The AMC Hornet is a compact automobile manufactured and marketed by American Motors Corporation (AMC) and made from 1970 through 1977—in two- and four-door sedan, station wagon, and hatchback coupe configurations. The Hornet replaced the compact Rambler American line, marking the end of the Rambler marque in the American and Canadian markets.

Matador came in a 4 door sedan (shown), a 2 door coupe and a station wagon. This model was actually AMC’s new NASCAR race car, so this “X” package coupe was developed. Base Price $3,699. (X trim package) This was a good selling model for AMC as it was the only compact wagon available.
The new Matador was available in four-door sedan, two-door hardtop (no B pillar), and four-door station wagon body styles. The 1971 sedan and hardtop models retained the same rear bumper, trunk lid chrome strip, and rear-corner chrome garnishes as the 1970 Rebel.
