I missed this the last time it was for sale. I ummed and ahhed thinking it was too odd, and its manual, and its only a 6 cyl. But now its up for sale again and at a sensible price. I've heard of a very cool trick for building AMC staright 6s so I'm nopt so dead against it this time. Plus I can drive a manual if I have to I guess.... I *know* its a pointless thing to do, and I have a perfectly good driver, and all, and MartinC's Caddy is probably a better replacement as it has LPG if I was going to go do something daft like that but.... I am like some kind of retrolusting butterfly.

Lets clear up car terms: "Understeer" is when you hit the fence with the front of the car. "Oversteer" is when you hit the fence with the rear of the car. "Horsepower" is how fast you hit the fence. "Torque" is how far you take the fence with you.

looks a bit small to me, ... That's exactly why I like it though. A few of those early/mid sixties yanks weren't too huge. Please buy it AK so that when you come to sell I can try and be at the right place at the right time

Bet you that'd be nice to smoke about in. I do like those old sixes and with a manual it'll probably be quite engaging to drive Could be entertaining! Hell, if you don't like it I'm sure you could always sell it on without loosing anything....

It's always been a grumpy little old man's car here.
Now a Hurst Rambler, that's a horse of a different feather, to paraphrase Yogi Berra.

SCRambler and all that. Same panelwork. Now some red white & blue paint, some blue painted Magnum 500s and the "illusion" is complete. Wants a 401 up it but realisticly, the 6 pot will be better on fuel.
