AMX-Clamation!!!Volumevolume 17 Number 3 May-June 2008 http://clubs.hemmings.com/northcoastamc AMX-Clamation!!!VolumeVolume 17 Number 3 May-June 2008 American Motors Ramblings Getting the Word Out Dale Veverka The picture above was featured in the Sunday, February 24th, 2008 edition of the Cleveland Plain Dealer. The article (“Cleveland’s Classics at the Auto Show”) included information about club member Kevin Ferguson’s efforts restoring his 1970 AMX. At the Cleveland Auto Show we visited with Kevin’s dad (on duty with the AMX) and provided club web site cards for any interested viewers. This year’s auto show brought the vintage cars out of the basement and into a much more highly visible location. His car looked great and countless viewers had the opportunity to see his AMC along with an attractive Rambler American convertible at the other end of the historical vehicle display. Two weeks later Kevin’s car appeared again. This time the AMX was spotted by fellow club members getting its propers at the 2008 Autorama. The exposure of a club member’s car indicates to us the value of putting the cars out in the car community. It was suggested that maybe “someone” could coordinate a club display at the 2009 Autorama. Let the president know if you are up to the task. Kevin, you did the club proud. The June 8th, 2008 NCAMC car show will soon be upon us. Hopefully many members have taken the opportunity to “spread the word” about our show. Putting up a flyer at your favorite parts supplier goes a long way to supporting the club and increasing its exposure all over Northeast Ohio and into western Pennsylvania. Contact Information...

July/Aug. newsletter – June 15 June 15 for articles/May 21 for classifieds Sept./Oct. newsletter – Aug. 1 Aug. 1 for articles/July 21 for classifieds Highest Price Ever Fetched? Shaune Zavertnik Recently Mecum on line Ebay auctioned off an original paint, dealer info documented AMX this past week. It went for an astounding $49,000! I do believe that might be the highest priced AMX I have ever witnessed (although I know SS go for more, but you never see those sales results) Proving once again like I have always told Scott Campbell that the ‘70 is far superior (hee-hee). Check it out at Ebay #230238093483. Show Site 2008 Dale Veverka A number of members have asked questions about the site of the June 8th, 2008 “School’s out AMC Car Show”. So here goes. The site is a farm that is adjacent to our summer cottage in Lexing- ton Township (Atwater 44201-9407). It is 5 miles north of Alliance Ohio. Route 225 is a quarter mile from the show site, and the road is blacktopped. Be aware that Route 225 is the only means of access to our section of German Church Road. Berlin Reservoir covers the section of the roadway one half mile east of the show field. Parking for 70+ cars is in a large grassy area adjacent to the cottage. On site is a large picnic pavilion and rest rooms. There is ample space along our dead end road if any cars happen to arrive on trailers. A quarter mile further down the road is a nature preserve for spouses to enjoy if they grow tired of admiring the cars. We can set up grills on the back porch of the cottage. A row of large maples will provide some nice shade for parts of the show field. Sure hope we can cover the site with AMCs. I hope to have some aerial shots taken of our car show. Oh, by the way, a mile south on Rt. 225 at the Barber Airport their will be a “fly-in” featuring airplanes powered by automobile engines. On Sunday, they serve an early bird pancake breakfast from 7 am on for early risers. AMC Engine Paint Shaune Zavertnik If you are looking for some blue engine paint for your AMC, you can order from various AMC vendors or go straight to the source at www.seymourpaint.com. Cost is about $11 per can (went up $3 since last year!!!) or they can give you a number for a local vendor to purchase it from at 1800-345-4482. Keep in mind shipping charges on MSDS restrictions that come with paint shipping (ie; the cost increase this year) Our color is en-66 bright blue metallic for pre-1973 engines. Last month I saw that Kennedy’s web site had it for $7, but shipping was extra. We ordered some hood clips two years ago that cost $6 to buy, but shipping in the two ounce envelope from UPS was $7.50!!! The One That Just Got Away! Gary Steely There it was, “The first post-war American powered sports car”. Only 506 were built in its four year production run. Is it a Chevy? NO! Ford? NO! Dodge? NO! AMC? Well, almost! How about a 1951 Nash- Healey? You know the story, chance meeting of George Mason and Donald Healey in the middle of the Atlan- tic Ocean, Summer of 1949. What a great story, like someone just made it up, only this one’s the truth. Before Corvettes or T-birds there was the Nash-Healey 2-seat roadster. It was powered by an Ambassador 6-cyl. with dual carbs, Nash transmission and torque-tube drive. Chassis and body were hand built by Donald Healey in England, where he installed the drivetrain and engine with its modified cylinder head and intake manifold. The first 104 were aluminum bodied with outboard headlights and a Rambler Grille. On Feb. 13th, 2008 I spot Ebay # 290205580908, and it’s the real thing. Debbie has put up with a lot of ‘stuff’, but she will never believe this one. What am I going to do? By Friday the 15th it’s only been bid up to $2650. Funny thing is, we were just discussing this model car at Dale’s house last Sunday. I like being differ- ent than the ‘status quo’ and with all the AMXs, Javelins, and other hi-performance low production cars owned by members of our club (like 1 of 2 or 1 of 2501 or 1 of 1512), I thought 1 of 104 or 1 of 506 would be just the ‘ticket’. Friday night, over dinner, I explained to Deb, all the reasons I could think of to justify putting a bid in on this car. To my surprise, she said OK, but $5K would be the maximum bid. We logged on to Ebay only to discover that the bidding had reached $5100. I told her to turn it off and moped around the house the rest of the night. Saturday morning arrived and once my little projects were done for the day, I stopped at my office and logged on to Ebay just to take a peek. Bidding had stalled at $5200. Home I went with a new appeal. I promised Deb I would sell my blue Subaru, the green Gremlin and make a list of parts to sell on Ebay if she would let me bid ONE MORE TIME! Again, she said OK and we bid $6K, damn, still not enough. Okay one more time, max bid $6400. BAM we are the high bidder @ $6100. Sunday morning arrived, and just before we left for church (about 9:30am), I logged on to discover (with only 4 hours to go) that we were STILL the high bidder. A family outing made it impossible to change my final bid. When we returned home at 3:30pm (2 hours after the close of bidding), we found out that we were outbid by $100. My personal opinion (not shared by my spouse) is that a bid of 10K would still be considered a ‘bargain’ 5 or 10 years from now. LOL Gauge Repair Parts Shaune Zavertnik Recently I saw a set of silver faced ‘69 AMX gauges go for an astounding $810!! Gimme a break!! Mopar rally gauges got stupid money long ago too, but then came repo stickers and now complete kits. Well the folks at RT Engineering have also expanded their repair line to do AMX gauges. They offer a 1969-70 quartz clock repair kit for $75 and a digital 71-4 tic-toc-tach repair kit for $75 as well. If you are not capable of doing it yourself they offer repair services. The many various tools for doing any such repair are offered by them too. Take some time and look it up at www.rt-eng.com Membership Profile Name: Shaune Zavertnik Current AMCs: 1) ‘70 AMX painted BBG/shadow mask 390 wide ratio 4 spd. 3.15 posi with added trendset- ter side pipes. This car currently has a ‘71 corduroy interior as it is much more comfortable in the summer. This car is a Hialeah yellow/shadow mask car with a 360 automatic and leather interior that lived its entire life in the Willoughby/Eastlake area.

  • 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 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.
