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.
The exterior of this 1969 AMC AMX Coupe has been newly repainted in the car’s original Pompeii Yellow, a distinctive shade that perfectly complements this era of muscle car design. But unlike other designs of the period, the AMC AMX Coupe is restrained in its styling. While it features bold lines and a distinctive fastback-like silhouette, there are no over-the-top flourishes, lending an almost sleeper-like vibe to the overall appearance. Look closely, though, and you'll see all-new chrome mag wheels wrapped in brand-new tires. The AMX Coupe, though, was a dedicated two-seater, giving the car a smaller and more agile appearance. Inside our restored specimen, you’ll find a brown interior that is highlighted by a plaid pattern applied to the seats. The dashboard comprises of two large meter binnacles for the speedometer (which reads up to 140 mph) and tachometer, while engine temperature and fuel levels lie as sub-dials within the tach. To the left of the main dials, you’ll find a clock and controls for the wipers and lights. An American Motors-branded radio receiver is also present in the center of the console.
Under the hood of this 1969 AMC AMX Coupe is where the majority of the work has been carried out. The car features a 390ci V8 engine that the owner reports has been driven just 300 miles since it was rebuilt. The rebuild included an overbore of 0.030, with new DSS Racing forged pistons installed. Other work that was carried out includes new cam bearings, a new competition cam, and new Harland Sharp rocker arms. That’s not all, as you’ll also find a new Schaefer roller lifter and Cloyes timing gear & chain. As you’d expect during an all-out rebuild of this nature, all seals and gaskets have been replaced, along with new hoses. The engine is fed via a new Demon carburetor, while Patriot Headers provide improved airflow and Edelbrock cylinder heads add to the compression. Finally, a new MSD distributor and plug wires handle ignition. Power is delivered to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission, and you’ll also find new wheel cylinders for optimized and reliable braking performance.

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.
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.
There’s nothing quite like a classic Seventies BMW for some enthusiasts. After all, who wouldn’t want to see what the Ultimate Driving Machine creators were up to back then? Today’s specimen is this fine 1974 BMW 3.0 CS from Delray Beach, Florida. With just 27,088 miles on its odometer, this car features an M30 straight six driving its rear wheels via an automatic gearbox. So why not make this your next classic car – or your first classic car for that matter? Either way, it’s sure to make every drive a pleasant one.
The Cadillac de Ville series is a full-size luxury car from Cadillac, made between 1958 and 2005 across eight generations. The term de Ville means “of the town”, indicating that Cadillac intended the model to become the talk of the town, literally. Offered in sedan, coupe and convertible forms, early generations are renowned for their flamboyant styling. Take this second generation 1963 Cadillac Coupe de Ville as a prime example. With a 390 under the hood and a lovely Nevada Silver paint job, this machine awaits a new owner in Santa Rosa, California. Grab it while you can because cars like this don’t stay on the market for long.
The prancing horse, or better yet known as Ferrari, has long been the purveyor of a car ownership experience that's unlike any out there. From its bedroom wall poster to clocking in rapid lap times worldwide, the Italian manufacturer is a true legend in the automotive world. While taking ownership of a Ferrari is a milestone in anyone's life, it does come with a tax - the actual cost of owning one and allowing it to clock in the miles and provide you with a good time on every drive out. Breaking through the matrix that is Ferrari ownership is otherworldly, but worry not: there is always a solution. Present today is this 1986 Ferrari Mondial Quattrovalvole. With a reported 24,000 miles on its clock, this is the answer to all your prancing horse problems and has always been labeled as a "usable" Ferrari.
