Renoylds, At one time I owned Amc's Rebel "The Machine", The owners manual claimed 14 second quarter mile times, which the car would do. Lets also not forget the AMX with the GO PACK in 1969.

Marlin, the "Rebel Machine" you linked to is another rare color as most were Red/White/Blue, the one pictured has an incorrect standard Rebel grille as with or without the patriotic color scheme the grille lacked the center T-bars. If they were white the R/W/B was included in the grille as well as the center armrest. I am adding a link to a photo from an original ad, the marketing was a kick as one phrase states, "For instance, it is not as fast on the getaway as a 427 Corvette, or a Hemi, but it is faster on the getaway than a Volkswagen, a slow freight train, and your old mans Cadillac." It seems I remember this was possibly another Hurst prepared car, or it may have been its predecessor, the Rambler Scrambler from 1969. Ohhh....the memories of Detroit that leave a odd legacy.

Belair, Are you interested in one of the rebel "Machines"? I know where two are that could be bought, one traditional red/white/blue. Rough needing complete resto but complete #s matching, and another with the rare copper color that is a solid southern car with frame on at home resto but #s matching. I believe they could both be had reasonable, depending on the mood of the owners that day. I sold one last year on Ebay, body only X-race car, only had 6700 actual miles,(1/4 at a time) nice original body though, brought $5500.00. Let me know if you want a rambler in your garage and I will go shoot a pic of the white one,(sitting next to a garage for 10 years) and forward it to you with owners #. Motown.

Slow down..I only said they were scarce !!! I didn't say I wanted to breed a new strain !!! Seriously....nice looking cars...the blue one Marlin posted is neat...they are really a good looking car in the 3/4 rear view. Was the r/w/b paint scheme similar to the SC/Rambler ?
