happy 327 day!

 the 1st thing that comes to mind is the Chevy 327

but there was a Jeep 327 (nickname Vigilante) that came from the Rambler 327 in 1956, 6 years before the Chevy 327, and the Jeep 327 was available in the Gladiator trucks and Wagoneers from 1965-68, and it also was available in the Marlin

and a BMW 327

Bob Bruhn’s 1965 AMC Marlin, radically better looking than any Marlin you'll ever see



The new nose is pointed and is made from a Chevy Nova hood over a custom grille insert and the rear bumper of a 1965 Plymouth.












the only Marlin I can think of that is cooler, is the A/FX Marlin http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2010/01/afx-marlin-never-heard-of-it-before.html

more contest give-a-way cars from 1969-1970, I'm surprised so many were given away, does anyone do this now?


isn't this the craziest thing you've seen today? A spokesmodel for a burger joint giving away a Superbird!


Both from the newest Mopar website, Jay is posting all the Mopar advertsing he's dug out of old newspapers at http://moparadsandoddities.blogspot.com/

6th annual West Coast all AMC car show at the NHRA museum




Finally a 2nd SC/Rambler is found in So Cal

I didn't know what the hell tri-poised power is.. . it's the 3 motor mounts AMC used



Goof collection of 8 tracks!
















 AMX comparison shots



 Comparison photos

 How unusual... the AM is across the top, and the FM band  is on the bottom. Must have been at that turning  point of history when FM was in demand enough to add to the radio, but not as desired as AM that had better music.

 What a great road trip collection! Coolest set I've ever seen

 I've seen the same hood ornaments on other cars, I wonder if they were generic?

 Machine and Marlin... only in AMC (American Motor Corp) could they decide on cool names... OK, the Marlin flopped, but I like it. Hell, I guess the Machine wasn't a big success either, but damn... it is a great looking car!
