AMX-Clamation!!!Volumevolume 15 Number 6 Novnov Serving the Northeast Ohio AMC enthusiast since 1991 AMX-Clamation!!!VolumeVolume 15 Number 6 Nov.Nov. - Dec. 2006 American Motors Ramblings... Scott Campbell It’s hard to believe that another car season has passed, my second one without anything cruise worthy. It’s odd, but without a show car in the garage it’s been harder to set aside days for car shows and cruise-ins. Being a spectator is still fun but it really isn’t the same, especially after having one toy or another to drive for the past 25 years. It was great to see so many NCAMC members and cars at the few events we were able to attend this year. Let’s hope this trend continues. Things should be very different for me in 2007. The pink AMX is well on its way to completion, for those of you not following along on the AMC Forum, she is painted, with brake lines and wiring reinstalled and by the time you read this the engine and transmission should be in place as well. I still hope to have her running before the end of the year. Of course I had set the end of last year as a dead- line for paint and that didn’t happen, so who knows... Anyway, it looks like there should be many great opportunities for us to bring out our beloved AMCs in 2007, including another big Kenosha show as mentioned in the last issue. For help in plan- ning your summer, check out our NCAMC web site for one of the most complete AMC show listings anywhere. ☻ ☻ ☻ The end of another year also means that it’s time to renew your NCAMC membership again. Included in this issue is a current membership roster. If your name has “06” next to it, your membership expires December 31, 2006. PLEASE take time to renew right now while you are thinking about it. Our super low $10.00 dues do not allow us to send out reminder postcards or extra issues to members who have not renewed. 2007 is shaping up to be another great year for North Coast AMC so please join us again.

Jan./Feb. newsletter January 1 for articles/December 22 for classifieds March/April newsletter March 1 for articles/February 19 for classifieds Exhaust Notes…… Jesse Marr and his 1971 Javelin made the “Your Car” section in the Friday, November 24th edition of the Plain Dealer. In this short article titled “Behind the Wheel”, Jesse discusses the background of his car as well as some of the work that was done on it. Since mice resided inside the Javelin as it sat in a barn for twenty years, Jesse had to completely redo the interior. The hardest part was the body work since the bondo where the car was hit had to be removed. His father Gary is also teaching him how to drag race. Jesse admits that he didn’t know much about Javelins when he first bought the car, which he bought mainly for looks. He also wanted something different. Javlynn’s Lust List (If I Had a Million Dollars and a Gargantuan Garage) Javlynn Sue Leair Heck, I may as well hop on the bandwagon with Shaune, Scott and Dan. (No, not in that way. They’re all mar- ried.) Here’s my luscious list of adorable automobiles. 1) Wild Plum Pierre Cardin Javelin - What Wild Plum does to me! Mmm Mmm Mmm! 2) Pacer - any year - coupe or sedan style preferred - Indian blanket style interior - just like the absolutely, mouthwateringly gorgeous, low-mileage red beauty that was part of Lew Brown’s collection that I got to drive. Love the poignancy of those expressive, round headlights. Love those curves; so round, so fi rm, so fully packed! 3) Matador coupe - reminds me of an anorexic Pacer - I just love those big, round headlights. 4) Wild Plum Gremlin - If I wanted another Gremmie - Yeah, and I guess a V-8 would be nice, too 5) Any red, white and blue AMC - Yes, this includes Rebel Machines, SC/Ramblers, Trans Am Javies and the like. 6) Any ‘69 Big Bad Orange or Big Bad Green AMX or Mod Javelin - Those are my two favorite Big Bad colors, which remind me of Halloween, my favorite holiday. 7) A Hornet hatchback - Heck, I love Gremlins so much, and a Hornet is just a Gremlin with a little more bootie. 8) A pink CJ Jeep - And if I can’t get a pink one, I want a camoufl age one. 9) A Rambler American convertible - one of the cutest AMC convertibles, in my opinion 10) Heck, ANY AMC, REALLY! Member Profile Dan Koch In this edition, we turn to one of our club’s newest mem- bers David Macy of Toledo, Ohio. David’s current passion is the beautiful black 1980 Spirit AMX shown here. Additionally, he has owned a ‘69 Rebel, ‘71, ‘72, and ‘74 Gremlins, a ‘74 Sport- about, a ‘77 Pacer Wagon, a ‘70 AMX, and an ‘87 Eagle Wagon. He included a card that reads “AMC Enthusiast, Conservator”. Of that I have no doubt as he revealed the following pedigree... “While living in the Akron area in the early 1970s, I met a fellow who was working at the AMC Cleveland office. I bought the ‘69 Rebel 4-door through him. He learned of JAVEX, the area AMC club that had just started up. After joining that, I got the three Gremlins over a period of time which we rallied and auto-crossed. When Mark Donohue was racing Javelins at Mid-Ohio, we attended those events. AMC cars even got to lap the Mid-Ohio race course. In 1975, we moved to Toledo and got involved in an auto-cross club called FIASCO (Fort Industry Auto Sports Club of Ohio). This was when we bought the 1970 AMX – 360, 4-speed, green with black mask hood, and tan interior. It was an export car – originally owned by an Air Force officer and taken with him to Germany (What a cool whirl on the Autobahn that would be! - ed.) The car had headers, a 3:15 rear end, and I believe it may have had the “Group 19” cam. I bought this car in Illinois from the AMC guru himself, Larry Mitchell. It was fast for a 360. Even with the relatively tall gear, at Milan Michigan Dragstrip, I spoiled the fun of more than one new Camaro beating them with a 12-year old AMC. The car ran 14:20’s at 92 mph. I finally sold the AMX in about 1986 – much to my son’s dismay! I got back into AMCs and club activities in 2004. I attended this year’s AMO convention in Dublin, July 27-29. I am currently a member of and active in the follow- ing clubs: Chrysler Classic Car Clubs Glass City AMC Great Lakes AMC Ohio American Motors Classics North Coast AMC American Motors Owner’s Association W. P. Chrysler Club P.S. - I might mention that my wife auto-crossed too and we attended to the “Ole Smokey Hill Climb” near Youngstown. We’ve also been to Nelson’s Ledges where Earl Daugherty runs his 185 mph Spirit-based sports car. Earl lives in nearby Hinckley and was president of JAVEX back in the ‘70s. He makes a great meeting guest and his son works for Track Time driver’s school. I have info on Earl’s car and photos too – let me know if you’re interested.” Of course we’re interested, David! The road racing corner of the high performance world is somewhat foreign to a number of us and we yearn to learn! Thank you for this diverse breath of fresh air and welcome to the club!

However, the turnout was fairly good with 20 people in attendance. Right - Tommy Zavernik as “The Dead that Eats” Mwah-ha-ha! Or better yet, get this boy some- thing to eat, because he is all bones!

  • The Talepipe
    The Talepipe March 2019 Fallbrook Vintage Car Club The Fallbrook Vintage Car Club is a group of members that share a common interest in the preservation and appreciation of vintage vehicles. We are dedicated to serving others through charitable events and activities that reflect positively on the Fallbrook community. A Region of the Antique Automobile Club of America About This Month’s Cover See the story about Bob Nixon elsewhere in this issue... The AMC Gremlin (also American Motors Gremlin) is an American subcompact automobile introduced in 1970, manufactured and marketed in a single, two-door body style in America (1970- 1978) by American Motors Corporation (AMC) — as well as in Mexico (1974-1978) by AMC’s Vehículos Automotores Mexicanos (VAM) subsidiary. Featuring a shortened Hornet platform and bodywork with a pronounced, almost vertical tail, the Gremlin was classified as an economy car by 1970’s U.S. standards. It competed with the Chevrolet Vega and Ford Pinto, as well as imported cars that included the Volkswagen Beetle and Toyota Corolla. The small domestic automaker marketed the Gremlin as “the first American-built import”. The Gremlin reached a total production of 671,475 over a single generation — and was superseded by a (thoroughly) restyled variant, the AMC Spirit. Designed to look either “cute or controversial - depending on one’s viewpoint ... for many, it seemed perfect for the free-thinking early 1970’s.” American Motors executives apparently felt confident enough to not worry that the Gremlin name might have negative connotations. Time magazine noted two definitions for gremlin: “Defined by Webster’s as ‘a small gnome held to be responsible for malfunction of equipment.’ American Motors’ definition: ‘a pal to its friends and an ogre to its enemies.’” The car’s cartoon-inspired mascot was marketed for product differentiation and was intended to be memorable to consumers.

  • AMC Straight-6 Engine 1 AMC Straight-6 Engine
    AMC straight-6 engine 1 AMC straight-6 engine The American Motors Corporation (AMC) straight-6 family of engines was used in AMC passenger cars and Jeep vehicles from 1964 through 2006. 195.6 American Motors' first straight-six engine was the 195.6 cu in (unknown operator: u'strong' L). It was produced from 1958 through 1965 in both overhead valve (OHV) and flathead (L-head) side-valve versions. Sometimes referred to as the 196 engine, this engine was originally designed by Nash in the 1930s as a flathead, and redesigned as an OHV engine in 1956. The flathead version was discontinued for 1956–1957, but reemerged in 1958 as the economy engine for the "new" Rambler American. When the engine was changed to an OHV configuration the water pump was moved from the left side of the engine (driven by a shaft extending from the back of the generator) to the front above the timing chain. When the flathead model was reintroduced it also received the new water pump. Equipped with such high quality parts as forged crankshafts and connecting rods, these engines earned a reputation for remarkable durability. The flathead, however, was prone to the typical flathead problem of overheating under sustained heavy load. This was from the hot exhaust traveling through the cylinder block to the exhaust manifold. American Motors introduced a die-cast aluminum block version of the OHV 195.6 cu in (unknown operator: u'strong' L) engine in 1961. It was produced through 1964. This engine used cast-iron cylinder liners and a cast-iron head.

The “School’s Out” car show now needs to be critiqued. Tempera- tures were in the high 80s when over twenty cars graced the show field including a dozen member cars. Cars included AMXs, Javelins, Gremlins, Rogues, Pacer, Rebel, Hornet and Eagle. One car arrived from Dayton, others from Grandville, Norwalk and a forth from Pittsburgh. Club members traveled from Sheffield Village, Medina, Middleburg Heights, Parma, Ashtabula, Wickliffe, Akron, Bath, Brooklyn Heights and Brunswick. Members with no healthy AMC available showed up in whatever they could find. New members were added to the club. Everyone interested left with a door prize. Food offerings included burgers, hot dogs, potato chips, pizza, popsicles, pop, donuts, pasta salad, and more. We were so busy that the 50/50 raffle never got off the ground. Gary and Debbie Steely spent the night at the farmhouse to help with the final preparations in the early morning. Javlynn Sue and Amber Veverka had cameras full of pictures. Amber quickly assembled a slideshow on her computer that included individual car pictures along with Forrest Barber’s aerial photographs that were taken as he battled wind gusts over the show field. Lessons were learned and additional feedback is needed. Many of the people on hand suggested that a date further from high school graduation time might be better. People seemed to indicate that the show was a success, but… we discovered that the entry fee was actually too low to adequately fund the show.

  • The 1964 Rambler Tarpon Concept Car Article from Fish Tales
    Marlin History The 1964 Rambler Tarpon Concept Car By Joe Howard, Fish Tales Editor Vol 9 No 1, March 2008 Distinctive! Different! That best describes the AMC Marlin. There certainly was nothing else like it on the road when it debuted in 1965. How did the Marlin come to be? How did the design concept begin? Viewing the Marlin in retrospect, we can see that it has proven to be one of the most popular of all collectible AMCs. Let’s look back and see how this unique automobile started. Early in 1963, American Motors management started angling for “a new car with a sports flair”. Richard (Dick) Teague, then AM’s Director of Styling, and his staff were happy to comply. Their average age hovered around 35, and they were excited about developing a car more suited to younger tastes. One opinion by Jim Alexander, a former AM designer, was that Teague chose a compact fastback because he had heard about Plymouth’s soon-to-be-released Barracuda “and felt that we could do something like that, too”. On the other hand, Vince Geraci, who managed Senior Car exteriors, couldn’t recall any mention of the Barracuda at that time but suggested that Teague “wanted a fighter for the Mustang. [And] we didn’t have the wherewithal that Ford had to retool. We either had to take it off the American body, or off the Classic body”. The 1964 Rambler Tarpon Concept Car Either way, Teague’s answer was a pillarless, fastback roofline grafted on to AM’s entry-level Rambler American.

  • AMX-Clamation!!!Volumevolume 14 Number 3 May-June 2005 American Motors Ramblings
    Serving the Northeast Ohio AMC enthusiast since 1991 AMX-Clamation!!!VolumeVolume 14 Number 3 May-June 2005 American Motors Ramblings... Scott Campbell Okay, so I lied. In the January/February issue I promised a return to Norwalk for Great AMC Day with my tur- quoise ‘69 AMX. Who could have guessed that instead I would sell it after 22 years of ownership? I sure wouldn’t have! This story begins late last year when it was mentioned on the AMC Forum that a certain factory pink AMX might be offered for sale. The owner really wanted an AMX to modify, and in his opinion this car was just too unusual to alter from stock. As I read this I thought, “wow, someone is going to score a really rare AMX!” I didn’t give it any more thought as I had seen the car last year in Kenosha and it looked nice. That combined with the special color would certainly put the car well out of my range. Then in January I happened upon Eddie Stakes’ monthly “Shut Up And Drive” listing of AMCs for sale all over the country. There, part way down was: 1969 AMX 390, pink, $16K. That got me thinking... In late January I contacted “PinkAMX” on the Forum asking if he had ever completed the sale of his car and if it was the same one on Eddie’s list. He didn’t even know abut the “SUAD” listing but confi rmed that yes, it was his car and that it was still for sale.
