Wrench Report

By Chris Esparza

RestoMods Head Mechanic. 20 year classic car mechanic & builder.

A highly preserved, rare two-seater muscle car representing one of only 4,116 examples produced for the 1970 model year. I like that this one has been beefed up with a larger displacement 390, while still keeping everything true to factory-style specs. You've got factory air conditioning to keep you cool on summer drives and a three speed automatic for easy cruising.

Description

This 1970 AMC AMX is a rare two-seater muscle car representing one of only 4,116 examples produced for the 1970 model year. Originally leaving the factory equipped with a 360ci engine, the car now houses a larger, period-correct 390ci V8 engine. Built with standard factory chassis components and an original-style cabin layout, this classic American Motors performer is now offered by the selling dealer with a clean Washington title.

The exterior is finished in dark green metallic paint accented by black hockey-stick style side stripes. The AMX retains its distinctively short wheelbase, classic hood design, chrome bumpers, and factory brightwork.

The vehicle sits on period-correct steel wheels wrapped in road tires. The rear deck design remains true to AMC's sports coupe styling, and the trunk area features a standard cover mat.

The cabin is trimmed in a factory-correct pattern featuring black vinyl bucket seats. Just like factory specifications, this AMX does not have rear seats. The interior includes black carpeting and a black headliner. The center console and dashboard are finished with classic woodgrain trim accents, and the vehicle features factory air conditioning in the factory location.

The driver is presented with an aftermarket Grant woodgrain-rimmed steering wheel and the factory gauge cluster and also features a set of under-dash-mounted AutoMeter auxiliary gauges to monitor engine oil pressure and water temperature. Entertainment is updated via an Alpine stereo and head unit, with a speaker assembly installed in the rear bulkhead behind the driver and passenger.

The engine bay houses a period-correct 390ci V8 engine that is rated at 325 horsepower at 5,000 rpm and 425 lb-ft of torque at 3,200 rpm. The engine is configured with an original-style four-barrel carburetor topped with a colorful air cleaner and factory ignition components. Exhaust gases are spent into aftermarket headers and through an update stainless exhaust system, exiting in the stock location at the rear. Power is directed to the rear wheels via a Borg Warner three-speed automatic transmission, and sent to the rear wheels via an AMC Model 20 rear end.

The undercarriage features factory-specification suspension, steering, and braking systems to maintain a period-correct driving feel. Front coil and rear leaf springs and shock absorbers remain in their stock configurations.
