Vehicle description
I am offering a uniquely original 1960 Rambler American Custom. I collect only original oddballs. This car is 100% original. The paint is original. The interior is original. Even the chrome is original. This car has on average been driven only 1,100 miles a year since new! Cars like this in this mint and original condition appear rarely. This car is only being sold as I refining my collection of cars. History from day one.
This example is the late production Custom model with better trim, both interior and exterior, but more importantly it included a OHV 128hp six cylinder engine rather than the outmoded flathead. Only a few thousand were produced in 1960. It makes this compact car perform like a hotrod! As I intended to keep this car indefinitely I did a full mechanical rebuild on the entire car. All new brakes from master cylinder to wheel cylinders. Recored the radiator. Adjusted the valves and checked the rocker arms. A full tune up and fluid change included the automatic transmission. New wires and coil. Rebuilt generator. And fitted a complete exhaust from the manifold. New whitewall radials with less than 1,000 miles. Even the gas gauge works correctly. This car has been driven on numerous trips of up to 200 miles. It has always given yeoman"s service in every regard.
This car has ALL ORIGINAL PAINT. The chrome is original and shows flawlessly. The interior, which is the top of the line, it totally original and mint. You simply can never make a car as original as this example.
I invite your phone calls. My phone number is 216-470-2146. I am a member of numerous AMC/Rambler clubs in addition to the AACA. If you require additional photos please e-mail or call. Thanks for looking.
