1969 AMC AMX - $37,000 - Mission, KS - The AMX was American Motors entrance into the Muscle Car market in 1968, and was only built during the '68-70 model years. Boasting a shorter wheelbase than Corvette, it was the only 2 seat, metal bodied, sports car built in the U.S. since the '55-'57 T-Bird. This car was not only "go straight ahead" fast like other muscle cars, but it did extremely well on a road circuit, thus appealing to the sports car enthusiast as well. This 1969 version of the AMX is powered by its original 390 cubic inch 315 horsepower engine, and Borg Warner 4 speed transmission with a Limited Slip PosiTrac rear end (3:55 gears). This car is equipped with the "Go Package" which consists of E-70 red line tires on six inch rims, handling package, power disc brakes, TwinGrip differential, and identifying over the top stripes. Options on this AMX also include power steering, 8 thousand RPM tach, and AM 8 track radio. The engine has had the benefit of recent work including new timing chain, oil pump kit, water pump, complete tune up with wires, new starter, all belts and a new radiator. Additional work has includes a new clutch, pressure plate, throw out bearing and new U joints in the drive shaft. The limited slip PosiTrac rear end has been completely rebuilt,and brake lines, rear wheel cylinders, brake shoes, rear shocks, and leaf springs have been have all been replaced. The list of new and rebuilt items goes on and on...check out the picture of the list of recent work completed in the photo array. Here is chance to own a rare American Motors muscle car (8300 produed in '69 and 19,000 from '68 to '70) that has had a rotisserie restoration...nothing for you to do but enjoy. The Best Restored AMX on the Planet.

Anyone that installed an 8,000 rpm tach in this must've had a pretty positive attitude. :D
 
It might be the best restored AMX, but it's certainly the worst photographed. Shame about the ghastly interior.

I love the widely-accepted fallacy that the AMX was a "sports car" because it was a short-wheelbase two-seater. So is an '83 Ford EXP. Big whoop. It's worth mentioning that when Mark Donahue was winning in Trans-Am with an AMC, he did it with the better-handling, long-wheelbase Javelin. Of course, the year he dominated ('71) AMC was the only factory entry left. :D
