That’s awesome! I know the Guccis were rather snazzy!

@@Thearchivescd yeah. It’s quirky but epic at the same time. It was a 71k original mile car when I found it. Put over 10k on it since I got it back on the road in October

That car, same color,roof rack etc with the 304 v8 was our honeymoon car back in the day. 1979. Have a 74 v8 Gremlin for the memories now.

AMC is still alive today (just not known as AMC, or building cars). It's known as AM General (building trucks for the feds). Nice lil Sportabout you have there. They were great cars with quite a bit of space!

Those cars weren't very flashy but they were cheap, reliable transportation and if you kept the oil and filters changed they'd run forever.

Very true! Just a unique automobile! The wagon definitely looked the best. Thanks for watching!

thats actually a pretty good looking vehicle. But AMC can never live down the Pacer and the Gremlin lol

And of course the Gremlin was just the Hornet body chopped in the rear

The Gremlin X with V~8 power was a pretty cool little car. AMC didn't have deep pockets but they made some very reliable cars for young people and old folks that would certainly get you from point A to point B LOL.

Wow...good to see this rare Sportabout ... Let me share my find from January this year '24 ... When I bought a running and driving 1973 AMC Hornet Sportabout X Gucci edition ... 258 I6, automatic, power brakes with disk in front, tilt steering wheel, sport steering wheel, mag like wheels, independent reclining front seats, roof rack, AC is incomplete, body is rust and dent free, but needs a paint job ... ... So, we are both owners of a rare AMC Hornet Sportabout ... See you on the road or a car show ... .......................... 😎 🤗 🇺🇸 ................................
