1960 Nash Metropolitan 79651 Miles Red Coupe 1500cc 4-Cylinder

1960 Nash Metropolitan Additional Info:

Vehicle Original VIN : E79596GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this 1960 Nash Metropolitan Convertible for purchase. The British Nash Motor Company noticed that post-WWII American automotive producers were all under the spell of "bigger is better". Nash sought to develop an economical and smaller alternative that really didn't exist in North America. With help from Detroit based independent designer, William Flajole, and some styling help from Pinin Farina Nash created and exported the Metropolitan. It was marketed as a simple 2nd car for the family when needed. It's known for its size of course, but also as being the first car that was marketed to women. In a time where this car just may appear as tiny for being tiny, the reviews came back overwhelmingly positive on the styling and performance leaving a lasting legacy in the classic car market today. This gorgeous Nash Metropolitan was restored and presents very well. The peppy 55HP, 1500cc engine runs as it should and is mated to a manual 3 speed on the floor transmission. The Nash rides on whitewall tires. The times have changed and although we like to think bigger is better at times, this car is a love at first sight and it only gets better when behind the wheel of this cool little ride!
