Price: US $15,000.00
1968 American Motors Corporation AMX, 390, auto, go pack, PDB, PS, A/C, Tilt wheel, AM/FM, and twin grip rear end.
I bought this unmolested/ unmodified car from the original owner in 1988 who lived in Van Nuys, CA and he bought the car new in Ontario/ Riverside CA. It was a California car most of its life, still has the California “pink slip” title, the original CA black plates and the original dealers license plate frames.
The car has been restored with a high quality repaint (in 1993) in the original Rally Green, with no blisters, bubbles, or cracks to be found. Paint is an 8.5-9 out of 10, has a few small chips.
The car has been garaged and covered since 1993. The car had zero rust on it and retains all of its original panels, bumpers, glass, etc. No accidents or fender benders, see pic of the car prior to restoration (have others too).
The original 390 engine, M12 trans, brakes, carb, alternator, etc have been rebuilt to stock specs.
The interior has been restored with new carpet and abs style headliner while still retaining its original door panels, seat belts, sill plates, dash pads and seat inserts.
Bumpers, valve covers, air cleaner lid, breather, tail light & side marker bezels, mirror, emblems, etc have all been rechromed. Crack free taillights and reflector panel.
All gauges work, car has 138, 000 miles about 3000 since being rebuilt.
NEW PARTS include BFG radial T/A’s, Edelbrock & KYB shocks, full exhaust system, water pump, belts, master cylinder, carpet, pertronix ignitor, fuel sender, fuel pump, starter, etc.
Also included in the sale is a 5 speed Conversion, that includes: trans (rebuilt World Class T5), bell housing, New Centerforce flywheel, 2 shifters, pedals (already installed), trans mount, z bar, floor tunnel, boot, etc.
Pros:
All original unmolested car, no rust, no patch panels
Rebuilt motor, trans, brakes, carb, rad, etc.
Comes with complete 5spd conversion & misc extra parts
Original owners manual, service manual, wiring diagram, CA black plates, and misc items come with the car. I’m sure I am forgetting some of the extra parts I have and what else is new or replaced. Please don’t hesitate to ask.
Cons:
Crack on passenger side dash pad
Missing valve cover tag (thanks El Monte Chrome..)
A/C components off of car, but do come with it
Chrome is dulling on 3 of the original Magnum 500 wheels
Original sport steering wheel has some cracks
Missing radio antenna (radio works just needs a new speaker) jack and spare
I want a pro touring/ track car and I have come to the realization that this car is too nice and original to modify. Clean, clear title in my name. Can send additional pictures if needed. Car is located in Reno, NV 89511
Car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early.
Winning bidder must pay a deposit of $500 must be made within 24 hours of auction close. Full balance must be paid in full within 10 days. I will work with buyer arranged shippers.
