The first generation AMC Javelin

The American Motors Corporation is one of the lessor known names in the history of classic American muscle cars however they did succeed in making one of the coolest muscle cars of all-time, the AMC Javelin which evolved from the AMX (American Motors eXperimental). The Javelin had two distinct looking generations: the first generation that lasted from 1968-1970, and the second and somewhat larger generation that was produced from 1971 thru 1974. In my opinion both generations of the Javelin are incredibly cool and I would be proud to have either one in my garage, although if I were forced to pick one over the other I tend to be a bit partial to the first generation Javelin (but only by a hair).

The second generation (and slightly larger) AMC Javelin

The Javelin is known world-wide for it's racing prowess and was extremely successful in the trans-am series in the late 60's. The Javelin had a reputation for being a well handling car which helped it in competition but it was also a very powerful car featuring several factory combinations of high powered v8 engines. Special high performance models of the Javelin were produced as SST Javelin and the Trans-Am Javelinthat were both limited productions and are now some of the most sought-after and collectible muscle cars in existence.

Getting your hands on a well maintained Javelin of any variety can be a challenge however if you are able to find one and buy it or refurbish one that needs a little TLC you are sure to have found a fantastic investment as well as a treasure to tool around any mountain road.
