AMCs in the media

[JayRamb]

Watching the movie MOVING VIOLATION starring Stephen McHattie and Kay Lenz co-starring Eddie Albert from 1976. Several Matador's 1971 and 1972. Hornet Sportabout, 1973?, a Gremlin and a 67 or so Rambler American. A policeman crashed a circa 1973 Oldsmobile equipped with an Airbag. 3 Matadors crunched up. One Matador rolled three times. One of them the top sheered off A, B & C pillars completely by a semi, one Matador flipped. Pretty cool car chase with music much like Smokey and the Bandit.

Don't know if this has been posted yet. Was looking through a Hot Rod magazine couple days ago (not current issue, don't have it in front of me to say when it was), had a SUHWEEET Hornet in it. Will post which one when I find it to see.

**UPDATE**
Found it. Oct. '11 issue

I saw this in Breaking Bad. Season 2, Episode 11 'Mandala'





I think the sticker on the back says 'Auto Trader Post Inc'. Maybe 'Miami, FL' below that. Gotta love the '4x4' chalked on the windshield

Seems like the AMC channel has a nac for giving AMC cars cameos

How the heck did I miss that one....Breaking bad is my all time #1 favorite show!! Ya know, if I had a bit higher resolution screen I could almost make out the dealer badge on the trunk lid.

on this weeks powerblock episode of muscle car the featured car was a Big Bad Blue 69 AMX with a 390 man was it gorgeous.

I was watching American Pickers last night with the miss, they were heading to a guys museum type collection. As soon as they exit the van, the camera pans over to where the guy was standing, there was a pacer, I pointed it out of course  , then I noticed the un mistakable quarter window of a gremlin sitting behind the pacer, I pointed that out too, lol. Girlfriend then gives me a blank stare, out of nowhere came the comment "well duh, if there is one amc you can bet they have another not far away......" 

[shanebo]

Your wife does have a point...AMC's are like wild dogs...They are pack animals that dont do well all by themselves...they need to be among their own kind

  I just wish we could get every AMC we could get our hands that ran into one area, now THAT would be awesome, the logistics would be a PITA though.

I wish I could catch my wife saying something like that. Unfortunately she knows better.She wasn't very happy when I brought home the AMC Used Cars sign

I can about imagine what the expression was and possibly the choice of words from her! More power to you man!

Not really any yelling.  Just that look that says either, "What the heck are you going to do with that?" OR "What the heck is wrong with you?"  OR "Oh great more AMC stuff."  At least it wasn't another AMC vehicle.  Been tempted recently, but being broke keeps that from happening.
