  • 1968 AMC AMX Rally Car PRICE £100,000
    1968 AMC AMX Rally Car PRICE £100,000 ABOUT THIS CAR IDEAL FOR USE ON: Flying Scotsman, Himalayan Challenge, Trans America, Rally Round Africa, Paris to Amsterdam, The 4th Alpine Trial, Slartibartfast, Maharaja Marathon, Peking to Paris, Flight of the Condor Rally Preparation Services is pleased to offer this 1968 AMC AMX classic car for sale. This long-distance endurance rally car was stripped to a bare shell before being purpose built for the 2016 Peking to Paris Motor Challenge, a now famous endurance rally. There is no doubt that in the right hands, this is a potential rally winner. AMC (American Motor Corporation) was formed by the merger of Nash Kelvinator (as in fridges) and the Hudson Motor Co. in 1954 and soon competed with the big three despite being a much smaller company. Innovative engineering such as tandem master cylinders and manufacturing practices such as shared componentry helped the company compete along with the far-sighted purchase of Jeep. A largely unsuccessful merger with Renault followed the eventual absorption by the Chrysler Corporation which phased out the AMC brand by the late 1980s. The AMX was a mix of sports car and muscle car. Production ran for just three years from 1968 to 1970 and was unique in being the only steel constructed two seater car made in America at the time and voted ‘Best Engineered Car of the Year’ in 1969 and 1970 by the American Society of Automotive Engineers. Rally preparation includes a bespoke roll-cage which follows modern practice of reinforcing the bodyshell and suspension pick up points.

  • The Talepipe
    The Talepipe March 2019 Fallbrook Vintage Car Club The Fallbrook Vintage Car Club is a group of members that share a common interest in the preservation and appreciation of vintage vehicles. We are dedicated to serving others through charitable events and activities that reflect positively on the Fallbrook community. A Region of the Antique Automobile Club of America About This Month’s Cover See the story about Bob Nixon elsewhere in this issue... The AMC Gremlin (also American Motors Gremlin) is an American subcompact automobile introduced in 1970, manufactured and marketed in a single, two-door body style in America (1970- 1978) by American Motors Corporation (AMC) — as well as in Mexico (1974-1978) by AMC’s Vehículos Automotores Mexicanos (VAM) subsidiary. Featuring a shortened Hornet platform and bodywork with a pronounced, almost vertical tail, the Gremlin was classified as an economy car by 1970’s U.S. standards. It competed with the Chevrolet Vega and Ford Pinto, as well as imported cars that included the Volkswagen Beetle and Toyota Corolla. The small domestic automaker marketed the Gremlin as “the first American-built import”. The Gremlin reached a total production of 671,475 over a single generation — and was superseded by a (thoroughly) restyled variant, the AMC Spirit. Designed to look either “cute or controversial - depending on one’s viewpoint ... for many, it seemed perfect for the free-thinking early 1970’s.” American Motors executives apparently felt confident enough to not worry that the Gremlin name might have negative connotations. Time magazine noted two definitions for gremlin: “Defined by Webster’s as ‘a small gnome held to be responsible for malfunction of equipment.’ American Motors’ definition: ‘a pal to its friends and an ogre to its enemies.’” The car’s cartoon-inspired mascot was marketed for product differentiation and was intended to be memorable to consumers.

  • AMC Straight-6 Engine 1 AMC Straight-6 Engine
    AMC straight-6 engine 1 AMC straight-6 engine The American Motors Corporation (AMC) straight-6 family of engines was used in AMC passenger cars and Jeep vehicles from 1964 through 2006. 195.6 American Motors' first straight-six engine was the 195.6 cu in (unknown operator: u'strong' L). It was produced from 1958 through 1965 in both overhead valve (OHV) and flathead (L-head) side-valve versions. Sometimes referred to as the 196 engine, this engine was originally designed by Nash in the 1930s as a flathead, and redesigned as an OHV engine in 1956. The flathead version was discontinued for 1956–1957, but reemerged in 1958 as the economy engine for the "new" Rambler American. When the engine was changed to an OHV configuration the water pump was moved from the left side of the engine (driven by a shaft extending from the back of the generator) to the front above the timing chain. When the flathead model was reintroduced it also received the new water pump. Equipped with such high quality parts as forged crankshafts and connecting rods, these engines earned a reputation for remarkable durability. The flathead, however, was prone to the typical flathead problem of overheating under sustained heavy load. This was from the hot exhaust traveling through the cylinder block to the exhaust manifold. American Motors introduced a die-cast aluminum block version of the OHV 195.6 cu in (unknown operator: u'strong' L) engine in 1961. It was produced through 1964. This engine used cast-iron cylinder liners and a cast-iron head.

  • The 1964 Rambler Tarpon Concept Car Article from Fish Tales
    Marlin History The 1964 Rambler Tarpon Concept Car By Joe Howard, Fish Tales Editor Vol 9 No 1, March 2008 Distinctive! Different! That best describes the AMC Marlin. There certainly was nothing else like it on the road when it debuted in 1965. How did the Marlin come to be? How did the design concept begin? Viewing the Marlin in retrospect, we can see that it has proven to be one of the most popular of all collectible AMCs. Let’s look back and see how this unique automobile started. Early in 1963, American Motors management started angling for “a new car with a sports flair”. Richard (Dick) Teague, then AM’s Director of Styling, and his staff were happy to comply. Their average age hovered around 35, and they were excited about developing a car more suited to younger tastes. One opinion by Jim Alexander, a former AM designer, was that Teague chose a compact fastback because he had heard about Plymouth’s soon-to-be-released Barracuda “and felt that we could do something like that, too”. On the other hand, Vince Geraci, who managed Senior Car exteriors, couldn’t recall any mention of the Barracuda at that time but suggested that Teague “wanted a fighter for the Mustang. [And] we didn’t have the wherewithal that Ford had to retool. We either had to take it off the American body, or off the Classic body”. The 1964 Rambler Tarpon Concept Car Either way, Teague’s answer was a pillarless, fastback roofline grafted on to AM’s entry-level Rambler American.

  • AMX-Clamation!!!Volumevolume 14 Number 3 May-June 2005 American Motors Ramblings
    Serving the Northeast Ohio AMC enthusiast since 1991 AMX-Clamation!!!VolumeVolume 14 Number 3 May-June 2005 American Motors Ramblings... Scott Campbell Okay, so I lied. In the January/February issue I promised a return to Norwalk for Great AMC Day with my tur- quoise ‘69 AMX. Who could have guessed that instead I would sell it after 22 years of ownership? I sure wouldn’t have! This story begins late last year when it was mentioned on the AMC Forum that a certain factory pink AMX might be offered for sale. The owner really wanted an AMX to modify, and in his opinion this car was just too unusual to alter from stock. As I read this I thought, “wow, someone is going to score a really rare AMX!” I didn’t give it any more thought as I had seen the car last year in Kenosha and it looked nice. That combined with the special color would certainly put the car well out of my range. Then in January I happened upon Eddie Stakes’ monthly “Shut Up And Drive” listing of AMCs for sale all over the country. There, part way down was: 1969 AMX 390, pink, $16K. That got me thinking... In late January I contacted “PinkAMX” on the Forum asking if he had ever completed the sale of his car and if it was the same one on Eddie’s list. He didn’t even know abut the “SUAD” listing but confi rmed that yes, it was his car and that it was still for sale.
