Hey Everyone,

My name's John and I'm new to the list and new to AMC cars.  I just picked
up a '65 Rambler Ambassador 990 with the 327 V8 and I'm looking to build it
out as a muscle car over the next two years or so.  It seems to be running
fine, so nothing too major on the motor to start with but just about every
light (headlights, turn lights, brakes, etc) are shot.  I've looked online
for bulbs at all the common places like Napa and Kragen but couldn't find
any bulbs for this car.  Any ideas?  I  guess my next step will be to take
the bulbs out and go down to one of the shops and see what they can dig up.
I'd also like some pointers to a service manual if any are available for
this thing.  When I do get to working on the motor, is there any common
methods to building this 327 out or should I consider dropping something
else in such as a 350?

Ideas and sources for parts would be great!  Any AMC/Rambler clubs in
Southern California?

TIA,

John Livingston
