    AMC in the movies

    I know they guys over at IFSJA all know about every movie that has had a FSJ in it. So I was wondering, are there any movies with AMC's in them. More specificaly javelins. I dont mean ones where you "can just see part of the front fender for a split seconed" ....lol

    James Bond-Man with the golden gun has a hornet that does a flip/jump,a flying matador coupe and many matador cop cars.the jump was performed at fairs and such by a team with a javelin in the 70's. it does a roll durring the jump and lands flat. pretty cool

    Old circa 1969-70 TV show called "The Imortal" had a AMX in the intro. It was suposed to be a race car but the hood up view showed a good view of a AC pump.

    I think the intro of "Streets of San Francisco" had a brief glimpse of an AMX in city traffic. Blink and you missed it.

    AMCs on TV

    There was a traveling stunt show in the 70s that used Javelins & they did the "Astro-Spiral", I think they called it.

    arcticboy has a web page devoted to it:

    Here's a Windows Media Video (*.wmv) of it:

    Here's a wmv of the Bond stunts:

    CHIPS has a '71 Javelin riding behind Ponch & Jon in the intro.

    Don't forget the Bonanza SS/AMX in an episode of CHIPS, and there is a quick glimpse of a 68 or 69 AMX in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.

    I'd thought I had seen all the CHiPS episodes way back when. Now I'll have to spend the next decade or so watching old reruns and hope I see that one. Thanx

    "Terminator"

    They got away in a Gremlin ran it out of gas and pushed it off the road and down a hill

    After being ran over by the fuel truck, the Terminator takes control of the semi and runs over another Gremlin chasing them down tring to run Sara over.

    That last mentioned sceen, why couldn't they have used a Pinto intsead? It would have at least given the movie another explosion! But instead they wasted a perfectly good Gremlin
