To: HANG THE EXPENSE

1968 AMC AMX.
V-8 390 4-speed (Go-Package)
RWD, manual 4-speed gearbox
389.6 cui, 325 hp / 425 lb-ft
Acceleration: 0- 60 mph 6.2 s; 1/4 mile drag time 13.6 s
Top Speed: I took my foot off the gas pedal at 140.
The *ONLY* American Made Car to beat the Chevrolet Corvette *out of the factory.* In 1969, Chevrolet upped the HP on the Corvette to beat the AMX.

With so much torque all available at the low end, it'd push you back in your seat hard. Still miss mine, it was *my* Super Car.

Looks a heck lot like a Australian Chevlle.

The grill and head lights look like a Chevlle.
