supcoach ◊ 2014-10-13 00:36	Yes you are correct... These cars, manufactured in the USA by American Motors, were imported in CKD (Completely Knocked Down) kit form and assembled locally by Australian Motor Industries, in right hand drive form. They were imported in very limited numbers and are one of Australia's rarest muscle cars. They were sold in Australia under the Rambler brand and were the only American muscle cars of that era to be sold new in Australia.
