Since the Ambassador's sales had fallen in 1961, it was decided that the car would be downsized for 1962 to directly share the body, windshield and 108 inch wheelbase with the Rambler Classic. New rectangular taillights were seen at the ends of restyled rear fenders, which lost their fins entirely. A new 400 trim line was added at the top of the trim series, with Super and Custom models remaining. The 1962 model year is the only one of this third generation of Ambassadors.
