This is Bill Bowman’s personal1957 Rambler Custom V8. He and Grimes Jr. drove it to Daytona Beach for Speedweek in February 1957. It is the car that was mentioned in the April 1957 Motor Trend article by Joe Wherry, “Rambler Rebel, drivescription” on page 27. Mr. Wherry drove and was quite impressed with the performance of the car with it’s 327 engine that Bill and Grimes installed. This car later received a Nash Healey floor shift unit.
