Not Everything Was Picked Over In 2017 - This 1976 AMC Matador Has 32K Original Miles

[Trulyvintage]

So I am waiting to meet the new owner of this Oregon Survivor & I start doing some research ….

 

Zane Leek’s 150 Car Collection & A Record Buy From American Pickers In Oregon.

 

I met Zack & his mom Linda a couple 

days ago in Salem, Oregon to load up 

this 1976 AMC Matador Brougham Survivor 

 

 

It was one of over 150 titled vehicles

that his Dad had titled when he passed .away in 2012.

I've been to Zane's place. 

 

He has a great collection of 'big-rig' Studebaker trucks as well as the orphans mentioned in the link including a Crosley or two.

Zane is slowly selling off the vehicles.

I guess it is hard still to see your Dad’s 

stuff go.

Polycast Wheels are on this Matador.

 

What Are Polycast Wheels ?

Interesting car. The early Trans Ams wheels were poly cast as well (called the honey comb wheels). 

I guess the guy selling didnt really care that much but whats with the dust? I have seen so many 'original cars' that are still covered with dirt and dust assuming its supposed to add to the appeal of a 'survivor'. I guess its just a pet peeve of mine but Please wash the car. Dirt adds nothing to the value.

This car was one of five or six sold over the last several years to the gentleman U hauled it for - dust is apparently not an issue with him.
