  1. You don't see these every day! I wonder how it got to the Netherlands. No real information in the ad but more pictures...(blocked from copying) https://www.kenniscars.nl/Nash/1931-480-455-Landaulette/Sedan-4818996/2149/1/30/details.aspx?zoek=&pv=1&kv=100&so=gallerij
  2. Some engine types are hard to recognize...early Hemi isn't one of them. Inherited cars often come with inflated specifications! "Show room condition...my dad restored it perfectly!"
  3. Looks very nice, but pretty optimistic price and only one picture! Too bad because I really want to see that period correct AM/FM radio! https://losangeles.craigslist.org/sgv/cto/d/pasadena-1931-deluxe-phaeton/7728241385.html This is a late 1931 2-door Dlx Phaeton. This car is an older restoration, showing a mere 3,573 miles since restoration. The car has a 4:11 ring and pinion rear end with Borg Warner overdrive. The engine was rebuilt at the time of restoration. It has a Stromberg 97 downdraft carburetor, Broomfield head, Ansen intake manifold, electric fuel pump, gas and oil filters, turn signals, water temperature gauge, seat belts, updated distributor, and 39 clutches. Correct period steering column mounted AM-Motorola radio. The two spare tires are mounted in the front wheel wells and covered with a chrome cover. It is painted Washington blue with straw-painted trim and wheels. It has simulated leather upholstery in excellent condition with seat belts in the two front seats. A 12-Volt electrical conversion has been made to include a 12-Volt alternator and new battery. The canvas top looks like new. This car is equipped with etched wind wings, a chrome radiator guard, six white-wall tires, and an aftermarket trunk rack. Asking $32,000. (626) 353-1889
  4. Nice to know the flaps are new...a picture of the interior would have been helpful!
  5. '29 was the first year for the 6. '28 got most of the features...more room in the engine compartment and 4 wheel brakes, but the 6 wasn't ready so they improved the 4 to near Model A performance as a one year only model.
  6. I could live with the red upholstery, the yellow dash and window moldings bothered me....cheap re-paint?
  7. Seems like a nice example. Is this another marque that does for sub-Model A money? (which would make this one over priced) more pics in ad https://phoenix.craigslist.org/nph/cto/d/scottsdale-1930-diamond-reo-flying-cloud/7724250342.html 1930 Diamond Reo Flying Cloud Cabriolet Sedan, Suicide Doors Rear Entry, dual matching side board mounted spoked wheel spares, Camel mohair seating (original), original head liner, in-line 6 cylinder engine, rear mounted strapped boot, chrome bumpers, front mounted running lights, 18” wheels. An amazing, rare automobile by the Murray Car Company. Contact Sidney 480-235-2247.
  8. These look very odd today but were only slightly so in 1950. (more pics in ad) https://inlandempire.craigslist.org/cto/d/calimesa-1950-nash-ambassador-custom/7727887688.html nice solid original low mileage car to use as is or restore. Very rare model and color combo. The only one I have seen in 68 years. It is the Custom with the automatic transmission, overhead 6 engine. Very well kept. Runs great but the 22,000 miles is probably not correct as nice as it is. The previous owner swears to it but I see a little more wear than 22,000 miles.Interior is in nice shape but the seats that are covered with the old timey seat covers have wear underneath and would need recovered with the original stripe broadcloth at $175 a yard out of SMS in Portland, Oregon, 4 yards to have an almost perfect interior. The paint could be original or mostly original, I can't tell, but it could use painting and a little chrome work to be a show piece. I am crazy about this car and if I don't find a good home for it I am going to Paint it, do some chrome and stainless work, maybe do the seats and maybe sell it but for over $30,000 or keep it till I drop!

  12. Exactly right! By '47, a boat tail was really old fashioned. As far as this car goes...the mods in my opinion require a lower than stock price, not higher, but I will say.... We've seen worse!
  13. You don't see these every day! I bet it really rides like a truck!
