The American Motors AMX, or AMC AMX, was a short-lived two-seat muscle car produced by American Motors. It was aimed at being a Corvette competitor, offering performance and value to younger buyers. However, the AMX didn't sell well and was merged with the larger Javelin. That means finding an AMX can be a bit challenging since less than 20,000 were made. Thankfully, we've got a first-year 1968 American Motors AMX up for sale right now with a mere 35,000 miles on the odometer. What's even more pleasant is that we're told that the engine is a numbers-matching unit.
Sporting a very appropriate red paint job for a short and squat muscle car, this 1968 American Motors AMX appears in pristine order for its age. The car cuts a lithe stance and sports twin white stripes in an over-the-top style. It's also got a lovely set of alloy wheels wrapped in meaty Firestone tires. Step aboard, and you'll enter a black interior with two sports bucket seats. Highlights include a wood-rimmed steering wheel, a full gauge pack, and a Weather Eye ventilation system, the controls of which live to the left-hand side of the steering column. Meanwhile, the center console includes an American Motors-branded push-button AM radio, as well as a cigarette lighter plus a marked ash receiver. Yes, smoking in cars was mainstream in those days. There's also a floor-mounted shifter for the automatic gearbox, in true muscle car style. You can imagine yourself lined up at a stoplight, waiting for it to turn green. Pull the shifter into Drive, stomp on the gas, and watch the tachometer shoot up as the car rockets down the road. Alternatively, you can change gears yourself, as this is a Shift Command unit with automatic and manual shifting options.
This 1968 American Motors AMX comes with a larger (6.6L) V8 under the hood. This car also features the three-speed Shift Command automatic transmission, which includes manual shifting capabilities. Drive goes to the rear wheels in true muscle car fashion. Meanwhile, you've also got front and rear coil spring suspension for better handling.
The ‘60s and ‘70s were great times for muscle car enthusiasts. They provided a time of excess that hasn’t been seen since, with healthy competition among manufacturers, meaning that consumers got some of the most interesting cars around. The 1969 AMC AMX Coupe was no different, featuring a range of engines that, at the top end, included a rather tasty 390ci V8. Our featured 1969 AMC AMX Coupe is exactly that, with a completely overhauled 390 ci / 6.4-liter V8 engine and a range of upgrades designed to make this classic muscle car even more potent.

One of the pioneers of American muscle cars was American Motors Corporation, or AMC, widely known. AMC was founded in 1954 and has sadly become discontinued in 1988. While AMC is no more, their legacy still stands with the vehicles they built. A direct competition to the Chevrolet Corvette was the two-seater GT-style muscle car called the AMX. The AMX was produced from 1968 till 1970, making it quite rare. Up for grabs is a 1968 AMC AMX with the Go Package and just 40,000 miles on the clock. This car is available to be seen in the Flickertail State, North Dakota.
Now here’s an American classic that’s a little different from the herd! The Rambler American by American Motors Corporation, or AMC to most of us. Produced between 1958 and 1969, the Rambler American is a compact car that builds on the Nash Rambler that preceded it. The Rambler American would go on to become a success not just in North America, but many other parts of the world as well. The car was assembled in Wisconsin, as well as Brampton for the Continent, but overseas operations included Iran, Mexico, South Africa and Australia. If you’d like to become a custodian of a Rambler American, here’s one from Abilene, Texas. This 1958 Rambler American has traveled around 68,557 miles and features a repaint in blue, as well as re-upholstered bench seating.
Ford’s Torino is a midsize car that was sold between 1968 and 1976. It also dabbled in the muscle car segment, with a prime example being this first-generation 1969 Ford Torino Cobra Jet. For buyers who wanted something tamer, there was a host of straight six or V8 powerplants, but the ultimate was the massive 428ci Cobra Jet V8. That’s what this Thousand Palms-based car offers, along with a Marti Report and just 21,000 miles on the clock. In fact, 1969 Cobras like this one are quite desirable due to their rarity since many Torino’s didn’t survive due to a variety of reasons. Perhaps they weren’t quite seen as preservation candidates way back then. Now, a car like this one isn’t a common occurrence, so if you wish to own this Cobra, contact us right now.
Chevy’s second-generation or C2 Corvette has got to be the one with the shortest production run! It was made between 1963 and 1967, and just under 118,000 units were produced during this time. However, the C2 brought us many Corvette features such as pop-up headlamps, only V8s under the hood, and the Sting Ray badge. That’s why getting your hands on a C2 is a smart idea, albeit not one of the easiest. Happily, we have this 1964 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Convertible for sale from Newtown, Pennsylvania. The car has just 5,764 miles on it and looks fabulous!
Falcon is one of Ford’s best-known nameplates, because its been used for cars in North America, Australia and Argentina. Today’s 1964 Ford Falcon Sprint Convertible comes from the North American line-up and is a second-generation example. With a healthy 119,104 miles on the clock, this fine Ford hails from Chula Vista, California and is a nice, sunny drop-top too. It’s got a 289 paired with a four-speeder, and some fetching aftermarket wheels as well. And that’s before we get to its rather nautical color! In short, this is the perfect first classic for someone looking to try out the American cars of the Sixties, but if you need more convincing before calling us, read on.
