Your truck looks really good out at the show and yes, I remember the Marlin. Not many around.

Thanks Doug, I felt pretty good about what I had to show for my garage time. I didn't even realize AMC made it. I was thinking it was a Chrysler product. How cool would it look bagged on big rims? Who am I kidding, I think everything looks cool bagged on big rims.

I do remember seeing some Marlins: back in the day. AMC didn't start making power until they came out with Javlins and the AMX. Some of those were really quick.

Anyway, thanks for all your posts, helps me out a lot.

Thanks Jeff. I learned sooo much building the 48. I didn't have the confidence to fabricate stuff like I do now. Yes, I look forward to the Kalamazoo show.

This site is a great place to share info. It's great if you find my build helpful because so many people have been helpful to me over the years.
