Yes, I worked on the Renault Alliance program for a while back then. Doing surface development on the upper half of the skin. I think the" Le Car" did that company in. Piece of junk.  I did some Instrument Panel design for AMC before the alliance with Renault took place. AMC was pretty marginal by 1977. Bad shape. No one wanted to work there. Bad neighborhood. Three blocks from where I grew up.

P.S. I didn't use the Roman characters 'cuz they would have been "X" rated! :laugh:
