This all-new production features recent digital video shot entirely with a Traveler HD 10X Digital Video Camera.

This was recorded on Sunday, October 16, 2011 while visiting friends in Florence, Kentucky:

Welcome to Fillmore's Dairy Hut located on Route 18 in Florence, KY. Every Sunday afternoon, Fillmore's sponsors a Classic Automobile "Cruise-In" with a DJ on hand playing golden oldies to add to the atmosphere.

Here, I capture a few scenes of a gorgeous 1959 Rambler Ambassador by American Motors. The Ambassador was the top-of-the-line automobile produced by the American Motors Corporation (AMC) from 1958 until 1974.

In this video, you'll see a 1959 model Ambassador. This 4-door sedan has been beautifully preserved and maintained. This first generation design came with plush interior appointments. Exterior trim features include a die-cast chrome grille and quad headlights up front. The rear end design features stylish, canted tailfins. Side trim is accentuated by a sweeping chrome spear which accentuated the rear fenders. You'll see some views of this classic car from a variety of angles.

A look under the hood in the engine compartment reveals AMC's 327 cubic inch V8 rated at 270 HP. This engine was developed 3 years earlier when AMC first produced its own modern big block overhead valve V8.
