Super quick shots of my part in the display at this weekends AMC Expo. I'm calling this series "Versus", you can probably guess why, and the next planned installment will be Darth and Luke.
But first i need to get better shots of them.
Very interesting is the "Auto Becker" sticker. Auto Becker was a dealer in Düsseldorf who imported all the exclusive car brands to Germany like Facel Vega, Iso Rivolta, Volvo, Monteverdi, Rolls Royce, Bentley, Jaguar, AC Cobra, Aston Martin, Panther, Ferrari,... I didn´t know they where also selling AMC.

Every time I do an AMC, I check to see if it has an "American" color option, because they usually do. This one is my favorite livery so far. Check out the red, white, and blue stripes in the grill! That's awesome. So is the hood tach that's built into the hood scoop. It's pure silly excess and I love it.
I've been pushing myself a bit with my builds lately, and this one isn't as complex as a lot of recent stuff I've tackled, but I still had to come up with a new technique or two to pull it off. It's a great feeling when it all comes together.

I have a soft spot for the AMC Pacer. This one was gorgeous!

The AMC Rebel (known as the Rambler Rebel in 1967) is a midsized car produced by American Motors Corporation (AMC) from the 1967 until the 1970 model year. It replaced the Rambler Classic. The Rebel was replaced by the similar AMC Matador for the 1971 model year. The Rebel was positioned as the high-volume seller in the independent automaker's line of models.
Also new for 1968 was the Rebel 550 Convertible, the last AMC convertible, which replaced the American. The 550 was the base level convertible as the top trim version moved from 770 to the SST model joining the two-door hardtop. The two SST body styles featured more trim and features that included individually adjustable and reclining front seats, as well as simulated air-intakes ahead of the rear wheels. The interiors of AMC's Rebel made extensive use of a new olefin fiber carpeting.

Strobist: 1 SB-24, triggered by PWs, 1/16 power, into a white umbrella camera left. 1/20 sec @ f2.5 and a little work in Lightroom. It was practically dark when this was shot, but the longish exposure took advantage of the little ambient light.
I like these. Not a fan of the wheels on this one though.
I'm pretty sure a local used car dealership close to where I lived in the mid 90s had one of these as a sort of promotional tool. I think they had some other Americana as well. They're long gone now though.
This one, being RHD, is one of the few official imports before they stopped selling them here due to bad press I think, from the motoring journalists of the time. I believe they were converted to RHD by the importers, as they were only available as LHD from the factory.
“The AMC complex, at 14250 Plymouth Road, dates to 1927 and once sprawled 1.4 million square feet. It has been empty since 2010, when it was sold by Chrysler after the automaker's bankruptcy. Anything of value inside the building was subsequently removed as scrap, and a large back section was razed.
What's left includes the main yellowish-brick building and its tall university-like tower, as well as a long, attached three-story structure. The complex is open to the elements, awash in graffiti and missing many windows and some walls.
There has been considerable illegal dumping at the site. Chrysler kept about 900 employees in the building as late as 2009 before shifting work to its Auburn Hills headquarters.
The entire property was offered in the treasurer's tax foreclosure auction last fall (2015) for the price of $500 — plus $232,000 in unpaid taxes. The sole bidder was a Commerce Township man who backed out of the deal for undisclosed reasons.
The Treasurer's Office then offered the property to the city of Detroit, which didn't want it.
Tyler said the property's ownership will likely go to the Wayne County Land Bank before year's end (2016). County officials have brainstormed possible redevelopment and reuse options, which all would entail taking down "the majority of the existing structure," he said.
