Question
My son and I (he's 16) just bought a 1964 AMC Rambler 330.  We had the brakes redone by a local shop.  Two questions; First are there any technical manuals for this car available/  Especially a pdf version.  Second can this car get a power  brake retrofit?

Thanks
Edward


Answer
Here's a 66 Rambler American repair manual that you will find helpful:

Americans were fairly similar from 64-69.
If you can find an 64-69 American 440 with power brakes, you can use the booster and master cylinder on your 330.
