@simbared re: ramblers not being popular. As someone who grew up in that era......I think you are half right....they usually were not popular with young well off people but I remember a lot of older people owning them....also....they were used by companies as fleet cars. When I was a kid the Boston Gas Co had mid 60s Ramblers driving all over boston and the burbs

shity vid foolish bunny rabit man. cuntry music sucks ass. and you should have more shit on the car. pooh pooh caca pee pee going poopies in your mouth.
I loved the "Rambler Marlin" from the first moment I saw one (at about 12 years old). I always thought I would eventually buy one but as the years went by it just never happened
Whereas cars have what is called a "sailpanel", the styling of the Marlin is "over the top"; the profile of the car matches the profile of the actual fish in the ocean. Other subtle fish like features can be noticed; lateral line, fins, etc. Nevertheless, even a beautiful woman might look "ugly" when viewing poorly taken photographs. But to see the car in person and to become familiar with it, the styling of the Marlin rates as a true work of art, appreciated or not for what it is. No offense?
I remeber one man had one of these cars when I was around 11 years old at the time and would see him go up the street with it. It looked futuristic at the time I rember thinking. Great song for your vid 5 stars.
nice. my family has 2 marlins at the moment, a '65 (REALLY good shape, 41,000 original miles, twin stick with 232 straight six, vibratone radio, one of 100 or less produced), a '66 (not so good shape), and we've had a '65 (was wrecked, so my dad and i took it apart) and a '67 (wasn't in real good shape, so we sold it).
When we were kids back in the late 60s/early 70s, the neighbors across the street had an AMC Rebel Machine and sometimes a black-on-pink Marlin would be parked in their driveway, too. Forgot about that til I saw this.
My 1966 Rambler Classic had a "desert only" setting on the All-Season Air Condioning to prevent freeze ups. Fast car with a AMC 327CID V-8.

Not very popular?? The Rambler was the 3rd & 4th selling car in the country for several years in the early 1960s!

I saw the prototype for this car in the early sixties. It was built on the "American" chassis, and it was called the "Tarpon."
