Who ever made this video and the AI voice had no idea about anything AMERICAN Motors

Your stock footage is all wrong...at least get that part right.

0:11 ..... why are you showing Dodge Chargers? 1:20 ..... Oh wow, there's a AMC GTO! 1:30 ...... An AMC BUICK. 2:29 ...... Cool!!!! You could get a Javelin with a blown Toyota engine? 3:01 ...... Unbelievable, did a core tile mile in 17 seconds. 6:30 ...... Seriously??? .... A Mustang? 9:40 ...... Hot Damn looky here, we done got ourselves a AMC Challenger. 10:12 .... another one of them AMC Challengers. The other mixed mashed images were just to numerous to mention. This has to be the worse editing job I have ever seen.

This video is so terribly made and edited, so low on quality and full of data errors that the creator should delete it out of dignity. They should remake the video, remove all those pictures of non-AMC cars that have nothing to do, get the data corrected, not mix up models like the Javelin and AMX, to mention just a few issues.

Javelin! Didn't know what I had back then. Collapsing lifters and all.

I'm sick of BOTS narrating stuff. Get back to a Human that can talk.I had a 1963 Ambassador with 327 (AMCs) Stick & .44:1 posi. 14.9 in 1/4 mile, 92 mph, & one mighty quick street racer. THAT was fun, putting down many hot cars.

Javelin is SO HARD TO FIND today - Wish I had one but I would be happy with the AMX The Two Seat Model is SUPER RARE

The information on the Pacer X in this video came from the MEXICAN version of the Pacer X (the VAM Pacer X). The Mexican Pacer Xs were the ones with the special 150 net HP version of the 4.6 Liter straight six engine (282 cid), which was NEVER available in the United States and Canada. This video is supposed to be about the original AMC versions of the cars mentioned here, not the overseas ones. The research done for this video was very poor.

Done with this video! Showing R/T's, gto's, old buicks

The care and precision in your restoration work are truly extraordinary. You've breathed new life into this car, turning it into a magnificent blend of history and beauty

In 1970 my Dad went out to buy a new car . He said he was going to buy a Mustang Mach 1... he came home with a yellow Javelin with a green vinyl top . I was so mad I wouldn't talk to him for 3 days ! But I finally got a ride in the Javelin and I saw what sold him that car . We were going down an on ramp doing about 45 miles per hour and he FLOORED IT ! It SPUN THE TIRES until it shifted into 3rd gear ! It was kinda ugly but it was FAST ! We went to my Grandparents house in it and we were asleep on the interstate except my Mom and woke me up when she floored it . We were doing 105 Mph . Mom had a lead foot . The car was FAST ! PK

My favorite,401, second choice is the 360 and both I installed in the best AMC model. The AMC CJ5 JEEP. These are nuclear muscle off road. Michigan snow and mud and sand dunes, don't forget the cedar swamp's!..

It was the my most favorite car I've ever owned, bought it when was 16 used 58 k miles 500 bucks

had to share this cool muscle car history

video is messed up but it reminds me of when my mother bought a Pacer when I was in high school...with me wishing she had bought the Javlin...

All AMC vehicles had fantastic motors. The only real pain Chrysler bought them. Never good at marketing.

Dude. Your numbers are all over the place. At least get the engine size and performance times right.

Nice info, but amc and Mopar use the same lifter bore sizes...food for thought.

A Good Friends Father had a AMC Dealership in "73" in Elgin Illinois, in "74" they just started selling The Bricklen, a neat car but I think it had a Ford engine and other problems! But unfortunately Nixon took the US off the Gold Standard and the economy blew up! AMC stopped the 2% pledge, based on the value of the new cars on the lot! That most dealerships depended on as operating cash! It was an incentive for dealerships to take as many new car models as possible! Forcing a better sale deal at the end of the year! (August) Never owned the faster AMC's but I did buy my ex bosses wife DL Pacer for $500.00 it was the best used car I've ever bought for $500! It had a 253 good on gas and okay power! The only thing I replaced was the rack & pinion which I bought at a junkyard for $50.00. it was a great car! It shined at drive-ins! You could back it in! And lay the back seat down a couple of pillows and blankets leave it running with AC on in Texas, with the FM Radio modulators it had great sound! TMI! The American Motors made good cars! But they didn't? Or couldn't stay up with the Big 3! And the "70's" was AMC's last gasp! RIP......!

Restore it for the second time.I let it sit too long beautiful car

Someone with an sc used to show up at a little drag strip in Southwest Missouri. Never mind the sweltering heat it always ran "as advertised" times I wanted one.

Getting the footage off the cars is confusing....you even shove a Pontiac in between the footage as well as some modern car footage as well....

I'm sorry, but the gremlin to me is a sexy car!!😊

3 minutes into this .... this is terrible. No real research here. Just a bunch of hooey thrown at a screen for making money. You show pictures that aren't amc... you show 401 while ai yaps about a 390. THE MACHINE should never have been listed as number 15 as it was the fastest production car made at the time. Yes a production car!! Yenko and shelby made aftermarket cars . The machine had all production parts ... the difference and only reason not in record books as such is... the production facility in Kenosha did not have room on production line to fit "service performance package " onto vehicle. With that parts group that had to be installed at dealership THE MACHINE would get 1/4 mile in high 10's. No other car could do that from production untill 2000's. It should be number 1 on list. 68 Javelin had 343 in them with " go pack" it would do the 0-60 you mentioned in 8 seconds or less. Not a slow 11. You have SO much wrong with this people will be ignorant after watching it. You will actually steal peoples i.q. points. Do some real research .. get some archived photos if thats all you can get and put together a better video. Maybe try talking to some people that actually owns one or two . Maybe talk to some older race car drivers. 3 minutes in ... ive had enough.

Lots of incorrect information!

i love how the announcer talks about weight in metric terms. I doubt he was even alive in the 60s & 70s

69 Plymouth Roadrunner came with 383cu.in. v-8 and 335 H.P. but the 390 Rebel came with 411 rear gears and positraction which made it faster than the R/R. They are reporting here high 1/4 mile times. Real times were in the 11's. weak point were its rear hubs, they should have put beefed up ones.

11 seconds from 0 to 60 and a 17 second quarter mile is NOT impressive by any means. Unless you’re on a bicycle.

good video

I don't know why but numbers have the fudged somewhere along history. If my stock 74 charger with a 318 can hit 100 before 14 seconds, any car passing the finish line at 14 second at 100mph is slow as hell

0:19 Showed a pic of the '68 AMX & titled it as a Javelin. Then showed a '71 Javelin & titled it an AMX. After that I knew I was going to be watching $**t. So I quit, stopped the video, gave it a dislike & went somewhere else.

At one point showing an engine with modern fuel injection system. Garbage posting.

Quartile mile? Was it a Wooper, or a Whopper? Send your AI back to grade school English.

Just never try to turn 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅

Showing straight 6's when talking about v8s. Top speed of 80mph. Uuuugh. This may be the worst video I have ever seen. Cool cars though.

Why do people make videos like this? It's all wrong. Can't tel the difference between a Charger and a GTO

Kilos?

What a truckload of garbage & misinformation! Pictures of cars sprinkled in that make NO SENSE OR HAVE NO RELEVANCE!

WHY ARE THEY SO STUPID GIVING SO MUCH WRONG INFORMATION

Its CAMARO NOT Camero

This is a terrible video. 14 second quarter miles was very average to below average. 0 to 60 times of 6 seconds is also very average and was very common with just about every stock 60's super car made by everyone. Lots of aftermarket performance parts were available and needed to make the AMC cars somewhat competitive on a drag strip. Leaf spring rear suspension suffered from excessive wheel hop unless traction bars were installed. It was just easier to order healthy Camaros, Mustangs, Challengers, and Barracudas. Not to mention specialized cars like the Z-28 Camaro, Boss 302 Mustangs, Hemi Dodge and Plymouths, W-31 and W-30 Olds 442s, 396/375 HP Chevelles, Novas, and Camaros. AMC products were slower, handled poorly, rusted, and depreciated at an alarming rate. Most of those competitive supercars ran quarter mile times in the mid 13 to high 12 second range with very little modifications. AMC's were just not that competitve. As a side note, I was born and raised in Kenosha, Wi. and had direct experience with every single AMC product that was talked about in these videos. 3 of 10 super cars on the streets were AMC products, and the staff engineers knew how to modify their cars and produce very impressive horsepower numbers. However, the guys and gals in Kenosha that knew the performance market rarely bought AMC products. This unfortunately was a sign that the company was in trouble going forward.

Stupid video, by an uniformed host. The fastest AMC Drag Car's were the Super Stock AMX's (52 made) The fastest top speed AMC's were the Penske/ Donahue Javelins of Trans Am fame. AMC never made a fast car after 1974, He did not even mention the Randle enterprises 401 Gremlins. All AMC's came with smooth running camshafts (can you say Taxicab) A camshaft change with a set of Headers was worth 50 to 75 Horsepower making the AMC engines competitive with anyone!

This is an AI hack job. Dont waste your time

They built nothing but crap.

Liters? You're talking about American Motors and, of course, American cars that AMC made. You measure torque in liters? What is 430 "Units"? Hey, lets throw in a random shot of a Mustang! You misspelled Camaro. I despise AI narration...

Ferrari was not only made to go straight it was a track car so just because that thing was lower geared and faster than a Ferrari it was a piece of shit in every other way

Any thing is faster than a Ferrari 😂
