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.

By its third generation, the Chevrolet Corvette was already a well-known icon within the landscape of American motoring. The C3, introduced in 1968, retained its sleek and muscular appearance, adding a few more curves to the design, with a bit of European flair injected into its philosophy. It was still distantly Corvette. The C3 was also the first model to introduce a Targa top to its coupe models, a feature that would remain a popular element that reappeared over the ensuing generations. The C3 was also the first Corvette to serve as the pace car for the Indianapolis 500—the first in a long tradition of Corvette pace cars that would appear for the iconic race. Our featured car is a 1975 Chevrolet Corvette with the 350ci V8 engine mated to an automatic transmission, and features a few choice performance upgrades.
