I just found an Ebay listing for a silver Olds Ambassador.
They list the serial number as 727254.
Did Olds make silver Ambassadors? |

Yes!
Normal finish was Finish 10 "Clear durabel" lacquer
Finish 20 was Satin silver, silver bell
Finish 30 was Satin silver, gold bell
Finish 40 was Bright silver, silver bell
Finish 50 was Bright silver, gold bell and
Finish 60 was Nickle plated.
AND Finish 20 was FREE on the Ambassador if you wanted to order it. Wish I'd known that back then!

I had a factory silver Mendez trumpet for a while and have what appears to be a factory satin silver Ambassador cornet now.
