1968 AMC AMX with True Fire flames and Supercharged Pro-Charger

1968 AMC AMX – Very Unique - Limited production 2-seater - VIN #A8C397X348054

Metallic blue paint with true fire flames, High back leather buckets, Power brakes, AC, JVC CD player, Audiobahn speakers. Dash plate # 05300. Third owner, originally a California car, always garaged no rust that I am aware of. This has the original Modified 390 with Automatic transmission. The Engine was stroked to 401 cu. In. Approx 9:1 compression, forged crank, forged pistons, forged rods. Edelbrock, RPM Performer heads, cam, air gap intake, Holley 4150 double pumper carb modified by Pro-Systems for blow-through (carb just refreshed). Pro-Charger F1 under hood super charger set up for approx. 16 PSI. I have an optional belt and pulley to run at approx 25 PSI. The crank pulley and super charger brackets were custom made and this is one of very few AMX's I know of featuring a Pro-Charger.

It has a brand new Aeromotive A1000 electric fuel pump, new battery, new solenoid,Griffin double core radiator with 3 electric fans. Edlebrock valve covers and roller style rockers. ARP high strength head bolts. Powermaster high torque starter, Mallory HyFire VI computerized ignition system, Mallory Unilite distributor, ProMaster coil, Grant steering wheel. Original wheel has cracks but goes with the car. Replaced electric wiper motor, but I never drive it in the rain. American Racing rims, tires in great shape. 2.86 rear gear.

The car has been cruised, not drag raced at the track. Speedometer shows around 53000 miles, which is about 5K more than when I bought it, and reworked the engine.

The paint and car are in good shape. It is not a museum piece, but a nice unique car that gets a lot of attention every time I cruise it.You can view a walk around video at the link below. I will be adding a better video this weekend.
