(Nolt also campaigned an AMX before the Hurst program) I talked to
Ross Gilbert and he told me heand another guy drove to Michigan
to pick up this car. When he got there he was given the car number
(40) and they had to go to the warehouse with the trailer to pick up
the car and trailer it back to Nolt. He liked the car but not the shifter,
and requested they buy a new shifter for the car. Joe Nolt refused
so Gilbert left. John Mylins owned a local speed shop and then
drove the car for Nolt. Nolt Rambler stayed in business until after
1988 when Chrysler bought them out. The Chrysler/Jeep brand is
now known as Brubaker Chrysler/Jeep in Lancaster. The original
site of Nolt Rambler was torn down and the property is now a
pharmacy and Turkey Hill convenience store and gas station.

From Mike Pinto on Theamcforum.com:
" thought I'd share my conversation today about S/S AMX's
with my grandfather (Ray Pinto). All of this was years ago,
probably late 70's. Regarding the AMX Magic, the car was
called Mighty Mite when he bought it and was less engine
and trans for $2500. It had a Dana rear and was generally 
used up. He bought a second AMX around the same time
which was a 68 "S/S Clone". It had all of the right parts but
68 door panels. He couldn't remember the VIN but he is
going to look for the paperwork. Anyways, this "clone"
donated it's engine, trans, etc to the Magic. He had Mike Therber 
paint the car, which took over 6 months. It had to
be basecoated in silver and gold and then sprayed with real
Kandy paint, in red, orange, and maroon. The car ended up
with 6 total colors and looked amazing. He raced it for quite
a few years but ended building a back-halfed car (The
Ramblin Nash, a Silver AMX) and sold of the Magic to
Scandinavia, which was well into the late 80's, possibly
early 90's. He had the car somewhere between 10-20
years? The "clone" was trashed bodywise and was crushed eventually."
