One of my parents richer friends had just that car. Nash'es were considered
kind of expensive back then IIRC. There was a big difference between MSRP
of $1200 for a Ford and $1500 for a Nash, apparently, in those days when
$300 would feed a family for eighteen years.
Thanks for thinking of me. And I'll offer something in return.
Ask me nice and I'll give you the name and number of a GREAT Carpet
Repairer!

You gotta, you just gotta!!! How cool is a Nash Metro anyway? It is
sooooooo cooooool! And right there in your home town and it's the perfect
retirement car. It just screams "I'm retired". You can get up, polish the
car, descide what underwear to pick up of the floor and wear then get
dressed and drive around looking for 'frop.
You need this car.

I've never seen one in person, but I understand that they sound
like the Jetson's space car when running.

Actually, they sound like an Austin Mini.
I've seen two in Vancouver, one pink, one turquoise - both later
models. The west coast is a good place for old cars - mild winters
with little road salt.
Here's a good Metro site with lots of photos:
http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Garage/7896/metropol.htm
I'm surprised there isn't a kit car for the Metro. Since it was built
by Austin, you'd figure someone would make a kit you could drop on an
Austin chassis, or maybe on a Fiat or something. The Volkswagen
Beetle's a no-go. Wheelbase is too long.
Of course the most insane thing you could do is drop one on a Cooper
"S" heheh. A friend of mine had one of those and I swear it would
leave ANYTHING in the dust. Fastest car I've ever driven. Scared the
hell out of me actually.
Here's MY idea of an awesome retirement car:

U r causing Serious nostalgia here
I Loved minis
had all sorts from maxed out 1400cc coopers to my spiderman
it had been in somone's side yard and the rainforest was taking over -
bat shit or somthing had sort of crazed 'n peeled the paint - it was
red, sort of. anyway $80 - a squirt of oil per cylinder and new battery
- Zoom...
I don't think I ever got it registered
but I did put a great big SpiderMan sticker on the side door so that's ok
button on floor for starter motor
it was only an 850 but would rev out to over 6000 (it turned out to be
Cooper 850 - alloy tag rived to back of block)...
it just WENT!
ate corners like a goKart - at 6000 you can really play with the
gyroscopic shit going on in a crossways engine...
the big V8 monsters would wop it at the lights - but I lived on a
mountain - me 'n spiderman were unbeatable DOWN the mountain;)

MIKE MERCURY! My brother had a Supercar model in the early '60s. It was
fairly large as I remember. I think it used some kind of music box form
of automation. Different plastic discs were dropped in to make it move
in different patterns. No longer unopened in the original packaging,
I'm afraid.

Talk about PIMP! It was a rare civilian that owned one privately that
wasn't a taxi.
Check ABS for me standing in front of the grille of a 1949 Roadmaster Buick.
A true iDRMRSR car. Well, my daddy's anyhow.

Ah, you'd get high, decide to go out for food and as you backed out of
your driveway, sneeze and fire one into your own den. Ix-nay on the

Then he starts wearing a fedora hat, black trench coat and mask and has
this oriental guy who wears a chauffer's suit and mask driving him around
town twirling nunchuks while he rolls down the window, plays "Flight Of the
Bumblebee" at 140dB and goes "BUZZZZZZZZZZ!!" at anyone he doesn't like.
