The second generation Javelin was restyled for the 1971 model year and followed the pony car segment trend to bigger, beefier vehicles. Three models were available: the base Javelin, SST and AMX. The new Javelin AMX incorporated several racing modifications, and AMC advertised it as the closest thing to a production race car. The car had a fiberglass full width cowl induction hood, as well as spoilers front and rear for high speed traction. The Javelin won the Trans Am race series in 1971.
