But again, according the Rambler Literature,,,,,,,,they state that the
343/280 HP 'Z' Code engine was not available in the Model 220.

Of course,,,,,,,,,,,,anything can have been bought...back then.

On the exterior markings,

The Model 220 and Model 440, had emblems on the front fender.
Also, the Rogue emblem was on the front fender.

The 290 V-8 engine call out was placed on the back fender.

The Model 220 and Model 440 had 'American' on the front fender.

Both the Model 440 and Rogue, had a brushed panel insert for the
back trunk lid.

The Model 440 and Rogue, had a trim molding section at the base of the 'C' pillar.

Drip-rail moldings were standard the Model 440 and Rogue.

Lower window trim moldings, Rogue only.

Full-length fender crown trim molding, Rogue only.

The lower exterior full-length band-molding was standard on the
Model 440 and the Rogue.

That molding was not available on the Base Model 220.

Rocker panel moldings were (optional), and were available on all models.

Bucket seats were available in the Rogue only.

Paul,

Any chance you can make you documentation available to the AMC community?

Some clarification:
"The 290 V-8 engine call out was placed on the back fender." All engines had call-outs on the rear-fenders.

"The Model 440 and Rogue, had a trim molding section at the base of the 'C' pillar." There were actually four different trim-moldings at the base of the 'C' pillar, all were different, and none were interchangeable, they each had different (mounting) holes... 220's had their own, 440's had different ones, Rogues (without vinyl) actually had 2 per side, and Rogues (with vinyl) had their own.

Everything else is accurate.

Trivia question: All X-code '67 American had a distinguishing feature, visible in the trunk, do you know what it was?

Go ahead and email me directly if you can make your documentation available... thanks for all of your help.
