·Concord, perhaps? You may love the fact a friend of mine (like me, a former Calgarian living on the West Coast) has a collection of AMC vehicles from the 1970's (no Pacers, thankfully). In fact, he raced a customized Gremlin at Mission Raceway for years much to the astonshment, and often dismay, of drivers and fans assuming he'd get blown away. Arguably the ugliest beast among the Mustangs, Chevelles and Nova's, by all accounts the Gremlin was damn fast.
He has retired from a successful career in banking and a favourite story is his former CEO at HSBC 'suggesting' he park a nicer vehicle than his beloved 1979 Wagoneer in the company parkade. The CEO may have hoped for a Merc, Bimmer or Bentley - all of which my friend could afford with pin money - yet he showed up with a shiny new Dodge 300 kitted out like a gangster's jalopy. Brand loyal to the end.
Concord is correct. AMC Concord, 1978, first year. Basically a re-skinned Hornet which had been around for about 8 years. This one is a scarce one, a Sport Liftback (fastback). Less that 1% of Concord production that year was this model. I have only ever seen one other, and I have seen 2 of the 1979 version. U- - y! Had it since new. Spent a bundle on it over 25 years. Love it.

·A red Ford Fiesta that the family have nicknamed 'Red One' after the leader of the Red Arrows display team. Aside from that, various different bicycles, a DJI Phantom drone, and a hard bargain.
