I like em all! Nice work. As an aside, there's a dark green 1:1 Matador of this same body style up the street from me...I always enjoy seeing it when I pass by. I keep thinking it would look great painted orange with a black out hood! LOL.

Thanks Sylvain. I appreciate you finding the Matador for me. If I had a rear bumper for your Vette, I would do it for free, but I don't have one.

It's nice to see that you got a good response to your ad. You went from 0-3 in no time. Im pleased to see that the Matador went to a good home.
Your street Matador is sharp!
I gave out some wrong info on the #12 car. After checking a NASCAR history book, I was reminded that Bobby Allison did drive a Matador for Roger Penske but it was the #16. Later he drove his own Matador #12 with the same paint scheme. He won races in both cars. Thought you might enjoy that bit of trivia.

Years ago(days of my youth) there was a Bobby Allison car model kit out of the red/white/blue Matador in #12 I think? Not sure if they have repopped this model kit again or not? My cousin had it when we were kids and I remember him building it. I always loved the paint scheme just like I love the red/white/blue paint schemes on the Trans Am Javelins also!!!!!
Your Matadors look very nice Jeff! A very nice collection you have started there indeed!!!!!
:D :D :D :D

I've always liked AMC, especially the Matador. I had to go and find my Dave Marcis photo, from the '73 Daytona 500. I took this pic with an "Instamatic" camera. The kind with the 126 cartridge....Point, shoot, then drop it off at Fotomat.

Nice picture Larry!
Very cool car!
We had a photomat booth at the corner of our street. Pretty cool concept in their day. Not sure where all those little buildings ever ended up?
