It wasn't just any ol' beater sedan, but a '73 Gucci Sportabout, one of 52 low-mileage survivors from a renowned collection offered at auction last Friday.

The interior was flawless, befitting the Gucci grocery-getter's 30K miles on the clock.

With so many AMC's going at once, some hoped the cars would go on the low side...boy, were we wrong. Both sides of the Gucci were littered with door dings, but that didn't stop one intrepid Swiss buyer from ponying up 6,600 simoleans for the winning bid.

Outside of an AMC National, I hadn't seen that many Gremlins, Hornets, Matadors, etc., since my high school years in Kenosha. It was <span style="font-weight: bold">great</span> for the seller, and good for the hobby...
