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.
American Motors Corporation, or AMC is another one of those great automotive names that has fallen by the wayside. Our country’s great automotive history is littered with such names that, sadly, couldn’t cut it due to market dynamics. But rest assured that those names gave us some great hits during their heyday. Cue the AMC Pacer as a prime example. Made between 1975 and 1979, the Pacer was a compact economy car that was created in response to the Malaise Era of the Seventies. In its short four-year run, over 280,000 examples were made, highlighting its fame. If you’ve always wanted a Pacer for its quirky styling, choose this 1976 AMC Pacer that’s got just 4,000 miles on the clock after a full restoration.
Triumph was a well-known British sports car maker for decades. The cars were made by the Standard Motor Company of Coventry, and they offered enthusiastic buyers the typical British roadster experience of the wind in your hair and a pert little sports car to hustle around country roads. Naturally, Americans would get to experience these cars too, as evidenced by this 1962 Triumph TR3A that’s for sale right now. The car reportedly underwent a frame-off restoration in 2015, making it nice and fresh for its new owner to enjoy.
It is often said that life was better in the ʼ80s. Music, clothes, and of course, cars. This 1989 Mercedes 560SL is a car that could take you through time. Kept in pristine condition, this car is ready to stretch its legs having covered a reported 53,208 miles in its 36-year life. With the name having been around for 70 years, it's safe to assume that Mercedes knows what they’re doing.
As the latest vehicles give you the utmost convenience and performance that you can imagine, classic cars continue to fill our hearts with nostalgia and a driving experience to remember. This 1965 Buick Special is one such example that takes you back to the ʼ60s when roads were filled with art on wheels. When it comes to vintage cars like this, it is difficult to find an example that is untouched. One of the main highlights of this Buick is that according to its current owner, it is all original. With memories worth 105,000 miles, this classic is now residing in Albany, New York. There is no doubt that this beauty will be a perfect Sunday cruiser and an attention grabber at classic car events.
