The Hornet wagon is called the Hornet Sportabout

This particular one is a 1975, 76, or 77 by the looks of the grille.

I'm impressed they went so far as to use a car so close to the 85 AMC Eagle Jennifer's dad drives in part one. The Hornet Sportabout is nearly identical save for the front facia and rear.

Well, maybe Biff somehow affected which car Mr. Parker bought.

None of that matters anyway. Jennifer and family don't live here in 1985A. So the presence of an AMC in this scene is merely coincidental to the Eagle from Part I.

I'm gonna assume the similarity is intentional
The movie has alot of foreshadowing of something being off, this is just one of the more subtle hints :)

Unless it's been knocked off, this car does not have the rubber front bumper edging that was added in 1976.
Limits it to 1975.
