AMC had there Super car too ( I guess )
 
Looks like Randall AMC in Arizonia made about 20 401-XR Gremlins with permission from AMC. Low 12 Second cars could be had for about $3000.00 !!! www.gremlinx.com/RandallXR.htm https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif

Great story, a rare "Super Car" to say the least, as a 304 4banger Gremlin X with just headers was quite the screamer. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif

We had an AMC dealer in the Vancouver area who put out 10 - 15 of those little screamers. I think they were in Haney, just down the road from Musallem Motor Products, who sponsored Buck Kinney's 454 Chevelle ragtop.
Here's a photo I took in 1975 at Boundary Bay Raceway.

What do you mean, "With permission"? Did Baldwin Chevrolet need GM's permission? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif

My friend in MI owns one of these "Randall Ramblers". https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Hey Diego,you must be referring to Dan Jensen. I have seen his Randell AMC.

My brother had a Gremlin with a 304 4 speed back in the mid 70's. I thought he was weird until I took it for a ride. It was a handful.

Yep, All AMC's are pretty underrated in my opinion! Quick cars! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif
