for sale

Price: US $5,300.00

Description:

Up for sale is a 1965 Rambler American 440H 2 door hardtop. The car has 88, 042 original miles (as of 4/25/15) on it and was originally sold in Texas. The 440H was the top of the line that was available for the American in 1965. The 196 inline six matched with the original transmission coasts down the highway at any speed. This 440H was optioned with A/C which is still intact and functional.
The car is well documented as it contains many of its original sales documentation including the manual, cover, and protection plate with the original owners information, as well as other documents. The car is a solid rust free Texas car with one repaint in its life. The interior and drivetrain are all original. This American is a true survivor and boasts clean lines and a classic styling from the early 60's.
Paint - The paint is in good condition but does have a few nicks here and there but looks good up close. The trim is original and does contain some minor imperfections but is in good condition.
Interior - The interior is all original and in great condition. The drivers side seat had a couple of cracks that have been repaired and the passengers side seat has a crack at the top of the seat. Given its life in Texas heat, this American was taken car of as the dash pad isn't cracked. Added original floor lamp lighting under the dash.
Drivetrain - The original 196 starts every time even after being stored for winter. Matched with the original transmission this car will coast down the highway cruising at 70mph with ease.
Extra Parts - Also included in the sale will be extra parts including trim pieces, seat belts, ignition and lock cylinders with matching (original) AMC American keys, fuel filler cover from a '66 American, wheel cylinders, etc. Original spare tire/wheel and complete jack setup are included as well.
We purchased the car approximately 3.5 years ago. Over the first winter we installed RideTech air ride suspension on all four corners and matched it with RideTech's analog air management system. We like clean and simple installations so you will not find any switches or gauges as they have been discreetly placed on the inside of the car. The air tank, compressor and distribution block have been installed on a board which was color matched to the car and installed over the rear wheels in the trunk.
We have taken this car to various shows in the Midwest including GoodGuys in Des Moines, IA. The Rambler was a true eye catcher for many at the show as most stated they haven't seen one of these in years.
This American is a great little car that is a head turner especially when it airs out at a show. You will not be disappointed.
Feel free to message me for any additional information and/or pictures of the car. $500 deposit requested within 24 hours of auction’s end with remaining due within 3 days. Car is SOLD as is where is no warranty is implied or given.
