1969 AMC AMX

found this popped up on C/L, price dropped like a rock, dude wanted it gone, it is ROCK solid, 390 V8, 4-Speed, Power Disc brakes, 3:54:1 Tru Trac, 140 MPH speedo, tacometer, factory Magnum's, a few extra parts, running and driving, I am going to take my time doing this one, this has been on my wish list for a while, high school...30 years or so... but only the 2 seat AMX would do, 1968-1970...numbers matching, going back stock, Big Bad Green with white stripes....anybody got any parts!!!!

When we were in High School my friend Rick (say that with your teeth clenched mister) had one in his front yard for awhile. His step dad liked to swap and trade alot. This one was a 290 car with a 4 speed. White with red & blue stripes that ran fron front to back down the center. Right across the snorkel hood scoop. Can't forget the traction bars either. In 1987 it was a teenage boys dream though.

30 years ago I had parts,parted a 68 and 70 javelins to get motors. The 70 had a ram air hood with some of the aircleaner parts and I threw it out since I was working on a 72,both the 68 and 70 were hit in the rear and had excellent front sheetmetal and interiors and wish I had room to store the parts as I could get some money out of those parts now.

I still have the oil cooler that came off the 70,dont know if its factory or aftermarket.

There is someone that has a little private AMC junkyard on Rt 72 south of Jamestown before Bowersville on the west side of the road.

I will have to check it out.

Bought a bunch of extra stuff a guy had for a AMX, going to body shop in a few months...

What happened to this one?

sitting till I get the 4 in front of me done, Ranchero almost done, Mustang can be running driving in 2 days..after chero, mama's 59 Apache after mustang, and I have to put my Sprint back together.....I'm wore out now......

still in waiting on the lift....By Christmas, hope to have at Body shop getting painted......

I saw a 68 on craglist. It was a project. I would love to have it but I never would get to it. It was a 390 4 speed car.

Chris my body man came over, shot me a price, we are going to start on it May 1.....I can't wait....

Too cool! Going back to the factory color on this one?

Later,

My buddy has 2 or 3 of those, lives in Hamilton. Has a baby blue w/stripes and a med green one. He's got a Javelin or two also. Cool cars, but his baby blue one is my favorite, factory sidepipes and all. He may have some parts for them, I wold have to check.

Yep, back Green with White Stripes...I need a Drivers Side Front Fender....mine is ok, but on the bottom looks like he hit something...if I could find one, I'd buy it......

Let me try to get a hold of my buddy, I know he's parted a Javelin/AMX or 2 or 3 . I don't think he stores a lot of parts, but never know. He's right off Eaton hill in Hamilton so not far if he has one.

Chris...my body man, is finally getting my AMX in....so I am fixing the one spot of rust.....and getting it ready....will have it done by spring....
