Pete Phillips Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 (edited) I have a rolling parts car, 1964 Rambler American 440 convertible, with the 196 overhead valve 6-cylinder engine, automatic on the column, factory A/C, odometer shows around 80,000 miles I think; engine will run if gas is put into the carburetor. Car is missing some parts but could be restored if these parts are found: seats missing, top is missing but the top bows and frame are there; I took the gas tank to use on my nicer car; wheel covers are missing; spare tire & jack are missing; and the elusive hood emblem is of course missing. This convertible has most of its original black paint but would need a repaint. There is minor rust in both rear quarters and a 2-inch by 1/2-inch hole in the floor, but other than that, the car is very, very solid. Windshield has a crack and there are a couple of light dents here and there, but not bad. I will sell the car for $700 as is, or else it will be parted out.Pete PhillipsSherman, Texaspphillips922@earthlink.net Edited October 22, 2009 by Pete Phillips add photos (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pacerman Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 If the rear quarter panels are solid, there will be demand for them. There not even any repro patch panels available for the quarters so save them if you can. Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Phillips Posted March 16, 2011 Author Share Posted March 16, 2011 Still available, but I have a guy who wants the factory A/C setup (hasn't paid yet). Lots of talk on this car and its parts, but I haven't seen any $$$ yet.Pete Phillips Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
