This 1968 AMC AMX is an outstanding example of American Motors'
short-lived but highly distinctive two-seat muscle car, offering a
mix of originality, performance, and preservation that's hard to
find today. AMX #02267 has been garage-kept by the same owner since
1975 and shows just 49,937 original miles. The car underwent a full
restoration, preserving its factory-correct appearance while
maintaining its authenticity and historical integrity. Finished in
its correct 79/00 Bittersweet Orange exterior with vinyl trim code
T-832A, the AMX radiates the bold, sporty personality that defined
the model when it debuted in 1968.
Power comes from its original 390 cubic inch V8 engine paired with
an automatic Shift-Command transmission and center console. This
drivetrain combination delivers strong performance, while the
throaty note from the Flowmaster mufflers adds a satisfying modern
edge to its vintage muscle tone. The car rides on factory chrome
mag wheels wrapped in red line bias ply tires, giving it the
perfect period-correct look. It's also equipped with power steering
and the factory "All Seasons" air conditioning system, a rare
option that still retains its original operating sleeve attached to
the sun visor - a detail that speaks to the car's exceptional
preservation.
Inside, the cabin remains faithful to its original configuration
with features like shoulder belts, factory tachometer, push-button
AM/FM radio, the Adjust-O-Tilt steering wheel, and AMC's Visibility
and Light Group options. Every element, from the vinyl trim to the
instrumentation, reflects the meticulous care given to this AMX
over the decades.
Sold new at Cherry Hill Motors in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, and
assembled in Kenosha, Wisconsin, this AMX represents one of AMC's
most ambitious efforts to take on Detroit's established muscle car
builders. Documentation includes the original window sticker and
various factory details that confirm its authenticity.
With its long-term single ownership, low mileage, documented
restoration, and rare options, this AMX stands as one of the finest
examples of its kind. Beautifully finished, well-equipped, and
historically significant, it's a turn-key classic that represents
the true spirit of the late 1960s American performance era - a car
that looks, sounds, and drives every bit as good as it did when
new.
