That's funny. I traded in one on the new one which happened to be a left over from the previous year's new cars but didn't sell; blackwall tires, heater, no ac. Only amenity was automatic. The American, I had just bought from a friend and had just fixed it up, put new tires on it and things. I forget what happened but it was something major. I got $500 for it on trade in going against full sticker price on the new one. I had no wheels and the dealer was more than happy to come out to the house and drive me and the mrs. to their dealership and proceed to fleece me. Then sent the wrecker out to the house to pick up the old American after the deal was finalized.
They fixed whatever was wrong with it and in coming back for a warranty repair...a leak just above the heater they fixed by drilling a hole and installing a regular paper clip......what a kludge, I saw it in the used car lot for about twice what they gave me for it. Other thing on that engine was that I had to come back in for the valves to be adjusted, a warranty requirement.......what a joke....make a big mess on a new car. No more AMC for me after that......shucks, I lied....just remembered, I bought a red 4 door, loaded, 1989 Jeep Cherokee for my wife for valentines day. It was one of the AMC unibodies with no undercarriage like Jeeps used to have. Little 4 liter I6 which was a good engine. Got good service out of that.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
