On the site? Bought AMXAutoX’s (Tom) 69 AMX. Just curious.

I wondered who bought that car! I always thought it was cool!

I was actually trying to broker a sale between my buddy and Tom but my buddy flaked out. Gave it some thought and took the plunge.

'70 AMX, 390, auto, air, Sonic Silver with Shadow Mask
'70 RWB Machine, 4-spd
'69 SC/Rambler, 'B'-scheme

All projects.

I have always wanted a RWB Rebel Machine, S/C Rambler in an a or B scheme, AMX, Marlin or even a Gremlin X. I have always liked the under dog and believe America should have done whatever it took to keep American Motors alive to this day since this is America.

I'm building a '70 Javelin for autocross racing (amateur). Mopar B-body 8 3/4 rear end, Viking coil over front suspension , AMC 360.


I haven't seen Tom post in many years. Is he still fishing all the time?

I saw this old commercial 3 years ago. It's awesome! This would be a brand new at the time car heavily modified and cool!

I remember that ad.

Had my newly completed project at the Martin Museum for a few minutes then Mixteca

The thing about AMC is that they took the best of Ford, GM and Mopar and made a pretty good product. AMX followed the Vette, Madador the 70 RR/GTX, and the Marlin the 1st generation Charger. From the looks of things there may of been a little industrial spying going on.

Nice car. Is it black, can’t tell. I really liked that Hunter Green AMX

Black

Had one almost identical to your AMX. My wife was pissed when I sold it, the only car that has ever happened about! Black with black bucket interior, 4-speed but the engine was replaced with a 401 out of a cop car. Had the side pipes, I think they called them "trendsetters"?

This one is a 390 4 speed go pack with A/C

I got one , all there but a big project.

Well....I don't know that they took the 'best' of anything. Most of their vehicles were somewhat mish-mashed things that really were nothing special. I still remember going with my Dad to get rid of his big-block Newport during the gas crunch. He wanted to get something more efficient. Ended up with a Gremlin X brand new. He kept it about 6 months (tops). Thing was pathetic on fuel and got worse gas mileage than his old Newport.

Didn’t see it, I must of already left

I could have picked up a '68 AMX 390 4 speed car a dozen or so years ago for not a lot of money. Rust free Arizona car. I let it slip away. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.

Always have loved the SC Rambler. Heck back when I started getting into Mopars 20 years ago(yep I was a Pontiac man) I seriously considered an A scheme car. They were relatively cheap still with a decent one going for about 6k. Nah, like trans ams, they will never rise in price. I'll get one later. Besides, being honest, I never had the money to buy a nice car. see all these folks talking about buying cheap cars back in the 80's. Yeah, I remember a nice 68RR in Benton Center NY in 84 that sat there for more than a year for sale. Price? 4500. Didn't have that either.
