Re: [Amc-list] Scrambler clone on ebay

Back in the mid 70's when I lived in Santa Clara, CA, I had 3 SC/Ramblers
up for sale. I advertised them in the San Jose & San Francisco papers,
asking $3000ea, your choice of which one you wanted. They were all fairly
low mileage cars, no rust, running perfectly, etc. No sales! Bet some
people wish they would of bought one  now!!!
