1970 AMC Ambassador DPL review from North America
"A real budget "sleeper"."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Bad carburetor when purchased.
Worn out shocks.
Needed front-end replacement.
General comments?
The problems that plagued the car when I purchased it were easily fixed using parts that were available at my local parts store.
Great power for such a large car.
A real head turner.
This has got to be my favorite car to date. Fun to drive, comfortable, with great handling. Truely a unique American Automobile.
