Summary

Description
English: 1966 AMC AMX Prototype designed by American Motors Corporation (AMC). This was the first "AMX" (American Motors Experimental) named car. This is a full-sized model of a concept car that features AMC's "Ramble Seat" (a version of the old rumble seat and named (in homage to the automaker's Rambler models) for two additional passengers in this two-seat sports car design. It also has no "A" pillars providing for greater visibility. This prototype "pushmobile" has a fiberglass body with no interior, engine, drivetrain, suspension, etc. It was built and displayed at the 1966 Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) conference in Detroit, Michigan. This concept design was widely covered by the automotive media in 1966. It appeared on several auto magazine covers. It was also painted in a metallic blue. The back seat fords into the trunk space and the rear window flips down. However, these are not fully weatherproofed designs. Positive response to this design was followed by Richard A. Teague, the Vice President of Design at AMC, to build an operational show car. Picture taken at the car show on Saturday, July 25, 2015, during the American Motors Owners Association (AMO) annual convention that was held near Cleveland, Ohio.
