13. The Rarest Muscle Car You May Never Have Heard Of
The year was 1971 and the muscle car boom was beginning to wane. Insurance companies and emission protocol had essentially put a clamp on legal hot rods. That’s why the 1971 AMC “Machine Go” Matador only existed in that year and that year alone. The Machine Go was a special offering from AMC that allowed the consumer to spec out their vehicle to certain standards. It is estimated that as few as 55 of these 1971 AMC Machine Go Matador’s ever existed. No one knows how many are left today, but the number is likely no more than a handful.
