1951 Nash Ambassador - cars & trucks - by owner - vehicle automotive... (craigslist.org)
Seller's Description:

This is a 1951 Nash Ambassador Super. It is in nice running condition and drives well. This is a six-volt system. I have owned it since 2004. It is mostly original. The oil whip air filter and has been replaced with a conventional one, but the original comes with the car along with some other extras: radio, Nash hubcaps, original owner's manual. It has been kept in a shed, out of the snow and rain. It could use a little sprucing up. Maybe a new paint job & chrome. The headliner is in good shape but does have a little tear at the rear window. It's a fun ride just as it is and gets taken out for a spin occasionally. The front seat folds down to make the classic Nash bed. I've never had the mattress for it but one could be easily fabricated. Let me know if you have any questions. Thank you for looking.

Not a bad example if you like this style and could negotiate a price where you could still put a little money in it and not be too upside down. I still prefer the '49's and 50's rear end design.

Looks like someone relocated the oil filter to inner fender. I can understand why.

BUT I can't understand the air cleaner(MEH) AND especially the "battery hold down". JEEEZZZ!!!!

I don't know for sure but the battery hold down gives the car a "backwoods'" look.  He shoulda varnished it though.

By a "backwoods'" look do you mean to say "R_dneck" look

Yea, a little varnish would go a long way for appearance sake NYUK,NYUK,NYUK

I just noticed on that battery hold down - did you see the notches cut in to fit over the filler caps?  GENIUS !!!!!!!!!!

Drive that down the street, and you'll definitely get noticed. I bet most people under fifty have never seen one of these bathtubs.
