1971 AMC Hornet review from North America
"A very basic car for a very basic price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
There was only one problem that I had with my American Motors Corporation Hornet, and that was the window wiper part that I have no clue about but... it does not affect th ability to wipe windows.
General comments?
My Hornet has a very unique design that I find comforting, and a very explicit physical look to it.
The body of the car is in excellent condition, granted that there is a very little rust above the left and right tire covers, barely noticeable.
The car runs perfectly with no problems and has no engine or transmission problems. It has a fair acceleration and the play is always right on. It does however eat up gas a little more than I would rather, but... that is what gives it a better acceleration.
