Vehicle Description
AMC took the mild-mannered Rambler and turned it into a drag racing
superhero, and this 1969 AMC Hurst SC/Rambler tribute car honors
all the best of that. With it bold paint package, Hurst
four-on-the-floor, and a big V8 under the hood, this has the power
and poise of a proper street-eating machine.
The Hurst cars were patriotic, and their spirit was unmissable. The
huge red streak down both sides instantly announce the performance
intentions. And the blue stripe is literally over-the-top, and you
know that you just love how it points to the big hood scoop with
callout. So while these were painted white, it really has enough
stripping to have a tri-tone appearance. And this tribute gets the
appearance right with everything from the pinstriping surrounding
all the stripes, to the correct Hurst badges. You even have a
proper set of polished Weld Racing wheels.
Inside, the blue interior has the right look for an S/C. Plus, this
is truly built to be a drag machine. That means shedding all the
weight you can for the sake of speed: a clean dash, rubber floor
mats, and minimal options. It all has a clean look where start is
also attractive. Plus, you have all the right driver-oriented
features, like a grippy wood-rimmed steering wheel, column-mounted
SunPro Super Tach, and of course, a Hurst shifter on the floor.
The star of this car is the motor, and so they made sure it was
ready to show off. This is an ultra-tidy setup where you can see
terrific details, like the turquoise block paint, bright Molidin
valve covers, and shining air topper. In fact, there was a $1,500
investment in recent engine work to keep it looking and performing
its best. More than just look awesome, the power is awesome, too.
You have an AMC 360 cubic-inch V8 that has been upgraded with an
Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor and Edelbrock intake. Plus, long
tube headers add to the power while also contributing to the
thunder of the dual exhaust. The four-speed manual transmission
keeps you in firm control of this drag machine. Plus, traction bars
and meaty rear tires keep the rubber planted to the road.
The sale also comes with the maintenance records and owner's
manual. This is a very cool tribute to one of the boldest
quarter-mile cars ever made. Don't miss your chance, call
today!!!
