This car HAS to be from the 1950's, belongs to an old man I know in Long Island City.

oh hell yeah. at the risk of outing myself as a car buff, thats a 1959 amc rambler ambassador custom country club hardtop wagon. what a mouthfull. a hell of a car, though. wax out the already-oxidized finish and polish the hubcaps and youd have one bent ride... fifty years later and it still looks nice.
btw, congrats for being the number one google hit for Ambassador Custom Country

wow, i'm surprised anyone outside of india - where they are used as taxis - still drives ambassadors!

I own the exact car. Mine is copper in color. They are very rare and only about 5 - 10 left in existence. AMC only made around 3400 originally for 1959. And it is a 1959 Rambler ambassador custom wagon but it is not a hardtop. It has a b-pillar therefore it is not a hardtop. If it were a hardtop it would be 1 of 1. I have restored mine to mint condition over the last 8 years and I have never seen a hardtop 1959. You can check out mine on flicker.
