1963 AMC Rambler Classic

[63RamblerClassic]

Big milestone for the Ramblur project this weekend; the car left UTP Racecars to head to the final wiring and assembly location.

Started on the engine harness this weekend as well.

Here are some pics of the Ramblur in its glory sitting on the ground:

Here is the current weight.

Keep in mind the car does not have a fuel tank installed, battery, fuel lines, brake lines, carpet/dynamat, nor fluids. Should be close to 3000 when all is said and done with a 54/46 weight distribution.

I love this car!

Dynamat makes a huge difference!

The Ramblur will be at Goodguys Columbus, albeit transported by trailer because it is not running yet. Stop by and say hello if you see it.

Incredible car!

[Godbolt]

Any progress?

[63RamblerClassic]

Sorry about the lapse in updates! There was a big lull in the project, and it has been sitting dormant for over three months. A big commitment was broken by the current shop and that is the reason why I am transferring shops currently. The Ramblur is going to get finished by a shop in Alma, Michigan called Republic Metal Works. Look for updates coming soon as they will be working on the car immediately when it is dropped off the first week in January!

Looks Incredible! Just the right mix of smooth, subtle, show and go.

Beautiful car, if not for the wheels you would think it was a nicely restored, stock Rambler.

[63RamblerClassic]

Thanks guys. Should be ready to roll for Hot Rod Power Tour 2017!

It looks great! I can't wait to see it out.

Loving the work that Republic Metal Works is doing on the car. They have already done more in the last two weeks than the previous place in 5 months.

A small rust hole in the firewall has been repaired (looks factory). The cowl trough has been replaced. The Vintage Air Unit is mounted in place and several custom-fabbed mounts were made. The customer wiper motor setup is mocked up and ready to be powered up. Wiring is in process.

Excited to see this thing on the road in the spring!

I love this car, an oddball like mine just way cleaner. Keep up the great work.
