Love the car.
There is a local to us who runs a Javelin in SS/J who has been a favorite of mine for years.
Well done.

Yes......I know this is an AMX.
I am drawn to " different " for some sad and expensive reason.

Now if MA MOPAR had bought AMC in 1968, and put a big block in it, think of the fun we could have had! That little AMX is a very short WB (97 inch) 3100 lb two seater, just the ticket

AMX with a gen 3 Hemi sounds like a fun idea

Was there and watched it. The finalists are both 'locals' for me. LOVED it.!!

AMC V8's are plenty stout in their own right, excellent head design.
