There were a few bugs that needed sorting out with the transmission and fuel delivery systems, but once it ran right, it ran right! This post is mostly pictures – about 9,000 words worth.

While attending a local car show this past Sunday, I was able to capture this very unusual Matador. I like the quirky AMCs of this era, with their distinctive roof lines, to the intricate details of the interior. This would be a car I would love to own, but there are so many others before…
