A body value

Same with AMC cars. The Javelin, AMX, etc. Younger guys don't see AMC as the red headed stepchild of the American auto industry the same way most older people would.

When it comes to muscle era Mopars, the A body stigma has always been a big joke to me. A, B, and E are all the same underneath; there's nothing radically different about any of them.
The A body is lighter, thus faster per cubic inch or per H.P.
It is also cheaper and easier to find affordable parts for.

I always liked the AMX cars. I remember missing a deal on a Mark Donahue Replica when in High school in the 80's because Dad would not loan me the cash. I always paid Him back, He just did not want it in his driveway.

My first car was a 1970 Ford Maverick. It was the Grabber edition and it was Grabber Green.

That car was left on the side of the road because it broke down and I had no way to get it home and Dad did not want it in his driveway.

I would give alot to have that car back now.

I have a picture of that car somewhere.
