Common card · No. 220017

The Ambassador is an automobile manufactured and marketed by American Motors Corporation (AMC) from model year 1957 through 1974. Over its eight generations, Ambassadors were available in two- and four-door sedans, two- and four-door hardtops, four-door station wagons, and two-door convertibles. The cars were classified as a full-size car from 1957 through 1961, a mid-size from 1962 until 1966, and again as a full-size car from 1967 through 1974. The Ambassador was positioned at the top as the flagship line for the automaker, featuring more standard equipment, higher levels of trim, or increased size. When discontinued, the Ambassador nameplate was in use from 1927 until 1974, making it the longest continuously used car nameplate until then. Initially referring to a top trim level between 1927 and 1931, Nash used the Ambassador nameplate for their premium models. After merging with Hudson to form AMC, the nameplate was first used as the Ambassador V-8 by Rambler, then as the Rambler Ambassador...
