One of the cars that caught my eye at this years SEMA show was this AMC Javelin done up like a vintage Trans-Am racer. There was no information about who brought the car, but the paper plate was from American Performance Products who is the leading parts supplier for AMC restorers. While AMC hasn’t been around for nearly 30 years, this Javelin is super cool and real or reproduction it has that aged to perfection look.
