Congratulations. It won't be ugly when you get done.

 

Tail dragger.

 

Not sure if this is the right year.
just drop the rear a tad.
This one should be

 

I know where some hood sides are.

 

Ain't nothin' stinky lookin' about that coupe. I think they're pretty cool

 

When I was in 9th grade, there was one with a 322'' Buick /'38 Century trans swap running around town. Nobody made fun of it just 'cause it wasn't a Ford.

 

Looks like a bumper crop of period dirt...don't forget to save it because it makes a great companion next to period air in the tires...

It actually looks like an Aussie model of Coupe and it's not...

Congrats @choptop40, you mentioned gasser but are you also Custom minded?

 

A lot of vehicles I once considered ugly have grown on me. Take '38-'39 Ford trucks. You either love or hate that front end. After owning my '38 for 55 years, I've grown to love it. I used to think '60 Fords were ugly, now they are my favorite of the '60-'64 big Fords. I like that Nash. They were well-designed cars for their time. Suppose for a moment that Fords were lumped in with other makes as "non-Nashes." I like it. If you like it and can buy it, build it.

 

Looks like a cool design too me,if there somethinmg your feel needs to look beter,custom it some!

 

No one else will have one at a show.

 

Hey @Stogy , I think you hit on something here.
If I pull some dust from my vacuum cleaner, I could sell it on Epay as part of a "Sell Your Car as a Barn Find" kit. Of course the "Kit" would include a mouse nest and some raccoon poop...I"M GONNA GET RICH...

 

mmm..im telling you ...some of you guys should do Hamb standup comedy......could be a fun addition to the Hamb drags.....

 

A "bumper crop" of period dirt.
Hahahahahaha...

 

A certain publication is going to call that "rust free".

 

hey Rickybop , whats the hemi world doin.....

 

Hemi world?
Not sure what you mean.
I've never heard my name and Hemi used in the same sentence.

 

Is that a paying position?

 

^^^^ Can you live off of groans?

 

ok setup appointment to see the Nash tomorrow morning....Pics coming...you funny bunnies.....ha ha

 

Looking forward to it.
Happy for you that you found a pre-war fat fendered coupe.
Envious, even.

 

An older friend of mine has a similar Nash with a GMC 302 in it,

 

now thats an idea...Jimmy it up...

 

hey hey Rickybop , was refering to the Chrysler 4 door you picked up .....

 

Oh...
My '53 Chrysler 2d hardtop.
No Hemi. Just a big old 440 RB wedge.

 

I dare you to do the I beam axle thing. I triple dog dare you. LOL
If I can do it to this thing...

 

Hey Ricky, It looks like that straight axle is sneaking up on your Chrysler...kinda like it WANTS to be under it

 

I agree. I always thought the 38/9 was ugly too but I've driven my 39 every day for 17 years and its looks ok now
