340 horsepower 390 cubic inch engine mated to a Borg-Warner T10 4 speed with Hurst shifter and either 3.54:1 or 3.91:1 rear axle . . . looks beautiful to me.
The paint scheme is a bit, um, “unique”, but it really is one of the rarest of all 'merican muscle cars and prices for fine examples reflect it 
Should’a gone to SPECSAVERS!

I like it too, including the colour scheme.

Bloody Palestines 
I’m always amazed at how few horses come from such huge cubes.
AMC dealers sold a “service pack” of add on goodies that boosted horsepower to over 400 
From a 6.4L engine!!
It’s not very hard to get 100BHP per litre from a normally aspirated petrol…even from a diesel (turbo)
Edit…Lots of torque though
You have to drive these beasts to understand. My old Bentley only got about 250 bhp from 6.75 litres, but it got 250 bhp all the time. No power band, no lag - it just pulled like a train from tickover. That’s why a three-speed gearbox is plenty - in reality you seldom need the bottom two.
