I've been restoring a 62 ad 63 rambler with/for a friend of mine. Will post pics later. Not sure if thats waht your interested in at all or if your talking about older ones mostly?

 

SOME RAMBLERS I FOUND

 

YOU DONT SEE MANY AT CAR SHOWS I LOVE THEM THEY MAKE NICE RAT RODS.

 

Rebstew187 is building one of the slightly larger Nashes for his wife, plans are nice and low with a 4.3 - not much room for a V8. How exactly does a car make a good rat rod?

 

Ramblers are NOT hot rods!

Please......

Tell that to the guy in the Cadillac...

And just think, that was only in 2nd gear.

 

Beep Beep!

 

OK you asked for it......The Pharaoh...full Kustom pick up....probably the most rad Kustom Pick up in the UK....Hand fabbed roof, fins, canted lights etc.....and up till a couple of weeks ago my daily driver..


so practical you can even carry a (very small) Rod...My son's



and this would be a fantastic pic if it wasn't for the random bloke and kid in the background and if I hadn't just bust a halfshaft..

 

how you gonna transport jaspers rod now its gone

 

I'm sure somebody can remember this one better than I can:
"chopped nash" by Mr. gasser and the wierdos 1963

I was making the boneyard one saturday morn
on the trail of a gasser a little bit worn
I eyeballed an ugly that looked kinda sad
lying next to the doghouse at the junkies old pad.

Chop-ditty chop chop
chop-ditty chop chop
.
.

We tore out the floor to make room for a beast
a real wheely stander for 50 at least

a hole lot of chopping went on that night
a cootch or winfield would have died of fright
we chopped the shell for added appeal
lead was flying all over the place
the body was shaping up and ready to race

Chop-ditty chop chop
chop-ditty chop chop

I came off of the line screaming with might
but the nash was low it went under the light

Chop-ditty chop chop
chop-ditty chop chop

the only trouble with my little chopped nash
was like man, most of that ramble,
was laying back home in the trash

 

the A has a tow bar...looks like it's gona go in the caravan or i'll get hassled in to building a trailer!!

 

I was looking for pictures of the one that John buttera (spelling?) built years ago just the other day but I couldn't find it. I thought it was in one of my Dare to be Different issues. If I remember correctly it was white and pink or maybe that salmon color. I believed it was pro-streeted. I haven't seen it since I been a kid but that car got me watching for other of John's cars in magazines. Now I'm going to have to dig thru my boxes of magazines in my shop because I exhausted all boxes that are in the house.

 

i can picture it...your gonna look like one of them big lorry trains that head over the out back in OZ...

oh and while i`m replying can the geezer who started this turn off your fucking cap locks....this post is 6 foot wide

 

Here's an older photo of my 60 Rambler and I in the middle of the Desert....

 

talk to me big boy, i wanna know more about your old 68 amellican....
looks like it needs rings
i've got a 69 2dr post and a 67 HT .....

 

My hopped up Rambler (Eagle 4wd) family car towed this Nash descendant to the track where I raced the "Nash" all the way into the Final Four shootout by beating quite a few big block cars along the way.

Rambler engines all the way.
I sure had a lot of fun.

 

Here's a real cool one for sale in the classifieds...

The pictures don't do it justice - the paint (color and finish) are amazing - love the color!

 

An image I found on the internet.

One of these days...

 

that's the coolest looking wagon i've ever seen... if it was just clear coated so everybody could see the steel, it'd be perfect

 

Love the little 2dr. wagons, particullarly the yellow gasser style one. Those were unitbody's, correct?

 

Yes, Nash was a pioneer in unit construction.

Heres how ours will look (I hope). My son Jake is 16 and he and I want to have this done by spring.

 

yeah ... rings ... LOL

Took me two years to buld that heap. Ended up putting a 406 chevy in it with a 350 trans and ford 8.8 rear. PM if you want exact details of everything so as not to bog down the thread ...
