Looks like you started with a really clean original. Eagerly waiting the after shots.

glad you guys like it but its not original anymore. i know ill upset some people on here who choose to keep their cars original. i like to change things a bit. i bought this car to hit some car shows and cruise around with some freinds. it now sits on some 20 * 10" rims, custom paint (viper blue and secret silver), alpine stereo with xm and i-pod controls, interior seats are black vinyl with blue velvet inserts (still need to cover the fronts), door panels are silver and blue velvet. the windows have a light tint to them. the mirrors and antenna have been shaved.
future plans are:
fuel injection- looking for a 4bbl intake and a pro-jection system
air ride suspention- back seems to be easy but that front trunion setup might be a problem
bigger alternater
hid headlights
duel exhaust
possible twin turbo setup with custom fuel injection ???
i need to find my cable to my camera so i can upload new pics but here's one i took last year.

I'm keeping mine stock, but I have no problems at all with what you've done here. The two tone works well, it still looks like a Rambler, you've done a quality job of modding it, and it's YOUR car. Glad you are enjoying it. Thanks for sharing the pics!

Cool! I grew up only about 5 minutes from Kings Park & spent a lot of my childhood on the water (the L.I. Sound part).
The damp & salty air of L.I. isn't too kind on most cars. I like what you've done to your Ambo - very nice update!
