An AMC Rambler from 1969 that’s covered in dust and grime is up for sale at a suspiciously low price.

The famous vehicle has a handful of strange details that makes experts question how genuine it is[/caption]
Seemingly parked for more than 40 years and covered in a thick layer of dust, the vehicle is sold as a ‘1969 AMC Rambler’ – although the experts at Auto Evolution question how genuine it really is.
They note that the Facebook Marketplace ad doesn’t mention any association with the Hurst Performance, with many of the other details being “contradictory”.
While it does have the correct hood pins, scoop, and ‘390’ badges on the front fenders, the paint scheme is off.
What’s more, certain engine details seem out of place, including the air filter and the valve covers.
Located in Pleasant Hill, Missouri, the seller wants just $17,000 for vehicle, which certainly appears to be a ‘B scheme’ Rambler – one of only 297 produced.
According to Classic, an SC/Rambler can sell for around $56k – with top tier examples selling for over $90k.
The iconic Rambler, which was introduced in 1950 and became a stand-alone brand in 1955, remained in production through to 1969.
Other than being a fuel-efficient vehicle with impressive cabin room, the model is mostly remembered by gearheads for its performance iteration.
The SC/Rambler, which was produced in collaboration with Hurst Performance, was developed for the NHRA F/Stock class.
The 315 horsepower machine was equipped with front disc brakes, a heavy-duty sway bar, and a strengthened suspension, and was also very lightweight.
It is also known for its patriotic livery, with AMC producing a colorful ‘A scheme’ car and a more subdued ‘B scheme’ version, with 1,512 cars produced in total.
Auto Evolution believe the car features designs from both versions of the car, and while it could simply be a repainted model, it’s certainly a mystery.
This comes as drivers can pick up “supercar after supercar” as thousands of luxury vehicles are being auctioned off from a vast car graveyard.
Around 17,000 cars have found their way onto lots in Florida following hurricanes Helene and Milton.
The twin storms, which brought winds in excess of 140mph and torrential rain, forced thousands to evacuate their homes.
Many left behind their cars, which then fell victim to floodwaters, leaving them written-off.
Drivers have been warned about dodgy dealers drying these cars off and selling them on at a massive profit, leaving them to pick up the repair bills.
And elsewhere, a rare Porsche sports car that has “never been driven” has hit auction for a whopping $3.4 million.
The breathtaking car could “hardly offer a better opportunity” to enthusiasts to own a pristine example, according to the listing.
