59 Nash, Still Looks Good

One day a few years ago, I went to our local supermarket on 18th Street.  When I came out, this 59 Nash was sitting right there.  I don’t know why, but I love the way these cars looked.  My aunt had a convertible from about 1959 that looked a lot like this car.  Talking to my cousin, he recalled it having a top that slid along the top of the car so it was just the middle part of the roof and the rear window frame that was canvas.  Nice car.

I almost purchased one of these (non-convertible) in 1960.  I saw it advertised in the newspaper and I wanted to buy it, just to work on it.  This car was an early British import that had very little market success when gas was about 30 cents a gallon.  This car belongs to someone in our neighborhood.  I see it parked quite often.

This is an updated 1973 Chevrolet Malibu muscle car with a 350 cubic inch V8.  At least that’s what the emblems say.  The rims and tires are certainly not stock, but the rest of the car looks very clean and quite standard.

P.S. These pictures were taken with my brand new Canon S90 pocket camera.  Great for taking pictures like these.
