1977-78 AMC AMX: Lower-Case Letters

摘要

American Motors was starting to run out of gas by 1977. The company bet big on the 1974 Matador coupe and 1975 Pacer, but demand for both peaked soon after introduction and then the two cars quickly came up snake eyes on the sales sheets. Jeep was a bright spot during the mid Seventies, but the profitable 4×4s from Toledo weren't able to support the whole company.rnProduct-development funds were becoming scarce, but the company did enter 1977 with a freshened Gremlin and a new station wagon for the Pacer. Recognizing that the waning "muscle" market still existed-even if superficially-AMC planners responded with a gussied-up Hornet wearing an old name: AMX.
