Re: [Amc-list] 1961 AMC Rambler

Rats, Figures. 
I'd love to have that to put in line to do some day!
Interior or not, Most of them don't have a usable interior anyway!
Theres also a 65 Rambler Convertible listed in the local Bulletin Board! Listed as "parts car".
I don't even have a day off till next Saturday to think about looking at it and it's half a state away.
I doubt it would have much to make my job easier on the ambo though. The add does not even say if it is a Ambo, Classic or American. Not price either.
