Vehicle Description
1969 American Motors AMX - 390 4bbl- 4 speed - Drive and Show!
This is a very low production, 1969 American Motors AMX 390 cubic
inch 4 bbl 4 speed, refinished in Bittersweet Orange
(Copper/Bronze) that is "turn key" ready for the Cruise Events and
Casual Car Shows. The AMX engines were not stamped with VIN numbers
and yes, this one does have the original correct "390" casting of
3190806, and the VIN decodes correctly as an AMX 390 4 bbl. It has
the 4 Speed transmission. The "Go Package" included the 343 OR. 390
4V, Power Front Disc Brakes, dual Stripes, and a suspension
upgrade. This option can only be proven as original with an
original order/build sheet or MSRP window sticker. This one does
seem to check the boxes. This is an excellent driver that has
recently experienced "road trips" and always puts a smile on the
faces of those that remember how rare they were to see, even when
they were new! The restoration of the paint and body is older and
yet still shows very well overall. Mechanically, there are no
receipts for the rebuild and restoration done by a previous owner
although there will be no doubt when you see, hear and drive the
car, that it has been cared for and kept up. The mileage showing on
the odometer is close to 96,000 and while it can't be relied upon
as original miles, the caring owners in the past have provided the
investment in the restoration process as needed to keep it
mechanically strong and proudly shown as the Collectible that it
is. Other options include Tile Wheel, Power Steering and Power Disc
Brakes, the in dash Tachometer and an upgraded Stereo System with
CD. It is not with out the expected flaws of an older restoration
that has been enjoyed over time, although you can't beat the
opportunity at this price. With just over 8,000 1969 AMX's built, a
mere 3,620 had the 390 4V 4 Speed option boxes checked! This one
can be yours to 1.) invest in, 2.) have fun with and 3.) become one
of the exclusive small number of those collectors who can actually
own one.
$33,900.
VIN: A9M397X18001
