Mechanical

Power for our wagon comes from a 232 cubic inch inline-six engine mated to an automatic transmission. It looks just as it did when it sold new back in 1966 with the engine, head, valve cover, intake and air cleaner system all painted in the factory orange and having the Rambler decals on the air cleaner too.

Everything else looks factory in the clean and detailed engine compartment also.

Interior

The original interior has green vinyl upholstery and dark green carpets that are set off by wood grain trim on the dash and door panels. The front and rear seats are equipped with lap belts, and interior options include an AM radio and foldable split-bench front seat backs.

A factory 2-spoke steering wheel with an Ambassador horn button is present as our all the factory gauges and controls and the cabin appears to be largely stock and the instrumentation includes a 120 mph speedometer, and just over 97k miles are shown on the 5-digit odometer.

Exterior

Our 1966 has the original paint still on it and Station wagons also received a new roof (that did not have as pronounced dip over the rear cargo area) as well as a redesigned.

It has two rows of seats with a standard bottom-hinged tailgate with electric, fully retracting rear window, and a roof rack.

Conclusion

This rare 1966 AMC Ambassador 990 Cross Country Wagon we have for sale here at Skyway Classics has the original paint and interior, inline six mated to an automatic transmission, and other rare options will really stand out in a crowd of Mustangs and Camaros at any car shows or cruises.
