The Nash automobile company manufactured cars from 1916 through to the 1950s when they were bought by American Motors Corporation. Advertised as a car “built for the nation’s most discriminating car owners,” the Nash established a standard of excellence with its long flowing body lines and fenders that gracefully sweep with the whole car.

This four-door Nash has been generously modified, making it a stunning car today that sits at an all-over lowered stance with a slightly lower front rake. Painted with two-tone finishes of tan with a tasteful mint-green, the Ambassador has tan color-keyed wheels with bright trim rings and center caps. Whitewall tires, foglamps, dual mirrors and a split rear window help provide additional period style. The engine is a 350-cid V-8 that is painted in matching green to the exterior of the car. Additional under-hood elements are coordinated with the tan shade. The transmission is a column-shift automatic. Front bucket seats and a rear bench seat in tan adorn the interior; the seats have complementing cloth inserts, and the cabin is bisected by a custom center console that houses various convenience appointments. An “old school” tissue dispenser harkens to an earlier time. This Slipstream Sedan has air conditioning, Dolphin white-face gauges, JBC aftermarket stereo, “suicide”-style rear doors and a finished trunk in the same style and materials. The Nash body was known as a “fortress of strength” - this example is well-executed throughout and built with integrity.
