Re: more PICS from columbus...
 

Thanks for the pics Tom.If you don't know ramblers you wouldn't know the significance of the weight sticker picture.

Re: more PICS from columbus...
 

Ed you are such a tease. I am no AMC pro or amateur for that matter, but I know a guy that had a couple scramblers and they were 390 4 speed cars. Is the hood scoop an appearance package of some sort? I would not have guessed that car to weigh 3100 either. What does your AMC wisdom tell you? LOL

Re: more PICS from columbus...
 

Jim,the scoop was an SC/Rambler only functional ram air piece.At least the front fender now has an American script.And the sticker isn't correct either.It should read 225/210.The weight is correct for a 14 lb.
break.But what do I know?LOL

Re: more PICS from columbus...
 

37 years of AMC experience and I've never seen or found documentation of any such car. .......I would'nt doubt some dealer would'nt have put a SC scoop on a car as a sales ploy back in the day tho! ..........Tom

Re: more PICS from columbus...
 

Looks like it would fit on my Nova. I wonder if... never mind. LOL.

Re: more PICS from columbus...
 

That Rambler dosen't say Shelby on it somewhere????????

Hammer

Re: more PICS from columbus...
 

Who was doing the Tech Inspection on these cars? The only Ramblers offered with a Hood Scoop like the one shown, was the Hurst inspired "Scrambler", which was equipped with the 390 cu. in. engine. The weight sticker is the same as my IHRA SS and Garrett Ghezzi's NHRA SS/MA AMX. Garrett appealed to the horsepower gurus at NHRA to reduce the HP from 225 to 210 for SS, and prevailed. IHRA generally follows suit and did so in this case also. Where is Travis Miller?

Re: more PICS from columbus...
 

Travis was at this race, he didn't give this car a second look as he went by from my vantage point. I must say it's the first one I've seen although that doesn't mean much. Joe

Re: more PICS from columbus...
 

Lots of really nice cars! I love that red 62 Plymouth, very cool. Thanks Tom.

Re: more PICS from columbus...

Re: more PICS from columbus...

Re: more PICS from columbus...
 

Hey Dave! I would like to come to VMP, but, I have a N/SS race 30 miles from home on the 10th. I am liking these low 10 second E.T.'s. Maybe a 9.99 at Cecil in a couple weeks.

Re: more PICS from columbus...
 

Fast Johnny,


Good Luck @ Atco and your Cecil Race ...........
