Neat looking old wagon. Could be a very cool old cruiser. Too bad about the flat head, though. The OHV engine had a lot more oomph.
Ugly body but cool-looking interior. Painting it red would help. Here, Mitt Romney with his: Improving the fun factor a bit: http://www.cruisenewsonline.com/1962RamblerAmericanHemiPowered/1962RamblerHemiPoweredFeature.html Or how about an AMX mill with a rare cross-ram manifold carrying an original AMC part number, for traditionalists? http://www.carcraft.com/featuredvehicles/ccrp_9903_rick_bennetts_1970_amx/photo_03.html http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:1962_Rambler_American_400_conv_3rd_Rock_rear.jpg
Mitt Romney's father, George Romney, was CEO of AMC for many years, so he is a little partial to Ramblers.
I never liked this generation of Rambler Americans. Pretty ugly, old flathead 6, designed in the 40's. Pretty crude. For $3,200, I think you could do a lot better.
