1975 in HJ form. 1976 in HQ form, but with the big flares. AMC issue 21 has a feature. Not sure on videos though.

Thanks ,oz,i seem to remember that AMC did do a feature on that ,interesting that it went from HJ form first and not the other way round.

CAMS required it to go back to HQ as HJ never ran the 350 IIRC.

Awesome car and sounded brilliant, saw it at the 'old' Calder back in the 70's quite a few times, Sport Sedans were big back then..

Thats one awesome car ,thanks Ian ,i just bought a Armco model of this car ,it must have had a few variations to the body over the years apart from the front end ,i think the rear spoiler must have been added later.I heard this car is still around and being restored. :spoton:

Must have been a hand full, but that re-pass he put on Moffat's Monza is one of the best passes i've seen .....  rear tyre's all lit up and still made the pass ........  great stuff .....  what a Car, what a Motor, what a Driver ...   mmmm the 70's ...   :)
