Re: 2 -Factory Correct -Matador Red AMC Rebel Machines
Draginwagon;
I don't know where you got your stats from, but there were approximately 2328 Rebel Machines built. I was an avid AMC enthusiast for years, before jumping ship to Corvettes.
Hornet S/C 360 production was approximately 674, while Hurst Scrambler Rambers (Rogue body style) were around 1512 built.
I owned only Javelins and AMX's, mostly 1970, had twelve of them. Production for the 1970 Mark Donohue edition Javelin was 2501, and the RED/WHITE/BLUE Trans Am Javelin was 100 built.
Unfortunately about the only real threat to Chrysler, GM and Ford muscle cars, track or street was the Hurst Super Stock AMX's, 52 were built in 1969. I believe they were built for homolgation to the SS/C & SS/D classes. Shirley Shahan campaigned one successfully. Then Craig Breedlove and his wife broke 102 USAC national and international endurance runs with a pair of '68 AMX's, one a 290cid, the other a 390cid. However Mickey Thompson came along the following year in 1969 with a Boss Mustang and broke these records.
