That is my old 68 Ambassador. 343 2V, I bought it from the original owners
in Victoria, TX. Painted it original color it was a goor running and driving
car. However, for some reason, when you would get it out on the highway it
would overheat and blow antifreeze everywhere. I changed the radiator out
with a new one, got rid of the thermostat (I run ALL my cars with no
thermostat) and this seemed to solve the problem a little. I sold it to a
lady from Austin, would have to look at my records, but met her 1/2 in
Columbus, TX and sold it for $1400.
The interior didn't look like that seats wise as they were mint. For someone
looking for a FIRST AMC......or considering buying a good, solid Texas AMC
that is 36 years old, this would be a great starter. It was a excellent
daily driver the year I owned it, and as mentioned, only seemed to freak out
and overheat when pushed 65mph+. I guess in hindsight, when I drove it was
in Houston traffic, however driving it 13 miles to work never would exceed
60mph anyhows, to, or from, so never gave me problems. The bigger problem
was listening to AM radio, there is only so much Hillary Duff and Britney I
can stand before hurling.
It would not take much for someone to have a super, top of the line 68
Ambassador, hope it finds a good home!
