So Stoned
awesome, keep it going.
Im not a big fan of the director?(cant remember his position) of production placed for ford. pretty much who makes the last call i suppose. hes more of a business man, than a car guy. although i realize business side is important but the designers of the 2005+ mustangs had to fight tooth and nail with him to keep all their ideas and not cut back on the quality to make it cheaper. they emphasized fords stern belief on not sacraficing quality for the extra dollar. I am a fan of AMC's(american motors) engineering style. they pretty much were an economy only company with high efficient, light weight cars for good gas mileage. during the muscle car era. they developed some very well engineered machines. AMX and Javelin. Although not real known. javelin won multiple championship in a row. yet i still see only Pacer and Gremlins being acknowledged, mainly because GM and chrysler loved the notion of them being the "clown" of cars. AMC made very strong engines that were with forged internals and are virtually as strong as an engine can be made. and had used parts from ford and design cues from chevrolet. mainly due to mark donohue who was a driver that switched from chevy to amc and used pretty much made a mutt of all great designed parts. AMC also developed Jeep and Hummer. Which GM takes most of the credit for the hummer of course. all in all chrysler bought out amc. but i still got my 71 javelin. best year ever
