61 Nash Metro

[69MyWay]

Please feel free to question my sanity. Truth is that Radrambler has little by little rubbed off on me with these pre AMC products and the early AMC products. I started looking first at the Metro then switched to the 50s Nash Rambler Wagons...and settled back here. I LOVE the dropped fenders and saw some V8 models...etc with some sweet wheels - etc.

I usually prefer to pick up "project cars" that are in a deep state of disrepair or unfinished. I probably paid too much for this one, but from what I can see it is solid leaving more time for the good stuff instead of trying to rebuild the entire car before I get to the goodies.

Because gas prices and other issues have put a squeeze on my "hot rod" budget, I have all sorts of odd ideas running around my mind head about this 1.5 liter three on the tree teacup on wheels.

Also, I want a car I can drive everyday that is both economical and fun. I know that those two words and cars built in 1961 aren't suppose to go in the same sentence.

So...here is the ebay auction I won with the pictures.

Let me know what you think - or what you would do with one of these little puddle jumpers.
