AMC Pacer

This car looks like a time machine to me.
AMC Pacer, 1975.

She looks like Holli Would from the movie Cool World.

+ 1, great minds think alike?

+2 some kinds of minds think alike! I always knew those things came out of an a-hole of something, but I never knew it was a giant woman. I guess they were better cars than I thought. I just hope it doesn't stain her pretty white dress, though.

A totally CRAP car that fell apart 2 days after the warranty expired. Perhaps the worst car ever created. I bet that it is nearly impossible to locate a Pacer today (unless it had never been driven). btw, what's with the rear end?

So, he was an ass man? ;)

Maybe he wasn't getting much, like those old-time explorers who saw boobs in every mountain and named many of them accordingly?

OTOH, my cousins, as children, pointed out, much more accurately IMO, that it looked exactly like the head of a giant hippo...We had one of these passed around to various owners within the extended family for a number of years. From the other comments, I guess the fact that it did survive until the mid-late 80s at least was a testament to the sheer amount of redneck mechanic skills in our family.

My best friend in high school had a yellow pacer with woodgrain paneling as her first car. It had three forward gears. THREE! The dashboard had plenty of flat space on top for teen witch rituals and the like. Maybe it was the candles that attracted the cops.

It is a time machine. It transports you to The Dork Ages.

Talk about a scenic overlook. lol You'd think that the 50 foot woman would be more ticked off that people are driving over her white dress.

REALLY goofy looking car, but it had a huge amount of room in the front passenger seat. Very comfortable.

I'd drive one now, not just for the kitsch factor, either.

What is she doing? farting on the car?
