I don't remember for sure what the list price was, but I think around $3,200, with PS, PB, a/c, radio/castte player, a 4 spd. Yes it would hall a%s but my '66 Impalla 396 SS (375hp) with 4 spd, 4:11 positrack would smoke it. I kept the Impalla till late '72, when I decided I needed to get out of the hotrods and settle a little. Oh the AMX was in the junkyard by late '71, totaled by deer & tree.

List of cars I wish I had kept.
1. '52 Ford Flat Head V8 3 spd O/D (My High School car)
2. '57 Chevy Impala 4dr Hard Top 283 V8 Automatic
3. '58 Ford ragtop
4. '64 Buick Wildcat ragtop
5. '66 Chevy Impala SS 396
6. '68 Opel Kadet Stationwagon (the Mini Brute) Stayed in family for 10 yrs.
7. '73 Mustang Hardtop 302 V8, Auto, PS, PB, a/c, AM/FM/tape
8. '00 New Bettle TDI
