    Hi everyone! My name is Frank and I live in Union Grove,WI. I have a 1923 T-Bucket Hot Rod, but my real pride and joy is my 1959 Nash Rambler Super American station Wagon. I was driving down a highway in Kenosha,WI. (Where it was made) and saw the back of it in an open garage. I immediately applied my brakes, almost getting rear-ended, and turned around to inquire about my Nash sighting. An 80-ish year old woman came to the door and told me it was her deceased husbands car and had been in the garage since his death some 20 years ago.I asked her if she was interested in selling it, and she told me "if the price is right". The car was definately cancerous from sitting but was complete. I offered her $1000.00, and she said "I was hoping for $1500.00,and the deal was made. I have since restored it to its original condition,and will post photos soon. It looks like a brand new car! I just joined this sight, I didn't know it existed. I'm looking forward to future communication amongst us!!

    Welcome from Union Pier, MI. Frank, I grew up in Kenosha, went to Mary D Bradford high school many, many years ago. Have fond memories of the old town when American Motors owned the place. You'll have fun on this site and the car knowledge is amazing. Les
