Used 1963 Rambler American 440

Back in the early 1960s, family transportation was typically rather utilitarian. Luxury features such as power windows and air conditioning were rare. Indeed, even an automatic transmission and power steering were often not seen on mom or dad's trusty family wagon. And that was fine for many, as lots of people liked these basic but bulletproof vehicles. Here we have an amazingly original example of a family wagon from back when the Beatles just came on the scene. This Rambler American 440 wagon is a former VanHorn's Antique Auto Museum car with just 43,205 miles and it shows in the arrow-straight and rock-solid body that still gleams in its original Ivory paint. The various chrome and stainless-steel trim looks fantastic and even the original wheel covers are on the car, adding the perfect punctuation mark to this Rambler. Inside, the original cloth and vinyl upholstery is is very good condition, and unlike today's boring beige, black or gray monotone schemes, adds some pizzazz to the interior with its two-tone striped motif. Even the original AM radio still resides in the dash. Under the hood is the original 196 cubic-inch straight six. The column-shifted four-speed (this car has the optional overdrive) transmission sends the power to the rear wheels. The powertrain is smooth and quiet, with an easy-shifting gearbox. The manual steering and brakes are surprisingly light too and the wagon is easy to maneuver, thanks to the cars compact dimensions and light curb weight of around 2,600 pounds.
