keiser31 Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 The Nash looks to be 1946-48. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloo Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 (edited) #2 is an Iso Grifo series 1. 1965-69 more or less. I think the 58 DeSoto is probably a Fireflite. If it were a Firesweep it should have eyebrows on the front fenders like a 58 Dodge. Edited February 16, 2022 by Bloo (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The 55er Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 I'm thinking the red 1958 DeSoto convertible is actually a Firedome series. Look closely at the script on the rear quarters under the antenna. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 1946 cars didn't have the small 'extensions' on the grille. The 1948 models did away with the chrome waistline strip. The pic is a '46 Ambassador, part of a project (three cars - not all of it here yet) that my son recently acquired. This one had donated its roof panel to another project which needed some curved steel. Note the 'narrower' grille compared with the '47. Relatively rare in right hand drive I think. There were just less than 200 Nash cars sold in NZ over the three years 1946-48 and many of them would have been the lower price 600. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzcarnerd Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 This is one of two - I am told - blue right hand drive Iso Grifos in NZ. Power comes from a 327 Chev V8 which Iso tweaked themselves. The owners of this one also have a Fidia, among other cars. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
