I was out running an errand yesterday, and I hadn't seen an Aztec in some time, and
I was startled to see a bright, yellow, new looking one on the road. Back in the day
when I was helping an old girlfriend shop for a car, and dealers were trying to stick
her with a Chevette, we looked at the AMC Spirit, too, and it was the much better deal. She bought a six cylinder Camaro (the reason she needed a car was that her
Gremlin died, so she was done with AMC) Later when the first gear retainer went out of my '77 Olds and there was nothing, I bought a new Spirit, which had a hatchback,
a four cylinder, AND a twenty-one gallon gas tank. It was also cheaper than a Camaro, from a company that I'd had recent lemon experience from. By nailing it back together several times I managed to make it roll into six digits. I still miss the gas tank.
