AMC marked the 25th anniversary of the Nash-Hudson merger with “Silver Anniversary” editions of the AMC Concord and Jeep CJ in two-tone silver (Jeeps then accounted for around 50% of the company’s sales and most of its profits); and introduced “LeCar”, a U.S. version of the small, fuel-efficient Renault 5, in dealer showrooms.
