I grew up in Baldwin, I remember when Motion was still in business. There was more rubber on Sunrise highway than at a Goodyear plant

#302nastysbperiod.

Do you still have this car? If so would it be available?

We have one with a 455 and a moon roof. Great driver still!

This is a rare car, but it is not 1 of 1. And AMC never put Firestone Wide Ovals on any of their cars. It would have come with GoodYear Polyglas. None of these came with factory traction bars. (AMXs did!) The Go-Package was: the 4-barrel, ram air, dual exhaust, handling package, D70x14 Polyglas, and tach. The 4-speed was a separate option. The "Hurst" emblem is not from AMC. It's a lovely, well-equipped car. Thanks for featuring it!

Si iooo

body tag under hood said car was a 1975

What a Clown!! 😂😂

In April 1968, I bought a new AMX, 343 auto with go pac. 3.73 dealer install rear gears. I purchased from the dealer a stainless steel trim package. It consisted of 2 stainless door edge protectors that kept the door edge paint from chipping. It also had the 2 stainless window trim pieces that went over the edge of both side door windows. I never seen any other Javelin or AMX with that trim, few people knew about it I guess.

I bought one brand new. Add a black vinyl top and a factory air and that's the car I had. I gave $3500 plus a 1963 1/2 Ford Galaxy 500 as trade in. That, my 1971 T-Top Corvette and 1972 Scout are the only vehicles I ever owned I wish I had back. It's funny that my favorite vehicles are all from the 1970's.

Nice car.

Much to your amazement, engineers at Chrysler, integrated the "B" / "RB" engine into the '67 and beyond "A" Body chassis long before you ever knew what was going on. Cut the BS. If you think you had anything to to do with this "Discovery", you are a simpleton

Howd they shoe horn an LS5/LS6 In between the fenders of the super vega's and what spring held it up. Because BM cars always had the perfect stance. Love this car. Needs a cross ram and a M22 And the proper solid lifter cam out of the 67-69 Z's

Should have motion valve covers not moroso and i thought they had crager s/s

You need a motion free video camera !! 🎥

I go to about 3-4 AMC car shows on the East Coast a year for about 10 years now and you see about 3 to 5 of these 71' Hornet SC/360 at each show and the big Chryslers at Carlisle,PA show in the late summer has a big AMC section and about 4-5 SC/360's show up for that one also. There are many Koool AMC's at these car shows !! 👍 Semper Fi

I have a 1973 Pontiac LeMans Sport Coupe with the 400 engine same engine as this. It runs great. It doesn't have the hood and the badge and has automatic transmission. Doesn't have the 455 engine. But, it still runs great. They have a much better ride than the cars from 1972 and before.

Too bad Motion wasn't around long enough to put an LS6 in the Chevette 😲 They certainly would have built it , if you had the money to do it 😅

How much were they asking

I lost count of "very rare,very unique 1963"

W 32 Had a milder cam and different heads to accommodate the automatic transmission there were no four-speed W 32s

I want one of these so bad

Stop blabbing and get to the car!

Well shut up and show the car

Come on man speed it up your putting me to sleep 😴

A "rambler" talking about an "ambassador". Lol

Knock me over with a feather... I love too learn crazy facts.

Great!!

YOU NEED TO DO YOUR HOMEWORK, THIS CAR NEVER MADE A DENT INTO THE MUSCLE CAR ERA. NO BIG DEAL NEVER WAS ONE. TWIN STICK WAS JUST A GIMMICK NO SPEED.

Unbelievable!

I wish you could have showed us the car's exterior outside....

Once upon a time, I owned and used as a daily driver, red on red 1964 990H, 327 automatic {no twin stick) with a tachometer on the center console. I often regret selling it.

Perhaps AMC sold the twin shifters ( lightening rods) patent to GM.

Cool informative video, but you are wrong about the Lightning Rods shifters. They never came in an 87 442. They came in 83 and 84 Hurst Olds.

How much ya asking?? I have an original 69 SS/RS CAMARO.. WANT TO SEE WHAT YA GIVE ME!! I want something different, if ya still have it.

stop pacing back and forth

Smokey ram intake? Why not run it down the 1/4 thats what it was made for. Wont have any cross traffic or idiots on their celphone to hit ya. Id run this thing daily around town if i could..we all did back then what has changed?

Like you said, AMC was ahead of its time. They spent money on pioneering, not just manufacturing. That’s why they were broke most of the time. The head designer, Dick Teague was a genius. That car you got there is the first year to have curved side windows. GM and Ford didn’t have that until 1965. I had a 65 Rambler Classic 770 back then. It had the 287 V8. The only car I’ve had that I couldn’t hear the motor running at all. Sometimes I would stop to talk to someone and when I was done, I would turn the key and grind the flywheel because it was already running. It also had split front seats that reclined. I installed one of those reverb units and a rear speaker. My passengers couldn’t believe the sound of that. It had a beautiful dashboard. I wish I had it now…

Sweet Baldwin Motion Vega!!!Please check out my 1968 Barracuda fastback powered by a rowdy 512 stroker backed by an A833 4 speed manual. I think you'll approve. 👌

my brother bought this car from the original owner in Kenosha for 270 bucks in 1968 the car came with a white painted roof the interior was redone at Mikes custom interior in kenosha we painter the car once and the guy we sold it to replaced left rear quarter panel and re painted it again he sold to some one in illinois they did some things to it that are not correct like the woodgrain on the dash and console the engine should be all red r came with am radio which i did not know they had FM so thats cool add to the car the car has a 3:91 rear end gear seeing it again its one we should have kept the car is now on the east coast

Wrong description of shifting: it's a five speed

It's that day we're all four fifty fours apparently I was wrong

looks excellent, maybe contact AMO

HOKEY SMOKE BULLWINKLE, THATS A SMOKING HOT CAR!!😮😮😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅

Used to cruise with a guy from the south side 73 GTO Starlight black 400 4spd...fricken MINT car.

Tony,I bought my 68 442 from you Dec 1st 1989.......you da man.

I've always loved the Hurst Olds! Please check out my 1968 Barracuda fastback powered by a rowdy 512 stroker backed by an A833 4 speed manual. I think you'll approve. 👌

My 1971 CUTLASS Cruiser is a true concept 442 wagon. 455, W27 rear, W30 hood. Bucket seats, console with a Hurst Dual Gate His/Hers shifter. Factory cold A/C. Tilt column with 4 spoke Sport wheel. Factory Rally Pack gauges with tach. Power windows. Remote Sport mirrors. SSII 15 inch wheels. Dual exhaust. Front power disc brakes. Roof rack. Black on black. Car can be bought for the right price.

And on the 1/4 panels it sain Motion Super Vega and they had LT1 350 in them not a 302. 302's were stick shift motors they never had automatics. This is just a vega someone built the way they wanted. According to the tag this car was blue when new. You guys should really do some research before making a video and get some video skills while your at it.

302 was not part of Grabber package. One could be had with an inline 6. Grabber package in 1971 also included rear deck "duckbill" spoiler and "fog lights" in the grill.
