Rambler's last L-head six of 196 cubic inches was offered for 1965 in the American 220 and 330 series.  Checker offered the old Continental Red Seal flathead six in their cars until 1965, but that engine was available with overhead valves as an option during the Fifties and Sixties.  From 1965 on they substituted Chevy OHV sixes and V8s.
So I think 1965 was the end of the line for production flathead engines in the United States...Bill Hershkowitz 66 Monza Sport Sedan 110 PG A/C
