By the way, for those of you who missed it, the Kammback
was item 4607222101. I wish I knew how to post the direct link but,
don't know how. Paul Paul Hancock <kwikbiker@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:

items. anywho I'll check tomorrow and let you know>

Sure send that to me, as I just was quoting
the stockholders report from 1985 in another online place as someone asked
when 'AMC quit putting their logos on cars' and well, not to get off
topic, but this was my answer...............
"One more thing. About the 88 Eagles, it is
my understanding that Chrysler
removed all exterior AMC emblems from
the 88s. It I believe goes back into
1986. I have stock holders
information here and rare stuff I will have to
check into. The reason
why I mention this is the ratification of the Renault
transaction was
7.29.85. But Renault was rather adamant about having AMC
logo on
'their' cars. It goes back further into the strained Alliance era
where AMC wanted some of the glory with the 'car of the year' and was
sticking little AMC decals inside the back of the windows of the
Renaults. I
could go back further even as talks with Renault
LePeiceOfShit began in
1977!
But someone on your site asked about decals.
Interiorwise, you could find
AMC emblems and such all the way into
1992! Radios, belts, hoses, you name
it, tons of this stuff stuff had
AMC on it. However, when it came to
exterior, no, because Renault
didn't want to be associated with a
failing/failed car company. So
they tried to generic the Eagle. I believe
the main reason why was
press. Every time you read or heard about AMC they
had a hyphen in
from of name like "struggling American Motors" and "post
another loss"
or "lose millions in the quarter" for instance. Sort of like
what we
see with Ford and GM right now....damaged goods."
Interesting that you found something like
that from 1978. AMC had some monster problems, especiall quality control
which sucked, from 76, 77, 78. They had been schmoozing with the frogs (le
piecesoffeces) since mid 76, but 'talks began in earnet' in 1977. So from
a historical aspect, stuff like that (to me) is facinating.

Thanks guys, I'm really tempted. Have to make a
decision soon. Think I'll go back for another look. Also Eddie , I
was doing some demo on a job the other day and found a Det. News paper
from 78 with an article on AMC about then chairman Meyers outlook for
AMC just before the merger with Renault. Nothing spectacular, but
interesting just the same. I'll send it to ya as soon as I get a
chance. Paul eddiestakes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Those are rather rare Paul, and seldom
seen when new, and well, seldom seen now. I believe that Kammback
lasted only a few years and like the SX/4, not a whole lot of them
sold. I probably have the production figures here somewhere could dig
up for you. Good luck, maybe make the guy a offer off e-bait to see if
he will accect, that way he won't get popped with 'final value fee' by
fee-bay.

Re: Motor Mounts/Trans mounts website found....
I hate to change the subject, but it,s
easier to reply than compose, so please excuse. I've been watching a
79 Spirit Kamm back on ebay. I wasn't aware of the spirit even
though I grew up in an AMC familly. It kind of looks like a
stretched Gremmie. If anyone has seen this car could you give me
some input, as I am thinking about bidding. I now have a 74 Gremlin
but this car looks to good to pass up. what do ya think? Paul

Glad to hear from you again Joe. Wondered if you were still
around here. Man I just missed a 72 Jav up here for $150. I talked
to this guy last year and it seemed like he did not want to sell
anything. Well he tells me yesterday he sold 2 of his javs. He was
pissed because the guy turned the one in a weeks time. I probably
should have told him he should have sold it to me. LOL

the
motor mounts were are the same(thanks for the
info)...BUT i need to
know about trans mounts??? Will a 904
trans mount work on a
727...Will a 75-77 Matador trans(727?)
trans mount fit a 74 AMX 727?
I just didn't know why the
company does not list a set ( no motor or
trans) for the
71-74 V8 Jav/AMX...or a V8 Gremlin/Hornet?? They sell
individual pieces or as a set..(two motor mounts and a trans
mount).
