Not an A12.

A couple quick telltales from that pic. The front hood pins are in the wrong spot and it has the wrong air cleaner.
 
Your car is my favorite, Jake. Very nice!
 
Love the AMC models best right after the 880
 
The plant in town was an amc plant, so there is huge numbers of amc models everywhere in Kenosha!
 
There was an AMC plant in Milwaukee on N. Richards Street. My Dad worked there for a while.

A man assembles a door for an American Motors car at AMC’s body plant on Richards St. in Milwaukee in 1981. The five-story factory, built just after World War I, eventually employed as many as 9,000 people before it was closed following Chrysler Corp.’s buyout of AMC in 1987.

This installation looks pretty outdated even by early eighties standards. No wonder as they were short on cash all the time. I always appreciated their design efforts and niche models built on a budget, at least to the early 70s thanks to Dick Teague's design ingenuity.

This is where the UAW made a huge error out of lack of vision.
They fought tooth and nail to protect every last manual labor job that was unionized instead of going out and unionizing the robot manufacturers.
