1970 American Motors Rebel Machine
The 1970 American Motors Rebel Machine was introduced in late 1969
as a drag racing machine. Built between a conjunction betwen Hurst
and AMC (simliar to the SC/Rambler)
it featured a powerful motor and stunning red, white, and blue body
treatment.
The powertrain of the Rebel Machine was a 340hp 390cid V8 engine
which was mated to a close ratio four speed transmission. The power
made its way to the ground through a beefed rear end with 3.54 or
3.91 gears and featured a heavy duty suspension. Styled 15 inch
wheels and raised white letter tires complimented with disc brakes
made for a very handling vehicle despite a 3600 pound curb weight.
The first 100 cars produced featured the wild paint styling featured
above. Future Machines came in optional regular production colors
but includes a body stripe and blacked out hood treatment. "The
Machine" decals were attached on the front fenders and the
rear trim panel.
