Just a few years before these Ramblers, there was a fast Rambler available...

"Although AMC was best known for their reliable economy cars, this special model came with a bigger engine than anything found at Chevrolet, Ford, or Plymouth—the Rambler's most popular competitors at that time. The Rebel's US$2,786 MSRP base price ($26,880 in 2021 dollars [10]) was economical for the amount of power provided. It was the fastest stock American sedan, according to Motor Trend.[7]" (Wikkipedia). This was the 1957 Rambler Rebel with an AMC 327c.i. engine and a 3 speed manual with overdrive or a 4 speed automatic. Underrated at 255hp (very decent for the time).
