2012 Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals Photos
Linda Vaughn and First Production Talladega I just returned from what had to be one of the best Car Shows I have ever attended. Unfortunately, Katrina could not make this show since she is recuperating from hip surgery but wants everyone to know she won’t miss another one. To start with the Muscle Car and [...]

Project Barn Find AMX Update
We have finally gotten the Project Barn Find AMX back from the paint shop, have the new interior in and have it out on the road. It isn’t finished yet; we still need to do all the detail clean up to the engine compartment and underside as well as take a look at a couple [...]
Barn Find Project AMX Update
As usual we have slipped a little on the timeline for the AMX but better to take your time and do it right than do it over again, Right? The car is 95% back together. The radio was rebuilt by Ward’s Classic Car Radio so the AM works great, the 8Track is nostalgic and the [...]
Craig Breedlove and AMX Set World 24 Hour Speed Record
Since we are about to have our Barn Find Project AMX back on the road I thought is might be time for a little history lesson. Many car enthusiasts think of the American Motors Corporation (AMC) as builders of little economy cars. Some of you younger guys probably don’t even know that AMC ever existed! It’s [...]
Project Barn Find AMX Update

1971 AMC Javelin Road Test
This is the car that I first think of when anyone ever mentions 1971 Javelin. These Penske cars were the Trans Am Champions and street sleepers of the day. Unfortunately, all of the street versions were not as hairy as this ride. Don’t get me wrong, they were good cars, not just the beast their [...]
Update on Project AMX
Some of you have been asking about the 1969 Project AMX in our garage. The work has been going on at a slow but steady rate. Some of the car is in the body shop and some of it is in our shop and some of it is still on the way from suppliers. I [...]

New AMX Project Car added to Garage
We have added a new Project AMX to our garage. It replaces the previous car which has since been sold to a new owner who will be completing it. We had the opportunity to pick up an excellent Barn Find but had to move one of our Project Cars out to make room for the [...]

AMX Photo Archive; Book Review
Since we are doing an AMX Project Car I thought it would be good to take a look back at the historical beginning of the AMX. One of the most famous cars was this pink 1968 AMX given to Playboy Playmate Angela Dorian. Every AMX has a dash plaque with the cars number on it. [...]
