Default Thanx 12bolt Great lead

Just wanted to thank 12bolt for a great lead. I put a post in the "auto's wanted" section for a project SC/Rambler. Dave's lead not only brought me to a great project SC/Rambler, but I ended up getting a "Rebel Machine" as well from a great guy Rick in Aston, PA. Thanx guys. Made a donation to SYC as well. Great site. Sent pic's to Belair if he can post them.

Two underated cars that really ran well. I remember both in the old days. Jim Bowie Rambler Conchohocken, Pa. He had them.

those are 2 cools cars..

I've got a video of a stock s/c running 14 flat and another out on the highway getting every which way but straight thru 3 gears. Pretty impressive power to say the least.

I remember in the mid 1970's we had a "Rebel Machine" in my neighborhood. The car would go sideways from first gear to third gear. It was a beast! Good luck with the cars.

Thanx for all the kudo's guys. The Rebel Machine originated from Illinois as far as I could tell. 390, 4 spd, original 25A paint which means it was one of the 1000 produced in the patriotic red white and blue theme for 1970. Needs some work, mostly cosmetic. The SC/Rambler originated in Aston, PA, made a large circle coming back to the Aston area 35 years later, after several races, engines and owners. The guy I purchased (both of them from) remembered the SC/Rambler new at the dealership and still knows most of the owners. I'll redo this puppy up as original as I can, but the parts are a bear locating. I took one of these down the track in California while in the service back in the early 70's -- amazingly fast

Nice find... glad everything worked out.
I do not know much about these cars...
Best of luck with the two new additions!

Donutblue, here's a link that might be helpful:
http://www.planethoustonamx.com/just%20s..._swap_meets.htm
Also, the Mopar Nationals include AMC cars.
Come to Ohio for the AMC Nats in Dayton.
You should get plenty of help from these guys, as they are true brand fanantics.
When they had the Nats in Columbus a few years ago, I saw a concourse resto of a base, no option Gremlin. That is true love. (Easier to find parts, maybe ).
If nothing else, the Air Force Museum is awesome, and free!
