This is a family friendly event open to all AMC, Rambler, Jeep, Nash, Hudson vehicles through 1988 in any condition.

Hey Reagan,
Looking forward to the Regional! I'm trying to get my 401/4-speed buttoned up in time to drive my '71 Javelin. A little hung up on trying to rebuild my Hurst shifter, and still need to order a few important parts (oil pan, for instance ). I'll be there either way, but hopefully I'll be arriving in my project '71. And for the first time since about 1995 it's actually close to my house! See ya Jeff

Alrighty folks, we're only a little over two weeks away from the Lone Star Regional. Time to get those fluids changed and tires rotated (where applicable ). I want to remind everyone that this is a free event, but you can help sponsor it. Kevin Dalley is in charge of t-shirts for the event and prices are set tentatively at $15. All proceeds go toward offsetting the club's expenses in hosting the show. Contact Kevin at amxamc@aol.com to place your order and don't delay. We hope to see everyone there and remember also, it doesn't have to shine like a show car. Shoot, it doesn't even have to run under its' own power. Trailer your project out and let everyone check it out. Who knows, you may leave with an award for it.
Reagan

OK, the 401 probably won't be in the Javelin by October 3rd, but I did install the 4-speed and the 304 is still in there so I'll be there with an extra gear but the same number of cubic inches, haha!
I hope guys are bringing parts, I'm looking for some pulleys, a differential, and some other stuff. Plus I just love sifting through ued parts looking for that diamond in the rough... I'll start spiffing my Javelin up this weekend, looking forward to the 3rd!

My apologies for the delay in replying, but yes, there are some pics from the event posted on the AMC of Houston club website. Here is a link:
http://www.amcofhouston.org/2015%20TLSR.htm I took all of my pics on my iphone and need to resize them before posting here, but I had already done this one for my AMC e-mail newsletter and did a couple more very quickly to include here. This was an awesome opportunity shot that sadly didn't occur to me to set-up until folks had started leaving and another club member that is also an original owner that had attended with his car had left, so is not pictured here (Barry Blue and his '74 AMX). Pictured are original owners Tom Taylor, Larry Roberts and Allen Baker. And no, Tom doesn't usually park sideways in handicap spots, but he made a brief exception for this photo op And who doesn't like a friendly Gremlin greeting them to the show? We also had 4 Nash in attendance and here are three of them together. Everyone had a great time and our Long Distance winner, Mel Epling, even drove over 670 miles one way to be there. Other winners were: People's Choice: Ron Stein's beautiful 1947 Nash Ambassador Suburban Woody Ladies Choice: Don Jones' 1970 Rebel Machine Best Project: Jeff Gunn's 1971 Javelin Carriage Clubhouse Choice: Lee Brown's 1946 Nash Ambassador Look forward to seeing everyone here in Lufkin this spring for the East TX AMC Cruise-In and again next year for the Lone Star Regional.
