Gives me a second excuse to pull my cylinder head, and clean it up (the 200,000 mile lifters being the first), if I only had access to sandblasting equipment. Looks brand new :D

NO , the machine was a bigger size, I think based on the Matador.That looks more like a "Scrambler" size based on the smaller 2 door Rambler.

That stars and stripes car is my 1965 Rambler American Hardtop 440H.
It is not a SC/Rambler or Rogue. There is a 360 under hood and 727 auto gearbox.

I´m trying to get my Photobucket OK, but it takes some time...
