a Maverick? 
in the Comic Book? I'm pretty sure that's a Matador Coupe, the Maverick was about half the size of those cars, there are about 6 of those daily driven here, so I've seen a lot of them

here's one did not see an eagle in, but there was plenty of other AMC's getting smashed in it.. I'm talking about gone in 60 sec 2. the creator also made deadline auto. love his movies wish they remade all of his movies but it still would not be as good as his. yes I'm talking about the "car-crash-king" H.B. Halicki. you know whats weird I fell in love with the original gone in 60 sec. before the remake and still believe it was done right the first time. but I did love the gt mustang in the remake, just cried when she gets killed in the end. oh well check out the 3 or so movies by Toby and you will in joy all the old cars that flash before your eyes

I actually have the original Gone in 60 Seconds movie, remade on DVD, but I've never seen the refilmed movie.  Never really interested me to be honest.

There were a couple mentions of AMCs in The new Click and Clack automotive book that came out recently.  I got it for Christmas.  They mention both wanting a '65 Rebel MAchine.  And they mention AMC two other times about having unique and ugly cars unfortunately.  Oh well, press time is press time in my book.

Well even in wanting a '65 Rebel Machine, they discredit themselves. The Machine was not produced until 1970 (?) Maybe Mick should take them for a Terror Ride in his wagon, or maybe Joshpit in his SX/4...

I believe Rebels were still Classics in '65.  I had one, a '65 Classic that is.

Well let me look it up again.  Maybe they said Ambassador.  I finished that book quite some time ago, and I have finished 3 others since.
