Description:
It's a little close, but I like this shot. This is the 1963 AMC Rambler 550 sedan I'll be looking at tomorrow. 196 straight six, three on the tree, 58,000 actual miles. |

#2, No, you've got it right. That was the normal mount for manual shifters back in the day: floor shifts were considered impractical for cars with bench seats.

I've only drove something with a three on the tree once, and it was a bitch to get used too. of course at the time I wasn't very good with manuals, so that didn't help any

I'm the same way right now. One of the reasons I'm interested in this car....apart from the near-flawless condition and the low price and the fact that it's relatively close to here....is that it has a manual and I'm a bit rusty with them.

my dad had a '68 chevy pickup in the 80s that he used for hauling wood... I still remember him shifting through the gears on the column.... 3-on the tree

#7, i understand four on the floor, but what would you say if this car had a 3-speed auto tranny on the column?

This puppy is now sitting pretty in my driveway....after I drove it nearly 100 miles home down the interstate in the pouring rain with no wipers. >_< How I managed that is an adventure in itself. I swear, the wipers worked on one stroke as I pulled out of the guy's driveway, then just stopped.
But it runs great, looks incredible (there are a few things: the rear bumper is a little bent, there are dings in the grille, the passenger's sunvisor is absent, etc.), and rides as smooth as Grey Goose. I'm going to have a lot of fun with it....after it stops raining.

NICE! My parents used to have a Rambler. 69 I think it was. Was their first car after getting married.

"HAHAHAHA, why don't you junk this old POS. Old fuckin' grandma car. My Sunfire could school your car to shit in a race."

#18, The I6 made 127 hp with a single barrell and 138 with a 2 barrell. I'm not sure which mine is; I'll have to check.
