I still have an original radio for one of these. Most peculiar cars. Absolute crap but quirky.

They were mimicking the larger Nash Ambassador and indeed the whole Nash range, but they didn't really work for me either! However, my wife loves them so maybe Nash knew their target market!Kevin Birch wrote: ↑Wed Jun 16, 2021 8:58 am I was never comfortable with the shape, I understand what they were trying to do, but it is too small for the style, the Austin Atlantic doesn't sit right for me either, too short.

Re: Classic cars on the road
Very nice Fiat 127. They were excellent drivers in their day. Sadly also excellent rust buckets. A nice period Abarth exhaust would look and sound the part.
Much more preferable than that horrible thing with the showy exhausts.

Unlike him I don't have 6 hours time to do that pass, I've got places to be, people to meet. Well actually, I just need to be back home at some point.
