This 1968 AMC AMX is a
fabulous opportunity to own a stunning example of one of America's rarest
performance cars. Sold new at C.A. Cox Rambler in Wollaston, Massachusetts,
it's nicely equipped with the 390/315 HP V-8 engine fed by a 4-barrel
carburetor and backed by a 4-speed manual transmission with a Twin Grip rear
end packed with 3.15:1 gears. Power steering and power brakes make the car
infinitely easier to handle, and the Go Pack brings many more performance and
drivability options to the table. Presented in rare dark green with white
racing stripes and a tan interior, it could be suggested that whoever ordered
this car new had a penchant for British sports cars. Factory Frigette air
conditioning, styled road wheels, the dealer promotional brochure and the
Options and Accessories booklet all accompany this fabulous sports-muscle
crossover. Well-known in the muscle- and sports-car worlds, AMC's goal of
combining the two worlds fell slightly short when the AMX emerged in 1968. A
fabulous car that set a number of speed records, impressing several well-known
racing drivers in the process, the AMX offered sports car buyers the opportunity
to own a two-seater sports car with gobs of useful torque, while giving
muscle-car enthusiasts the chance to own a big-cube car that could not only rip
the drag strip apart, but tame curvy roads as well. It was a remarkably unique
vehicle in the day, and it still is today. Growing in popularity as collectors
and enthusiasts seek something outside of the usual sports-car and muscle-car
board of fare, 390 4-speed AMX’s have become more desirable in recent years.
AMX has long been in the shadows of more popular, mainstream muscle cars that
benefited from larger marketing budgets and campaigns back in the day, but
those who knew AMC quality and AMX performance knew well what they had. There's
a reason AMX enthusiasts are so devout—driving one will prove the point.
