1958 AMC Ambassador

Automobiles

The decision to discontinue two iconic brands, Nash and Hudson, came so late that some early promotional materials for the forthcoming 1958 Ambassador even had the Nash and Hudson names. The body received a total reskinning, removing any traces of the previous Nash derived roundness, and the engine featured a four barrel carburetor and dual exhausts. The 1958 Ambassador came equipped with such luxury items as an electric clock and Nash's traditional deep coil spring suspension. It was marketed as the Ambassador V8 by Rambler.
