I wonder if the seller of this 1973 AMC Matador cop car chose that photo location on purpose? Was he just looking for an appropriately gritty background in an attempt to emulate Los Angeles? Is he making commentary on AMC’s traditional underdog status and correlating that to an inability to keep the peace? Is he trying to juxtapose a symbol of law and order against a symbol of lawlessness in a statement on the futility to suppress human design? From the seller’s description:
Finding a complete AMC Matador is a rarity. Finding a real “Z code” 401 police package 4-door is something special. Finding one that is an actual LAPD fleet vehicle… now that’s the needle in the haystack! Authentic LAPD Matador “Enforcer;” shop #83986. Legendary 401 coupled to a 727 automatic. PS, PFDB, HD suspension. Original equipment included: T-2 can lights; 5-channel Motorola Motrac 70 with SIMUL feature; Federal siren with “Alert” feature; correct LAPD “Hot Sheet Desk” with Roster gooseneck light. May be the last LAPD Matador in existance. Clean and straight; just needs a little TLC.
