If you happen to be itching for an AMC project vehicle or just want to own some Kenosha iron, get your bad self down to Fate, Texas, and try to scoop up one of the remaining pieces of the Ed Hooper collection. Ed liked to buy decent AMC examples when he could find them and bring them back to his place in Texas. It seems from there, nothing much happened with them.
What’s very interesting in the notes about Hooper’s buying habits is that he often bought stuff and let it sit at the seller’s home for months before taking it home to Texas. According to the website talking about the collection and the sale, Hooper may have bought, but not picked up, more than 100 cars, leaving them with the sellers. That’s speculation but amazing speculation indeed.
Since we already have our own forlorn AMC project at home, we’ll encourage others to pick up the phone, hit the road, or shoot an e-mail to find out what’s left for sale out of this pretty awesome collection of stuff.
We want a Rebel Machine!
Thanks to MSD’s Robert Martin for the tip on this crazy sale!
