The youthful influence on today's production vehicle styling prompted 
George Barris to create the ultimate along these lines- "THE AMERICAN 
MOTORS AMX '70-400". The first major modification was to lower the 
overall silhouette by chopping the top section and slanting the 
windshield posts. To further the extreme fastback image, long tapering 
wind splits in the rear were lowered 10 inches. Between the windsplits 
are streamlined louvers extending from the roof line to the lower 
panel. A courtesy/safety lighting system was installed utilizing the 
louvers, with red talilight and stop lights, amber lights for 
deceleration and caution and a green light for forward motion. The 
AMX-400 frontal area was lengthened fifteen inches with a matching 
lower pan and louvered grille installation. The rear fenders were also 
extended to follow the streamlined windsplits. The hood has twin-
tunnel forced-air scoops moulded into the hood panel. Saddle antique 
and walnut was used as the color combination in the interior.
