The Pacer was officially sold in France by the Parisian garage "Jean-Charles Automobiles".
The car was famous for its advertising with Brigitte Bardot ( www.google.com/search?q=pacer+bardot&source=lnms&... ) and its participation in the 1976 movie "L"aile ou la cuisse", with Coluche and Louis de Funès ( www.imcdb.org/vehicle_3626-AMC-Pacer-1975.html ).
I knew this car from Amsterdam some years ago, but I missed her already for a while. Here it showed up, early in the morning.
The original colour used to be beige, but in the past she has been painted also black some time.

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.

Taken at the annual Spring Grove car show held in Spring Grove Cemetery and Arboretum in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Being one of the last significant shows of the year this one attracts lots of cool cars which necessitates packing them in close together. Shinny cars close together with lots of sun and strong shade coming from the trees, makes for difficult shooting. If I had other shots of this car or other Javelins, I'd probably not post this one, but the clean lines and beautiful paint job means I have to. When I looked up other images of Javelins, I saw several with the same paint scheme details which I thought were custom. Between the Javelin and Marlin, AMC had some great designs which I don't remember being all that popular at the time. Looking back, I think they were better looking that the Camaro or Mustang. What a shame.
From Wikipedia:
"The AMC Javelin is an American front-engine, rear-wheel-drive, two-door hardtop automobile manufactured and marketed by American Motors Corporation (AMC) across two generations, 1968–1970 and 1971–1974 model years.
Styled by Dick Teague, the Javelin was available in a range of trim and engine levels, from economical pony car to muscle car variants. In addition to manufacture in Kenosha, Wisconsin, Javelins were assembled under license in Germany, Mexico, Philippines, Venezuela, as well as Australia – and were marketed globally.
As the winner of Trans-Am race series in 1971, 1972, and 1976, the second-generation AMX variant was the first pony car to be used as a standard vehicle for highway police car duties by an American law enforcement agency."
