Although not documented by AMI records, it is concluded that 20 right-hand drive 1970 Ambassadors were fully imported from Kenosha, apparently 16 two-door hardtops and 4 four-door sedans. One possible reason for this was that it may have been a holding action while AMI was preparing for the assembly of the new 1970 Rebel. AMC had assembled over 3,700 RHD Rambler Ambassadors for the U.S Postal Service in 1967, so they were well experienced in making completed right-hand drive vehicles. All Australian factory-RHD 1970 Ambassadors came with an automatic transmission with floor shift.
