I'd like to see one of these... the hatchback wasn't out yet, so this would have looked a lot like an SC360,  with the stripe.  I wonder if there was a decal.  It doesn't seem to mention one in the letter.

Mike, this is a touch off topic, but do you have any contact info for Keleigh? I went to his wedding in Sept. 05' on Catalina and then left on a two year thing 5 days later. When I got home my wife told me he and his wife had moved from Van Nuys to Colorado. Even an email address would help. Thanks.

I'll look up the last e-mail I had from him and PM you with the address, Rus.

My dad purchased a leftover 75 Hornet hatchback in 76 from Poirier AMC in Fall River, MA & it had (allegedly) some type of regional package..it was a black Hornet X, but also had the D/L package (NOT available on a 75 hatchback according to the 75 brochure) and a 1/2 vinyl roof.  304 auto on floor.According to the salesman, only certain dealers that had reached a sales goal recieved one of these "special editions"  I've never seen another one, & talked to a fellow member of our local AMC club who worked for the Boston Zone, & he remembered some type of package, but couldn't recall the details of it....any ideas?

T5, any pics of your dad's Hornet? I'd like to see how that half vinyl top was done, at first I thought maybe with a targa band but those didn't come out until 1977. A Hornet X with D/L package, that is strange. I had a black '75 Hornet X myself around 1982 but nothing unusual on that one (except for the Pepe LePew I painted on the hatch since everyone called it the skunk).
