1951 Nash Ambassador Super Airflyte

1951 Nash Ambassador Super Airflyte. All original, and complete. Runs and drives. Hydra Matic trans needs serviced. My project that I realize will never get done, so I guess it needs a new home.

The mileage is actually 81870. I apologize for the short, details/ description. Car is only being sold for current personal reasons. It is tucked away in the corner of my garage, and was going to be my Winter project. So, please don't hesitate to ask questions. Car can be taken out of garage for more pictures upon request if necessary. It has a brand new 6 volt battery that is kept on a battery tender, so she will start right up for moving. I start her up a couple times a month.

One last update for the Nash. I had the tranny serviced, and it shifts great all ranges, and reverse as expected like these older Hydra Matics did. Engine runs smooth and quiet, and has never even had a tune up or any attention in Many Many yrs. As close as I can find out it sat in a garage for at least 30 yrs. Interior is all orig., as you can see in pics, but the foam in the seats is somewhat crusty. No tears or flaws in the orig. interior with the exception of driver door arm rest is loose, and headliner above rear window is coming loose in a section. All glass good, windows work up/ down, but need attention because of old dried up channels/ felt etc. It has an oil leak that has beendiagnosed as the fuel pump gasket, otherwise no leaks. The car will come with that minor leak issue!!!!!!!!! Otherwise I will immediately have it fixed if I end up not selling it. I will get my asking price,(which is reasonable) or I will gladly keep it. Rust issues are; 1 small area on body, as seen in new pics. left rear corner of trun, (something obviously laid there for a long time, probably damp rags, cardboard box, or somethinglike that, cause rest of trunk bottom is good.) and driver floor pan by door is rusted, rest of floor is solid. Undercarriage, frame, etc. is actually pretty darn decent. Of coarse she needs shocks,(probably has orig.) and tires are ingreat shape, almost look new.............but they are old bias ply.( I think they put new tires on it right before in went into storage.

I knew I would forget something. The orig. starter button is the gear shift lever,any Nash guy knows that. It does not work, and has beendiagnosed as a switch located on the steering column under the hood. I have not found 1 yet, but am told they are available. I have a picture of 1 I got from Nash club. That is what you see in a couple of interior pics is the make shift generic starter button. It works just fine.

With different tires, and a few minor issues fixed, she isdrivable. All lights/ blinkers work. Heater/ defroster work great, with 2 speed fan. Wipers try to work, but won't quite go all the way without help. Radio comes on, but won't play. Brakes are fine, but I'm sure eventually will need attention. Orig. light blue, on bottom of car, is actually very good, and with a little test spot I did with medium duty rubbing compound, and wax, she could look great. Top dark blue is a repaint to orig. color, and is fine. Trunk lid handle works properly SOMETIMES. I suppose rechromeing of bumpers would be the biggest expense to making this Nash look great again. All stainless body strips are in fine condition. Body has no visible/ known damage with the exception of the 1 spot I show pics of on lower pass. side. The car is well on it's way to being brought back into service, after such a long hibernation. I am just thankful that it was,obviously, kept stored inside!!!! Either "you" or myself, will finish what this old girl needs, and have a nice sought after "old car". Thank you all for your interest!!!! I remain undecided as to my true thoughts of maybe selling her, but at least I'm sure the Nash is on it's way to a second chance for the road. It is NOT known for a fact, but it could be a 1 owner car.
