[AMC-list] 1964 American 220 wagon



I have a 1964 Rambler 220 Wagon that I'd like to sell.  Is there a forum here that lists cars for sale?  Three speed, 196 flathead, basically an original survivor.  Lancelot Turquois Metallic, quarters were repainted prior to my stewardeship.  Seats need recovering. Is there a way to get this listed some where?  Thanks,  Ian 914 271 3130
