1969 AMC AMX 390 V8 4 Speed Manual Great Restoration

1969 AMC AMX 390 V8 Description

It is no secret that AMC always marched to a different drummer when it came to styling and innovation. Unfortunately that drummer's tune wasn't what the majority of the buying public wanted to dance to. So a lot of unique and ingenious ideas and engineering didn't make it into enough garages to keep the company afloat too bad.
One of those ideas was the AMX of the late 60's and 70. As performance oriented two seater there really wasn't the historical provenance to compete with the Corvette and the styling was just a bit too radical for mainstream America.
With that here is an outstanding example of AMC performance and style with some great options colors and detail. This one is a two owner car that restored about 10 years ago and still looks very good today. The engine is a 390 replacement for the original 290 V8 that is channeled through a smooth shifting 4 speed tranny. There is power steering and brakes that make it fun and easy to drive.
If you're looking for something different to use on cruise night or still remember Mark Donohue and the Red White and Blue jackets of AMC Racing you gotta' own this car.
