  AMC Rebel Machine - Modern Racer - Modern Classics
AMC's first answer to the epoch-changing Ford Mustang was the Marlin, an oddly attractive six-passenger sporty car that was much too big and lumbering to compete effectively in the pony car wars.
Additionally, AMC did beef up the suspension, which was utterly conventional circa 1970 -- control arms and coil springs up front assisted by an anti-sway bar, while at the rear was a live axle spring again with coils and another anti-sway bar.
Just 2,000 Rebel Machines rolled out of AM showrooms in the 1970 model year, but that's not surprising since, by the time it debuted, American Motors was already preparing the Matador that would take its place.

 The Rambler Years
AMC embarked on a consolidation program that enabled it to build three lines of cars -- American, Classic, and Ambassador -- on variations of the same solid, reliable platform.
After AMC's visionary leader, George Romney, resigned to become governor of Michigan, his successor reversed course and tried to turn the company into a full-line imitation of the Big 3.
AMC cars grew larger and the company's image grew less distinct, a problem exacerbated by the competition's move into the compact and intermediate market segments that Rambler had pioneered.

AMC turned to Hurst Performance Research Inc., and created the SC/Rambler (often nicknamed "Scrambler"), which debuted in the middle of the 1969 model year.
Comments: AMC followed the success of its 1969 SC/Rambler with a new model for 1970, the Rebel "Machine." The original concept of the "Machine" was of a basic fl midsize coupe with fl wheels, fat tires, and no stripes, scoops, or spoilers.

 AMC Antique, Vintage and Classic Cars For Sale
AMC is generally thought of as the brand used for all American Motors passenger cars following the demise of Rambler, but the names "American Motors" and "AMC" seem to have been used interchangeably in corporate literature and on the cars themselves well into the 1980s.
Because AMC's profitable AM General subsidiary was a major defense contractor, American Motors was forced to sell the business as Renault increased its ownership of AMC, since the US government would not allow a foreign government to own a significant portion of an important defense supplier.
AMC's technologically advanced Bramalea Assembly and Stamping Plants in Ontario (recently completed at the the time of the Chrysler takeover) are still active, and now produce the best-selling LX-cars - the Dodge Charger, Dodge Magnum, and the Chrysler 300.

 Howstuffworks "AMC Muscle Cars: A Profile of a Carmaker"
The very existence of AMC muscle cars such as the AMX, Hurst SC/Rambler, and Rebel "Machine" was evidence of how thoroughly muscle car fever swept the nation in the 1960s and early '70s.
AMC may have been late to the staging lanes, but it produced an impressive array of performance cars in a relatively short time.
The first stirrings of AMC performance came in 1965, when the dramatic if ungainly Rambler Marlin fastback was introduced to battle the Ford Mustang and Plymouth Barracuda.

In addition, the Rebel was powered by the new 343 cid V-8 engine, which was over one hundred pounds lighter than its predecessor, the popular 327 cid V-8.

 Pete Harrison's 1970 AMC Rebel - Story copyright 2001 by Richard Truesdell
AMC is a legitimate part of what is now called the American heritage of DaimlerChrysler.
AMC vehicles are now on display in the W. Chrysler Museum and like storied nameplates like De Soto and now Plymouth, the AMC headstone is neatly sandwiched between them in the graveyard of departed DCX nameplates, never to again see daylight.
With 430 foot pounds or torque, it could move the 3905-pound Machine (cited in Illustrated AMC Buyer’s Guide) from 0 to 60 in under 6.8 seconds and could cover the quarter mile in 14.49 seconds with a trap speed of 93 miles per hour according to the February 1970 issue of Hot Rod.
