    I remember back in the late 80's and early 90's frequently seeing a rural mail carrier driving a right hand drive 67 AMC Rebel sedan near Luray, Virginia. With the right hand drive, road side mail boxes were always within reach so I guess it worked pretty well.

    RHD AMCs

    I notice the dealer/agent has an address on Sloane Square, London. I have slides of AMCs I saw parked near there, that I took on a trip in 1985. At the time I saw no indication of a dealership nearby and wondered what was going on, since American cars were remarkably rare in Europe. Somewhere there is a lengthy, illustrated posting/article about a UK band that found a RHD 1974 Ambassador wagon -- the model shown -- and fixed it up for use on their tours. Ambassador's numbers were down that last year but design-wise the wagons are about the prettiest woodies from the seventies you will find, and if someone has one they are trying to sell, come this way.
