NO RESERVE Rare AMC Ambassador $$T w/ Original 390 AMX V8 engine

Private enthusiast with too many cars.
This rare car is for sale with NO RESERVE. High bid takes it home.
1969 American Motors Ambassador SST 390 AMX 4-DOOR SEDAN.
This car was sold new in 1969 with the rare Factory AMC X-code 390 cubic inch V8 with 10.2:1 compression ratio, forged steel crankshaft and connecting rods, and 4-barrel carburetor.
The ORIGINAL owner's manual in the glove box verifies that this car's RARE 390 cubic inch 4-barrel carbureted engine produced 316 horsepower and 424 lb-ft of torque.
AMC built only a few thousand of these Ambassador SST 4-door sedans with the AMX 390/4V engine, selling most to police departments, limo companies, or taxi companies.
Not many survived.
I have paperwork for the car's entire life.I am the 4th owner.Car was treated to Ziebart when new to prevent rust.
Paint looks good (one repaint years ago)
Interior looks original and clean.Two bench seats with 6 pairs of seat belts.Front bench seat is a manual split seat and both seat backs can fully recline.Engine block has "390" cast in the side. (see image)The Carter Carburetor appears original to me. (see images)Chrome looks good.Headliner looks good.Glass looks good.Carpet looks good.Four original wire wheel covers look good.Original spare tire/wheel and jack are in the trunk.Windows are manual and work as they should.Dash looks good except for a few cracks in the center radio speaker grill.Car is clean throughout.
Looks Rust free to me due to Ziebart (other than rust bubbles under the vinyl roof.)
Floors and Trunk are solid.New reproduction under-hood insulation mat.New reproduction trunk floor lining.
Prior owner drove it to my house when I purchased it, butI have 4 collector cars and never got around to enjoying this one.I never licensed and insured the car-------for that reason, I drove it only around my neighborhood, and never had a mechanic look at the car.
It may be ok to cruise around town as-is, but I recommend that the car be serviced due to the mileage before you drive across the country in this original 1969 car with 143,000 miles.
It has a strong engine even with 143,000 miles.Transmission shifts as it should, but has a leak, perhaps from the pan gasket.Front suspension should be inspected and serviced. It's old.I never pulled the drums or inspected the brakes. It stops fine.A/C system is complete but has not been converted to the new Freon, nor has it been checked for leaks.Prior owner installed dual exhaust.Air Cleaner Lid is not original, but an aftermarket top.
CLEAN SC title in my name with no liens.
Local pick up or I will assist your shipper.
Located 5 minutes West of Charlotte, NC and are minutes from I-85 and I-77.
Car is sold as-is.
Please send questions.
