Fun Facts
- The Rambler helped pioneer safer braking. In 1962, American Motors equipped its cars with dual-circuit master cylinders, a safety feature that separated the braking system into two hydraulic circuits. Hemmings notes that GM did not adopt the feature across its cars until several years later.
- AMC entered the pony-car race with the Javelin in 1968. The AMC Javelin was introduced as AMC’s answer to the growing pony-car market. Buyers could get it with engines ranging from a 232-cubic-inch six-cylinder to a 390-cubic-inch V8, with the available Go Package adding performance equipment such as front disc brakes and dual exhaust.
- AMC squeezed a huge V8 into a very small car. The 1969 SC/Rambler paired the compact Rambler American body with a 390-cubic-inch V8 producing 315 horsepower. AMC and Hurst built only 1,512 examples, making it an especially unusual muscle car of the era.
