When I was asked to undertake this project, I knew it would be no small feat. An AMC restoration book had never been produced, and even though I do this type of work every day, I don’t even pretend to know everything about the subject matter. For this reason, I immediately contacted some of the most respected members of the AMC community, people who have disassembled, documented, and restored some of the finest original AMC muscle cars in the world. These calls and messages led to the formation of a “secret” Facebook group dedicated to the project, where we could discuss topics in detail, compare findings, and generally form a consensus of what is most correct, despite the subtle variations that exist between cars assembled within the same year, or even the same month.
For their invaluable assistance and free sharing of restoration information, I would like to extend a special thanks to Tom Benvie, Brooke Pitt, Steve Parson, Ross Peterson, Joe Roberts, Kevin Shope, and Ian Webb. The combined knowledge that these gentlemen possess could easily fill ten books! So many additional people helped in other ways, often not even knowing that their answers to my random questions were actually for the book. Others offered their cars as subject matter for photos that were needed. My sincere thanks to all of you as well.
