I'll give you a little sneak peak, and let you know a nest member (not me) Is going to play a killer in a crime show on one of the discovery channels, and he talked them out of using a late 70's Mercury in Lu of his 87 wagon..... I'll have him post the details.

Great!  Will we get some respect??? Or do the bad guys drive the Eagle???

The killer drives it.

Either he/she does not want to outrun the police or its an off road chase scene -- that would be interesting.

[Eagle Kammback]

I would LOVE to see a chase scene with an Eagle
I can't wait to see it


If you pick up the most recent issue of Hot Rod, there is a whole section on 3 AMC Hot Rods, 2 Gremlins and a Spirit GT

That chase scene should be interesting. 

Eagle Kammback, thanks for the heads up.  I'll have to get that issue.

[ericarmstrong]

I can't guarantee a chase, but at least its in the episode.

My son informs me that HBO has a series coming out called True Blood that will have a red Gremlin in it.

IDK if some has mentioned this yet but if you ever watch the movie The persuit of happiness, which I thought was a good movie, There are a lot of AMC's in it. He drives a concord 2 door.

Yup Spirit for sure, cool sighting!!!

[Route 66 Rambler]

In the latest Coleman camping products commercial, it's done with a lot of old home movie footage.  One brief shot towards the end of the commercial features a Rambler Cross Country wagon, a black one, about a '59 or '60 model.

The last episode of Harper's Island that my wife was watching, they finally decided to drive away in the Hornet Sportabout that's usually sitting in front of the lodge, it gets shot up pretty good though, along with one of the people in the car...

[Eagle Kammback]

I guess I won't be watching that show anymore then

the only Time Magazine I ever purchased, and ever will purchase has a small section on some cars from the 70s
one Gremlin, and one Pacer, called the Pacer a car only the Jetzons could love, and the Gremlin was apparently named after a creature that disliked mechanical stuff (I never saw the movie Gremlins, was that what they were talking about) 12.00 magazine, I got it for 9.80 because of my employee discount, most expensive magazine I ever purchased ever
Celebrate the 70s, I wish I was my age back in 1973
