1969 AMC S/S AMX

The latest edition of Street Legal TV’s “Muscle Cars You Should Know” features the bright burning but short-lived AMC S/S AMX. How short-lived? How about only 52 cars ever built? Once built by AMC, the cars were shipped to Hurst and the engines to Crane to work their magic with 1/4 mile domination the goal. Read more info on this rare piece of AMC history at Street Legal TV.

1981 AMC Spirit AMX Pace Car

PPG sponsored a competition among five manufacturers to design a custom pace car for the 1981 IndyCar World Series. AMC took a Spirit AMX and built a completely new fiberglass body and added a turbocharged and fuel injected 258 ci inline six. The result is a one of one factory custom car!

1979 AMC Spirit AMX For Sale on Hemmings

Daniel Strohl at Hemmings spotted this awesome 1979 AMC Spirit AMX in their classifieds, which is said to be a rust free, two-owner car. The original 304 has been replaced with a fairly stout 360, so this thing is probably a hoot to drives, especially with the 4-speed. The $13,900 asking price seems pretty reasonable for such a solid and unique car–one of just 1,834 produced. More pics after the jump, and be sure to check out the ad at Hemmings!
