Heftier front and rear bumpers were included to comply with new United States safety regulations on the 1973 Ambassador. The rear bumper gained vertical black rubber bumper guards, replacing a pair of similar and previously optional chrome bumper guards. This redesign occurred just as the 1973 oil crisis dramatically impacted the American automotive landscape, sparking nationwide gasoline rationing. The Ambassador was compared to the final generation of Lincoln's Town Car in size, on a 122 inch wheelbase.
