My first car was a 1963 Rambler Ambassador Station wagon. It had a 327 cubic inch V-8, 4 barrel carburetor, overdrive, seats in the front that reclined into beds, and had dual glass pack mufflers, and a rear jump seat. It was a custom build and I bought it used in 1974. I miss that car!
This looks exactly like my first car, the 1963 Rambler 660 wagon, white over gold with the stock luggage rack. It also had factory air conditioning which was needed in Kansas. Regretfully, I skidded into a utility pole on some ice (at only 30 mph) in a small Kansas town and that was the end of my great car. Thank you for showing this auction.
Thanks for sharing your experience and memories, Nick. People kid about Rambler, but they were really nice cars!! Did you have the 6 or the V8? By the way, be sure to check out my other Rambler videos. I have a soft spot for them.
The nerve!!!! Where's my bidder's number?? Today, one can even phone or place bids via internet adding to the bidder's pool. Stay tuned, Bill, a lot more to come!!!
One never knows at auctions!!!! There are a lot of under 10k collector cars out there. Carlisle auction is coming up next month... stay tuned William, or get a number!!!!!
I liked this year and generation. Growing up I had a neighbor with 2 Ambassadors, a taupe 4dr and a white wagon. Nice size and styled cars. The lower price Classics were more common and nice as well.

Sounds like a real sleeper...in more ways than one!!!!!! How long did you have your Ambassador, Diane? Why did you sell her?
Beautiful design beautiful car.🇺🇸👍
These Ramblers were clean and compact designs. To bad they didn't sell better.

@@carshowreporter Thank you for the response! It was the six cylinder. And, just because you responded, I'm going to subscribe!
Watching this video explains exactly why I hate auctions. Offer the car at a fair price and sell the darn thing!

I sure would like to know how that car was stored all those years and bought back to life to look that good. Sweet.
Great question, Drew!! It would be nice to get the back story. Rambler had galvanized body panels, so it helped keep her looking that good!
Wow. A brand new collector car for under thireen thousand. I would have had to snap it up.

My family had Ramblers, including a 63 Classic 4 door, bare bones with 3 on the tree, radio/hear, rubber floor mats.... No P/S, P/B,
