LH> Which makes AMC's... Mopars!!!
Just the AMC's after the buyout, the old ones were bastardized pieces
of GM (Delco), Ford (Autolite), and Chrysler parts. They made their
own engines, most of the time, and some were pretty good. Mark Donahue
campaigned a Javelin successfully around '69 to early 70's. The 69 and
70 390 AMX as well as the 70 360 Hornets were pretty hot.
Intersting how the US taxpayers bailed out Chrysler and they then invested
in Mitsubishi and bought AMC.
