" Hi - 
" I am a former AMO member - I owned a 1966 Ambassador convertible from
" 1975 to 1991. The car then became part of the Peter Hill collection,
" and I have remained a fan of this era of AMC cars. Recently I
" discovered a youtube video that included a 1973 clip of President Juan
" Domingo Perón at his return to Argentina from Spain. I noticed that
" the Ambassador limousine that he was in is an exceptionally appealing
" vehicle. Is there any way that the provenance of this car can be
" traced? Does AMO have any information on who the coach fabricator is
" who produced the limo version of this car? Has a photo exhibit of this
" model ever been put together?
" 
" 
" Any clue on the above questions would be greatly appreciated.

they might well have been made by ika - industries kaisers argentinas.
their smaller cars were licensed from renault, who eventually bought
them out, but their larger cars were licensed from amc.  their torino,
which was a design hybrid of the '63 classic and '64 american and
powered by the kaiser 230-ohc 'tornado' i6, was very successful and
remained in production well into the '80s, under renault ownership.
but they also made classics or ambassadors at least in the early '60s.
that looks like a '65-6 model...
