Mid engine supercars from my favorite era..... (many pics)

Ben Lampson · 2022-04-06T17:19:27Z

These models were all very hard to find. I did not purchase them when they were new and available, so the hunt was on. My 2 favorite are the 426 Hemi stuffed Monteverdi Hai 450 SS and the AMC AMX/3, but I do like them all. The AMC AMX/3 was a project by AMC to directly compete with the Pantera (also pictured here) but the project was halted after only 6 cars were built, but some not fully assembled. Click on images for the best clarity. Here are pictures of the interior of the Monteverdi Hai, showing how massive that 426 Hemi looked sitting in between the driver and passenger seats. I don't know of any other car that the doghouse of the bigblock motor is where an armrest should be! I would love to own this car.
