Download Catalog OUR MISSION Metropolitan Pit Stop was founded in 1975 to establish the world’s finest parts and repair company for Metropolitans. We pride ourselves on being able to offer you a complete selection of the finest quality parts to replace any of the 14,726 parts that Metropolitans are made of. Considerable research and expense has gone into retooling and remanufacturing many Metropolitan parts to their original specifications. Whenever possible, we’ve made improvements over the original parts by using thicker gauge metal, better plating and updated rubber and plastic formulations. Be confident our parts put inside/outside/underneath a Met will fit + look + work right and are safe and reliable. With your continued support and input, we intend to fulfill your every Metropolitan need. PARTS Parts listed in this catalog are new unless otherwise indicated. Rebuilt parts are sold “exchange”. Part(s) to be exchanged must be received with your order or a core charge will be added to the price of the part(s). The core charge will only be refunded if core received is the same type as the core sold, is rebuildable, has no missing pieces and has not been taken apart. We recommend you pack the core in a sturdy box, tape securely, ship it insured and obtain a tracking number. Copy of invoice must be enclosed with core for refund of core charge. Used parts are sold “as is” and are in good usable condition. No two matching items are in the same cosmetic condition. If appearance is of major concern, ask for “select used” and we will quote the price. All our parts are inspected and tested by our shop’s technicians. We also have N.O.S. (new old stock) parts for those serious competitors looking to restore a Metropolitan to original condition. N.O.S. prices are considerably higher than the prices listed in our catalog. Call to inquire. WARRANTY All of our new and rebuilt parts are guaranteed against defects in material and workmanship for a period of 60 days from date of purchase. This warranty covers only the part and does not include labor or failure of a related component. In no case would liability of Metropolitan Pit Stop, Inc. exceed the invoiced price for the guaranteed part. We make no other warranty, expressed or implied.

  • American Motors Corporation Model Descriptions and General Information
    American Motors Corporation Model Descriptions and General Information Rambler Six and V8: 1955 – 1957 1955 Nash Rambler Six The 1955 Nash Rambler received a minor facelift over 1954, but was basically unchanged from the car issued in 1953, which was distinguished by a lowered hood, and enclosed front and rear fenders. That styling had been credited to Pinin Farina and did have many of the styling features of the 1952 and 1953 Golden Anniversary Ambassador and Statesman. (For more information on the 1953 Rambler, see the Tech Section on Nash vehicles). New for 1955 features included the addition of a cellular grille and full wheel cut-outs in the front fenders, versus the previous enclosed look. Ramblers came in two wheelbase models; 100" for the Standard 2- 1955 Rambler Cross Country Station Wagon. door and 4-door cars and 108" for "Custom" 2 and 4-door models as is the station wagon shown at right. As part of the merger, the Rambler was sold as the "Nash Rambler" and the "Hudson Rambler". See the discussion under Hudson Cars for more information. The 85 horsepower 184 cu. in. 6-cylinder engine of previous years was dropped and was replaced by the 90 horsepower 196 cubic inch engine, which had come on the Hydra-Matic equipped cars in 1953 and 1954. It now was the sole available powerplant. Rambler consistently held the No. 1 spot in used car value, as reflected in NADA reports of the time. As such, for 1955, 56,023 Nash Ramblers were sold. And when combined with Hudson Rambler sales, over 81 thousand were delivered to customers, which, at the time, was the highest total ever.

  • American Motors Corporation Model Descriptions and General Information
    American Motors Corporation Model Descriptions and General Information Rambler Classic: 1961 – 1962 1961 Rambler Classic The Rambler was renamed "Classic" for 1961 to help create a stronger individual model identity. Thus, the "Rambler Six" and "Rebel V-8" names were retired at the end of the 1960 model year. The Classic was available with both 6 and V8 engines. An aluminum block version of the OHV 196 I-6 engine was an available as well. Ramblers featured "twin circuit" brakes, a safety design offered by only a few cars at that time and now mandated by DOT. 1961 Rambler Classic Six The 61 received a new front end featuring a one-piece rectangular, Super 4-Door Sedan extruded aluminum grille with "Rambler" at the bottom, just above the bumper. The parking/turn indicator lights were relocated to just below the front bumper. New front and rear bumpers were also used along with new side trim. DeLuxe Series standard equipment included turn signals; twin panel ash trays; air cleaner; front arm rests; cigar lighter; dual headlamps; dual sun visors. Station Wagons received a travel rack and five black tubeless tires. Super Series models were equipped the same as above plus dual horns; rear door arm rests; front foam cushion and rear ash trays. Custom Series models were equipped 1961 Rambler Classic V8 Custom 4-Door Sedan with all above plus full wheel discs; electric clock; glove box light; two-tone steering wheel; carpets and rear vent window. A major engineering change (and a first for the industry) was the introduction of a die-cast aluminum, six-cylinder engine - standard for Classic Custom models, and optional on DeLuxe and Super models.

    http://clubs.hemmings.com/northcoastamc AMX-Clamation!!!VolumeVolume 19 Number 4 July - Aug. 2010 A Funny Thing Happened … Dale Veverka A funny thing happened on the way to the library. A quick trip to return my daughter’s DVD brought me face to rear hatch with a Gremlin. The little four place coupe was parked in a handicapped spot in front of the Indepen- dence Branch of the Cuyahoga County Public Library. After a glance, I knew I needed to return to my truck for the digital camera and a club tri-fold. Thanks to all those who have taken the time to pass along club information at cruise ins and car events that you attend. It’s great that the club receiver contacts from people who use their technology to find the club. BUT… you can’t beat that personal touch in winning new members Please carry a copy of the club tri-fold application in your vehicles just in case. I shot these pictures and put the car under my microscope vision. Both body and interior were in great condition. I placed the club folder under the wiper and went in to take of my library busi- ness. Car was still there when I left. A few days later at the local parts store the counter men mentioned the Gremmie. But, they weren’t aware of the car’s owner. As of this mo- ment I haven’t gotten a call inquiring about club membership. Oh well, maybe next time. Contact Exhaust Notes Information... If you are interested in showing off President: Dale Veverka your car in the Independence Home Days 6934 Brookside Rd., Independence, OH 44131, Phone: Parade, please contact Dale at 216-524- 216-524-5977, E-mail: [email protected] 5977 so he can make reservations for the Past President/Club Historian: proper number of cars.
