On December 3, 1979, the last “fresh, bold and functional-looking” Pacer rolls off the assembly line at the American Motors Corporation (AMC) factory in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
The AMC Pacer is a two-door compact car produced in the United States by American Motors Corporation from the 1975 to 1980 model years. The Pacer was the second American production car, after the Ford Pinto, to feature rack-and-pinion steering. The system was mounted low at the front of the crossmember. The body was designed with the aim that structural lines protected it from hit damage and AMC engineers claimed that they succeeded in more than 50% of the car surface.
The ‘jellybean’ styled Pacer was a reasonably popular economy car, though its Jetson-styled body attracted criticism from both the press and TV comedians, The Pacer gained attention as the mighty road mobile piloted by Garth in Wayne's World.
