I bought my SC's in March of 1991 from a fellow
in Arizona. I purchased
a '68 AMX from him in '89, and at that time he
told me he had two SC's,
but they weren't for sale. I told him to contact
me if he ever decided
to sell them, two years later, he calls and asks
if I still want the
cars. Dumb question!
Two months later the son and I take the one that
runs to the drag strip.
After six passes, the son, revs it a little to
high and all you see is
blue smoke. After a few weeks of wrenching on
it I decide to restore it
and build it for Pure Stock Drag Racing.
Fast forward to '94 and we're at Mid Michigan
Motorplex with Muscle Cars
from all parts of the USA and Canada. If you like
stock Muscle Cars, you
should really make this event a must see. Anyway
I was paired against a
GTO and won in the first two races. Best et was
13.9 @ 101 mph, not to
bad for a stock 390 with a 3:54 gear on Red Line
tires. Three weeks
later we enter it in a car show and bring home
the trophy. I'm very
happy with my SC/Rambler and hope to enjoy it
for years to come.

PS... I think this registry is a GREAT idea and
wish it lots of success! |
