AMC AMX
A rare two-seat entry in the muscle car era, the AMC AMX offered a V8-powered, budget-friendly alternative to the Corvette. It's highly prized by collectors today, especially the original 1968-1970 models with the 390 "Go Package".

The AMC AMX arrived in 1968 as a unique player in the muscle car era. Unlike its rivals, it was a true two-seat sports car based on a shortened Javelin platform, positioning it as a direct competitor to the Corvette but at a more accessible price. All AMXs came with V8 power, culminating in the highly sought-after 390 V8, especially when equipped with the performance-oriented "Go Package."
Collectors value the original 1968-1970 two-seat models for their rarity and underdog spirit. With only 19,134 two-seaters built over 3 years, they're far less common than Mustangs or Camaros. Their distinctive styling and legitimate performance credentials, particularly in 390 guise, make them a standout at any car show. The limited production and unique market position ensure their place in muscle car history.
Today's market reflects this desirability, with a wide spread in values based on condition and originality. The average sale price hovers around $28,000, making good driver-quality cars attainable. However, fully restored, numbers-matching "Go Package" examples can command prices upwards of $70,000, showing strong demand for the best of the breed.
Buying Tips
- Rust is the biggest enemy. Pay close attention to the rear quarter panels, trunk floor, floor pans, and the area around the rear window.
- Verify the engine. The 390 V8 is the most desirable; for 1968-1969, look for an 'X' as the 7th digit of the VIN. For 1970, it's a 'Z'.
- Check for a genuine "Go Package." This adds significant value and includes features like power front disc brakes, a Twin-Grip differential, and heavy-duty suspension.
- Inspect the unibody structure carefully. Check the front and rear frame rails for corrosion or signs of poor accident repair.
- Many interior parts are specific to the AMX and can be difficult and expensive to find. Check the dash pad for cracks and ensure all trim is present.
