1975 AMC Matador

Gateway Classic Cars of San Antonio/Austin is proud to present this 1975 AMC Matador Oleg Cassini, a distinctive 1970s American classic with bold styling and a special designer-package personality. Finished in Classic Black with a black vinyl top, copper-colored accents, and Oleg Cassini badging, this Matador has a look that stands apart from the usual classic car crowd. This car is noted as one of 1,817 examples built with the Oleg Cassini Package for the 1975 model year.

Under the hood is a 360 CID V8 engine paired with a 3-speed automatic transmission. This setup gives the Matador smooth and confident cruising power with plenty of classic American V8 character. The 360 V8 was factory rated at 175 net horsepower and 285 lb-ft of torque, and the transmission is noted as having been rebuilt in 2023.

The exterior presents a sharp black-on-black appearance with copper accents on the grille and headlamp bezels, chrome bumpers and trim, body-side scuff moldings, dual side mirrors, and Oleg Cassini badging on the front fenders. Rocket Racing 15-inch wheels wrapped in Cooper Cobra Radial G/T tires add a clean performance-inspired touch while still fitting the cars vintage style.

This Matador is equipped with power steering and power brakes, making it easier to enjoy from behind the wheel. Braking is handled by power-assisted front disc brakes and rear drum brakes. Service documentation from Jerry Dixon Automotive and Klassic Kar Center notes a 110-point inspection, front brake service, rear brake service with rear wheel cylinder replacement, replacement of both front rubber brake hoses, system bleed, and resurfaced drums and rotors.

Additional documented service work includes a carburetor rebuild, fuel filter replacement, new battery cables, coolant hose replacement, motor mount replacement, pinion seal replacement, differential service and gasket replacement, transmission service with filter and pan gasket replacement, transmission output shaft seal replacement, wiring repair at the solenoid, exhaust donut gasket replacement, valve cover gasket replacement, thermostat and gasket replacement, oil and filter service, power steering fluid flush, and hood release cable replacement. The driveshaft was also addressed with rear U-joint replacement and repair of a broken rear yoke.

Inside, the Oleg Cassini Package gives this Matador a truly unique cabin. The black interior features copper-colored accents, copper carpeting, reclining front seats, copper buttons, Cassini crest embroidery on the front headrests, custom sun visors, and Oleg Cassini markings on the glovebox door. Additional features include air conditioning, cruise control, an AM radio, and courtesy lighting, giving this AMC a comfortable and stylish 1970s feel.

Adding even more personality to the package, this Matador also comes with Oleg Cassini-themed items, including a watch, shirt, and leather jacket. These extras help tie the car back to its unique designer-edition story and make it an even more interesting piece of 1970s automotive history.
