I love it when old cars still have the original dealership badge. Its like a little piece of the cars history displayed on the trunk lid or hatch. My 83 is from Bob Bundy AMC Jeep Renault of Denver, My 86 is from Emich AMC Jeep of Lakewood/Denver.

Who's showroom floor did your eagle roll off of?

That's pretty neat! My '83 came from Emich of Lakewood/Denver then went to Texas before coming back to Colorado. I removed the dealer badge when I sold the car.

My '84 never had a dealer badge but I have the original paperwork that shows that it came from Bundy AMC.

Small world!

There were two dealerships in Harvey, North Dakota. John Webber Motors and Keller Implement. Keller Implement (which was a John Deere Implement as well) sold AMC's through 1987.

I Don't know why. But everybody's always talking about their STI or That guys EVO, I think I'll stick with my old, but reliable AmC. Did I ever tell you I was Full blooded Eagle?

My original dealer badge got lost when I had Pepe painted, which bummed me out.  However, I was at the junkyard today and found a Jeep from the same dealership.  It was a newer badge, and it doesn't say AMC, but it does say Eagle.  I"m not sure if I'll go ahead and attach it but its nice to have it.

I've got a Jerry Morris badge on the shelf. Don't know if it says AMC or not. If it does I'll let you know.

You guys notice how so many of the dealer badges are nearly identical...I wonder if there was a particular company that manufactured those plastic badges with the oval-ish bar in the center like the jerry morris one pictured in the above post. I have see atleast 10 badges from different dealerships with that same badge style.
