Looks great, Tom. I guess I could have posted pics of my Expedition. We made some noise also, 3 X 20 rnd .223 clips simultaneously, is quite the fireworks show.

It looks like a pro-streeted Gremlin to me. There's a surprising number of these that I see at the drag strips.

Yup, AMC brought us some great and iconic vehicles. Javelin, AMX, Jeep Cherokee (especially the XJ), Hornet, Rambler, Eagle, Jeep CJs (Especially the -7), Jeep Wagoneer, Jeep Scrambler... and the Pacer, Gremlin. They were kind of ahead of their time in some of the vehicles they brought to market.

I have only owned and driven one... The Jeep XJ, but mine was build after Chrysler took them over.
