1963 AMC Rambler Classic 660 review from North America
"Still Wants To Live!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Carburetor not properly adjusted.
Seats need recovering.
Needs tune-up.
Brakes need work,
General comments?
The car needs work, I'm slowly repairing it, but will nearly always start, and run (with 3-4 bad plugs)
I'm looking for a new carb as this goes out.
Entertaining handling.
Simple, easy to read instruments.
Very good visibility.
Isn't the fastest creature on the road.
Right now the car is down for repair and refreshening, its more a restoration in progress.
Has good low-end power, decently torquey.
The car has been a Montana car for its entire life and has little rust, body in good condition.
