Guest StudebakerBigBlock Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 i have a 51 nash statesman , flat 6 with an aluminum head with twin carbs and air filter setup. ive never seen one like this and i cant find any info on it or others to compare , im trying to put a value on the car, it needs floor work wut has a nice body with no rust . it runs great , drives good, it was rebuilt 30 some years ago and i rescued it . any info or ideas on what its worth or if this engine is original or an option ? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosmo Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 When you say it needs floor work, can you describe that more specifically? If there is rust in the floor, it's a fairly big deal because these are unibody cars. Body & frame are one unit. I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest StudebakerBigBlock Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 starting in the rear there is a big hole under the spare tire , the rest of the trunk is solid. it will need partial inner rockers , and the floor has holes in the corners where you put your feet from where the windshield gaskets have craked and leaked . and some other where you put your feet in the rear . the exterior has no rust , no repairs and no bubbles. somewhere down the line the prev owner painted it light blue , even the enderside of the floor is blue . but im finding under the blue a coral color and on the roof gray . but all this was done prior to 1980 the last time the car was on the road untill last year . the unibody structure looks ok and strong . but with as many little pin holes in the floor you might as well replace both sides . i can add pictures if your interested .
