	AMC Hornet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The AMC Hornet was a compact automobile made by the American Motors Corporation (AMC) beginning with the 1970 model year and continuing through the 1977 model year.
		AMC, the resulting corporation formed by the merger of Nash Motors and Hudson continued to produce Nash-based Hornets, which were sold under the Hudson nameplate from 1955 to 1957.
		AMC used the Hornet as the basis for its AMC Gremlin, which consisted of the front half of the two-door Hornet's body and a truncated rear section with a window hatchback.

	American Motors Corporation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The aging Hornet was hastily face-lifted to create the "new" 1978 AMC Concord, the higher trim levels of which were intended to partially compensate for the departed Matador.
		In March 1987, Renault's stake in AMC was purchased by Chrysler, along with rest of the company's shares, primarily in an effort to acquire the popular Jeep Cherokee and Wrangler vehicles.
		AMC's technologically advanced Bramalea Assembly and Stamping Plants in Brampton, Ontario (recently completed at the time of the Chrysler takeover) are still active, and now produce the best-selling LX-cars — the Dodge Charger, Dodge Magnum, and the Chrysler 300.

	The American Motors Marque
		AMC was forced to consolidate, and in 1981 was left with three models (Concord, Spirit and Eagle) based on a single platform -- just like in the early 60s.
		Luckily for AMC the Hornet's pleasantly contemporary styling held up well over the years, because its chassis and sheet metal served as the basis for most of the company's output over the next 18 years: the Gremlin, Concord, Spirit, and Eagle 4WD cars all sprang from the Hornet's loins.
		AMC's large, unrecovered investment in the Pacer contributed significantly to the company's decline, but in recent years the Pacer (along with the Gremlin) has become a 70's icon in countless movies, TV shows, and commercials, ironically preserving AMC's memory in popular culture.

	AMC Transmissions
		AMC used a multi-pattern bellhousing from the late 70's through at least 83 had patterns drilled for T-96, T-14/15/4/5/SR-4.
		AMC V8's emerged with the 290cid on '66 and the bellhousing was changed as well when the old rambler V8's were dropped from production.
		AMC, AMX, Jeep and AMC Gremlin are trademarks of Daimler-Chrysler Corp.

		AMC's compact two and four door sedan Hornet models continued unchanged from their introduction for the 1970 model year.
		All Hornet 2 and 4-door sedans, as well as the 4-door wagon were the so-called SST models.
		The Hornet was painted the AMC factory-spec red/white/blue racing colors, was number #15, and was sponsored by the Denver Area AMC Dealers.

		With so much riding on the success of AMC's new addition, the Pacer, the Hornet line would be a carryover from it's previous year.
		And although all car sales were tumbling, the Hornet would yet again be counted on to tow the company line.
		The Hornet line wore the same styling for 1975, now six years old, with few mechanical changes.

	1973 AMC Hornet X
		AMC was represented by just one other owner that brought his two cars- a ’69 AMX and a ’70 Javelin.
		Getting back to the Hornet, I installed the new wiper blades into the OEM frames I received last week, then installed them on the car…and they look much nicer than the fl units it was wearing before.
		The film featured some nice stunt driving with the 360 Hornet, but it’s real claim to fame is a cork-screw jump completed on the first take by a heavily-modified 6-cylinder ’74 Hornet X that stood in for the 360 car used everywhere else.

		AMC is generally thought of as the brand used for all American Motors passenger cars following the demise of Rambler, but the names "American Motors" and "AMC" seem to have been used interchangeably in corporate literature and on the cars themselves well into the 1980s.
		AMC's technologically advanced Bramalea Assembly and Stamping Plants in Ontario (recently completed at the the time of the Chrysler takeover) are still active, and now produce the best-selling LX-cars - the Dodge Charger, Dodge Magnum, and the Chrysler 300.
		At least one AMC dealership, Collier Motors of Pikeville, North Carolina, is still in business - although at this point the dealership is largely overgrown with weeds and its cars are rusting where they sit.

	AMC Eagle AWD
		The AMC came standard with a 4.2L (258 cubic inch) I6 engine with a 2-barrel Carter Carburetor, this engine produced 112hp at around 4000rpm and 210-lb/ft torque at around 1500rpm.
		In 1981 the "new" Eagle 50 series cars were presented, they were basically AWD AMC sports which were essentially deritives of the original AMC Hornet 2 and 4 door of 1970.
		In the last 17 years of American Motors, 50 percent or more of their cars were based on the AMC Hornet, The Eagle had the same body as the Hornet except for the following differences: Front end and headlights (or nose), Hood (or bonnet), Tail-lights (the Eagle featured separate lights for braking and turning).

		AMC had some cars that were okay, some cars that were really cool at the time, and some cars that were forgettable.
		By the way, the two top V8's from AMC the earlier 327 and later 390/401 cid V8's had forged steel rods and crank as standard.
		It may have not been the fastest but it was still a damn fast car and were guaranteed to get looks from people with the crazy patriotic red, white and blue paint job and the hood scoop.
