AMC Concord Parts & Accessories

The AMC Concord was American Motors' premium compact from 1978 to 1983, sharing its platform with the AMC Spirit and positioned as a luxurious alternative to European imports. Available as a two-door hatchback, four-door sedan, and station wagon, the Concord was offered with a 232 cubic-inch inline-six or the 304 cubic-inch V8, both paired with three-speed automatic or four-speed manual transmissions. Its well-appointed interior, wood-grain trim, and available leather seating made it stand out among domestic compacts of the era.

Popular Upgrades

Concord owners most frequently source exhaust components, carburetor rebuild kits, ignition tune-up parts, and front suspension refresh kits. Popular performance upgrades include electronic ignition conversions for the inline-six, performance exhaust headers, and polyurethane front control arm bushings that sharpen handling without requiring major modifications.

What drivetrain options did the AMC Concord offer?

The Concord came standard with AMC's 232 cubic-inch inline-six producing around 90 horsepower. The optional 304 V8 added more torque for highway driving and towing. Transmission choices included a three-speed Torque-Command automatic and a four-speed manual, with the automatic being the more common choice on luxury-trimmed models.

Is the AMC Concord related to other AMC models?

Yes. The Concord shares its AMC-1 platform with the Spirit two-door and the AMC Eagle four-wheel-drive wagon. Many suspension and drivetrain parts interchange between these models, making sourcing easier. The Concord's front subframe and rear axle are also shared with the Gremlin and Hornet, expanding the parts pool further.
