A new sub-forum has been created under General AMC Chat to hold information about AMC and related companies (Rambler, Nash, etc.) dealerships. The main thrust is the Lost Dealership Project spearheaded by Ohio AMX with valuable contributions by farna and others.
The moderators include the normal infamous gang of 6 but in this case, I've added Ohio AMX and farna.
PLEASE, restrict posts to factual information, photos, etc. - things that can be verified or that add value to the project as a whole.
"Me Too" and "this is cool" posts should be restricted to the general chat or other areas. Only additional information should be placed here.
This new structure will ensure that this information is always easily and readily accessable and will not get buried in years worth of other posts, information or chat.
Thank you all for your help. -------------  http://theamcpages.com" rel="nofollow - http://theamcpages.com http://antique-engines.com" rel="nofollow - http://antique-engines.com |

OK folks. Mike is toying with the idea of shutting down the AMC
Heritage Forum. He has valid reasons mostly due to inactivity and only
a few people assisting in the archiving of AMC Heritage information.
Now a few of us are lobbying him to make a few changes and maybe not
close the doors. IMO we need one place where the history of AMC will
be preserved for anyone with a computer to access for free. So if you
have not been there for a while and want to see Mike continue on with
this project I invite you to go visit again and if you want, go to this
thread and voice your comments: http://www.forum.route66rambler.com/index.php/topic,1077.0.html - http://www.forum.route66rambler.com/index.php/topic,1077.0.html If you are not registered and wish to comment then you will need to register, but you will then have to wait a bit for your e-mail confirmation. |

| I've looked on many lists and have unsuccessfully found any info or even a mention on Sandra auto sales located in Chicago. The dealer tag on my 1962 Rambler Classic reads "Sandra Auto Sales." Thanks |

Hello Bill, I am a new member (or possibly a member, again) - LOL! I am working on restoring my early 1975 Pacer D/L. I am the First owner and the Fourth owner. I bought it back from a cousin, in Minnesota, in about 2010 and drove it back to California. My cousin saved all the paperwork and manuals with the car. I have the Window Sticker, Optional dealer equipment sticker, Delivery Sticker, Warranty card and Build sheet found under the seat. I ordered my car at 'Fullerton AMC', Fullerton, CA in Feb. 1975 and accepted delivery on March 20th, 1975. I also, had my car serviced at 'Countywide AMC' in Garden Grove, CA with several repair orders. If you need any of this info for these dealers, for your project I would be happy to forward in electronic format. Gary

My family bought three new AMC's over the years. '63 Rambler Classic 550 from Economy Rambler, Pomona CA '69 Javelin (Base) 290 from Ocean Rambler, Oceanside, CA '73 Javelin 304. I think it came from Ocean Rambler too (perhaps Ocean AMC by then?) but I was in the Army at that point and am not sure where they bought it. ------------- '73 Javelin 360 (current project) '72 Baja Bronze Javelin SST '69 Big Bad Orange AMX (2018 Teague Heritage Award) SOLD  |

The White 70JavelinSST was purchased by me from the dealership it was originally sold at when it was new in December of 1969 or early 1970. I bought it in March of 1972 after it was traded back in to the dealer by the original owner. I removed the dealer badges shortly after I purchased it. Recently I was fortunate enough to find a dealer badge that was given to me in an envelope with the dealer letterhead on it. I felt very lucky.  ------------- 70 Javelin SST, second owner, purchased 1972 |

Great find, Armand! Are you going to bring that Javelin to Kenosha in July so we all can see it? It's practically in your backyard! ------------- '73 Javelin 360 (current project) '72 Baja Bronze Javelin SST '69 Big Bad Orange AMX (2018 Teague Heritage Award) SOLD |

Camjam, I've thought many times about bringing the car to Kenosha. I've often wondered how to do that without an enclosed trailer and truck to pull it with. I don;t like it at all when the car gets wet or when it it out of my site. Outside overnight at a motel is a big no no. I need a truck and enclosed trailer, er, I need more money.

I was that way with my BBO AMX, so I understand. Now I have a driver Javelin and get to enjoy it. I'll still tow it long distances (probably will trailer it to Kenosha) but I'm driving it the 12 hours to Colorado Springs in June. ------------- '73 Javelin 360 (current project) '72 Baja Bronze Javelin SST '69 Big Bad Orange AMX (2018 Teague Heritage Award) SOLD |

| Hi Bernie Pfeifer from Saskatoon Saskatchewan not sure if our old dealership is registered but it was called Metro Motors owned by Jerry Ackerman. From the opening of our local drag strip they were actively participating with sponsorship and actually bringing AMC’s out to race other dealers in the area.I myself still compete with my AMX |
