The variety in the few AMX3 concept cars made, 10 total I've read, but interestingly not alike in tail lights, and rear deck

Above image 2007 Meadow Brook Concours Above images 2008 Goodwood Festival of Speed by Ilya Holt and from 2007 Meadow Brook Concours Above 4 images were taken in 2004, at the Bizzarini Expo in Brussels by Dirk de Jager and all the above photos are from http://www.supercars.net/cars/2982.html Notice the above museum car has a side marker light behind the rear wheel that only one of of the following do. Lower door racing stripe and AMX 3 callout looks really good, and the rear deck styled partition with air foil over the tailights Really don't like the above rims. images from my many posts on the AMX 3... I hope you take a moment to see the differences in these different models, the bottom one having the coolest looking wheels, but I bet it's...

I'm impressed and amazed by the obscurity of 1967 fashion photoshoot at the Irwindale Raceway, with drag racer Danny Ongais, driver for MT & Leong

The limousine interior was left pretty much unchanged, but the front-end sheet metal around the hood area was rounded to give the appearance of being...

Jack Benny and Pres. Harry Truman in the photo, Jack Benny, Mel Blanc and Johnny Carson talking about the Maxwell

Drving a 1908 Maxwell, because as a long running joke Jack Benny was playing a miserly guy who wouldn't waste a cent on anything better than a 1923 Maxwell.Jack Benny appears onscreen driving a Maxwell in the film It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad WorldAn antique 1923 Maxwell automobile owned by Jack Benny, the "Cheapest Man in the World" was used as a running gag on both radio (first appeared in 1937) and later on his TV comedy series THE JACK BENNY SHOW/CBS/1950-64.
