English: 1977 AMC Hornet AMX, a sports compact built by American Motors Corporation. Originally a sports GT-type two-seater from 1968 to 1970, the AMX name was used from 1971 to 1974 on the top high-performance model of AMC's Javelin "pony car" and later returned on this Hornet plarform. The AMX was hatchback body style and included either the 258 cu. in. (4.2 L) I6 engine with 4-speed or automatic transmission, or the 304 cu. in. (5.0 L) V8 with a floor-mounted automatic, as well as the following as standard: painted bumpers with rubber guards and nerf strips, painted fender flares and front air dam, black rear window louvers, AMX graphics on lower bodyside and rear deck, dual outside mirrors in flat back (left side remote controlled), blacked out window frames, grille, and rear panel, a silver "targa" roof band, styled road wheels with trim rings and DR78 tires, unique black bodyside scuff moldings, brushed silver instrument panel overlays, tachometer, gauge package, front center console and bucket seats, custom door panels with door pulls, and soft-feel steering wheel. This car is finished in Silver Frost metallic (paint code 6J) and the optional large Hornet AMX hood decal. This car has a custom upper body side stripe ending at the quarter window. The center gauge panel was included on AMXs, but this car's under dash audio system is an aftermarket accessory.
