Hello, AMC Nuts.
Someone showed me this discussin so I thought I would enter just to give you the straight scoop. I used to live near this place, Collier's dealership. He does have a ton of AMC cars all over the place, but many are not in as bad a condition as you may think. Interiors would need a lot of work, but many of them have decent bodies. Pikeville is pretty far from the coast and does not affected by the salt,
Bobby Collier also has, or did have, the original AMX owned by Barry Goldwater in great shape, He has a lot of Javelins and AMX's, but many are standing outside, although he does have some inside.
I used to visit with him often and just BS about cars in general. Then for some reason, he got reclusive and started locking the outside gate. Presumably the only way to get in was to call in advance, but he never answered the phone. I know he was there because I could see the bay doors open from outside the fence.
I know he got really ticked off when Piggly Wiggly built a new grocery store across the street, and made him put up a fence that you could not see the cars. The grocery people thought it was a junk yard, and maybe it was , and maybe it wasn't, when you considered what he had inside.
Anybody got any questions, post them here or contact me at
