The Rambler American is a compact car that was manufactured by the American Motors Corporation (AMC) between 1958 and 1969.

The standard engine was the 155 hp (116 kW; 157 PS) 232 cu in (3.8 L) I6 with two-barrel carburetor from 1967 through 1969, even though the Rambler Classic SST had the option of VAM's own 252 cu in (4.1 L) I6 early in 1969, which became standard equipment several months late in the year.

1961 Rambler Classic Cross Country. The new 1961 Classic 6 and V8 models went on display in Rambler showrooms on 12 October 1960.

The rectangular "Rambler" rear emblem was removed and its place was taken by the manuscript "Rally" unit that was no longer on the front fenders. The 1974 Rallys were mostly unchanged from the 1973s.
