      Well it is still in the low 70's here in Sac, though I do like the snow.

Those who enjoy snow are those who never get it.

We just got power back up and running today! So many trees and power lines down. I feel bad for all the kids who wanted to go trick or treating and obviously couldn't.

I just moved to Anchorage, Alaska and we got our first snow Saturday night.  I had to leave my square body in CA but here is my daily driver 4x4... bonus points if you can ID it :)

Eagle.
Real trucks are built, not bought Build thread

Give me a long enough lever and a place to stand, and I shall move the earth or break this bolt...Whatever, just hold my beer!

Nicely done!!! usually I get a response like "a messed up Jeep" or "I don't know what it is but it's ugly,"  I'm glad you know the classics

Never forget the AMC Eagle....my parents had one when I was younger.

I believe it was a 1985 and they had it til around 1999 or so.  Interesting cars I think.

The first dealership I worked at was Chevrolet, Jeep, Eagle, AMC, Renault! lol What a mix! The Eagle & Renault was dropped eventually but not quick enough!

It's a very interesting car.  I have spent so much time and effort on mine it is kind of crazy to think about.  It is lifted 3" it has a Jeep 4.0L engine which they never came with Factory.  It has the matching Jeep AX-15 Manual trans and a NP242 case.  I have 4hi and 4 lo which the Eagles never had.  I have no idea why I like them so much but i do.  I would love to start an AMC Eagle Shop because I think I have every nut and bolt memorized on the darn thing.  The market segment is just a little narrow.

I brought my grandma's 79 AMC Concord home when she no longer desired to drive.  It had only 17K on it.  I had it for a while and did a couple of cruises in it but just didn't have that sentimental value so I sold it to an AMC nut and he sold it to some museum out in Colorado.  I always thought the 4x4 version was neat.
