AMC Matador Barcelona




Holy crap batman! Take a gander at this rolling pile of dog doo doo. This car should have been renamed the barfelona. I hope these things came with a king size barf bag as standard equipment for anyone who had to look at this rolling work of art. With the slick styling it is hard to tell which end is the front and which is the back. Who was the designer of this thing? There is just so much wrong with this design, where does one start. What is it about those bug eye headlamps. It looks like the car is on qualudes, or else someone is standing on its gonads. The vinyl top is another styling gem. Now check out the interior. Wow, is that fabric from a barcalounger recliner? It will be hard to top this one!

I can't believe that fabric was original to the car! Are you sure Lazyboy wasn't consulted?

You are right, it might have been designed by LazyBoy! It's a looker whoever stitched it up. What were people thinking in the '70's? Were the designers on drugs or what?

That car is way better than the computerized, governmentalized throw away cookie cutter cars they build now ..
