	AMX Files: AMC History 1954-1987
		American Motors was formed from the merger of Nash and Hudson in 1954, and ended with the merger of AMC into Chrysler in 1987.
		AMC ultimately couldn't cope with the double whammy of foreign competition and federal safety and environmental regulations, and it had to evolve yet again to survive.
		In its final years, AMC was primarily a manufacturer of non-AMC vehicles: cars designed by Renault, which bought a controlling interest in the company, and the Jeep line, acquired from Kaiser in 1970.

	Management History and Strategy at American Motors Corporation (AMC) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)

		AMC was also burdened with an aging product line, a shortage of cash to finance model changes, and growing competition in the small car market.
		AMC was forced to constantly innovate for 33 years until Chrysler extinguished it in a merger.

	AMC Antique, Vintage and Classic Parts For Sale
		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.
		American Motors planned to use a General Motors-built Wankel rotary engine for the Pacer, but was forced to use their existing 258 in³ I6 when GM aborted their rotary engine development program.
		Although developed by American Motors in the early 1980s as the successor to the XJ Cherokee, the Jeep Grand Cherokee is considered an AMC-developed vehicle although it received the Chrysler Pentastar badge.

	The Rambler Years
		AMC embarked on a consolidation program that enabled it to build three lines of cars -- American, Classic, and Ambassador -- on variations of the same solid, reliable platform.
		After AMC's visionary leader, George Romney, resigned to become governor of Michigan, his successor reversed course and tried to turn the company into a full-line imitation of the Big 3.
		AMC cars grew larger and the company's image grew less distinct, a problem exacerbated by the competition's move into the compact and intermediate market segments that Rambler had pioneered.

	American Motors
		American Motors was the company created by the merger of Nash-Kelvinator Corporation and Hudson Motorcar Company in 1954.
		In 1957, the last Nashes and Hudsons rolled off the assembly lines and American Motors became the sole division until 1970 when AMC purchased the rights and facilities of Jeep from Kaiser-Willys.
		Part of it is that many Americans, including me, will always see the underdog as the more noble player in any struggle.
