The SC360 was a "AMC Roadrunner" meant to be a cheap ($2,800) performance car to get around high insurance premiums. Mine was a 285 Hp 360 4bbl Go-pack (Posi, functional hood scoop), 4 speed. Hot rod tested the SC360, it ran mids 14's 100% stock with the auto trans, so the insurance companies slapped it with a high performance car surcharge, so AMC's plan failed, and they sold less than 700 of them.

I've had a '68, '2 '69's and a '70 AMX, but sold them when people were offering 2X-3X what we had in them.

We traded my SC360 + $6500 for this '68 390/Auto in 1986:

We bought this '69 Hurst SS/AMX #23 from Hemmings in the early 1990's:
