for sale
Price: US $999.00
Price: US $999.00
This is a NO RESERVE auction for a rare 1953 Nash
Ambassador Country Club LeMans Airflyte 2 door coupe.
This is a very rare Nash Ambassador, it has the optional
power plant; the LeMans Dual Jetfire six. The Le Mans engine, with its dual
carburetors, has 8.0:1 compression and pumped out 140 horsepower at 4, 000 rpm.
This car has been in storage for many years. I am not sure how long, but the tires are Firestone
Gummed Dipped whitewalls! The tires still held air when found, and were not
flat.
It is in non-running condition and needs
restoration, but what a great starting point for a very rare car.
The car has rust issues but is surprisingly free of
major rust. It has some rust through on the floor board near each door and a
bit in the trunk. The body seems pretty
solid, with what’s left of the original paint. Has some body damage near the
driver’s door as shown that someone started to repair. Has a couple of rusted
spots on frame near trunk driver’s door.
The dash looks complete but has surface rust.
Windshield has a crack right in the middle almost
straight up and down, and the passenger side window has a rock through it, the driver’s
is cracked.
Brakes are non-working.
The engine turns over by hand, but I took the valve
cover off and the rockers are all missing along with one valve spring.
The complete dual carb set-up is present.
It has a manual, column shifted, transmission, with
OVERDRIVE!
The seats are present but the upholstery is gone on
the front, but you can see the pattern on the back seat. They were removed to
show the condition of the floorboards. The door-panels are bad, but you can see the
pattern of the trim and finish.
No keys, trunk lock is removed inside (lock is
still present).
Front bumper is bent and has some rust.
The doors and windows work okay.
The car is sold in as is condition, in need of restoration, and I am sure has more faults that I have not discovered.
I do not have a “Buy it Now” price and the auction
will run till the end, I will not sell it outside of Ebay or locally so you can
bid with confidence.
This is a really rare, very unique car that deserves
to be rescued.
Shipping arrangements and fees are the responsibility
of the winning bidder.
I don't have any idea what it will cost to ship nor what it would cost to ship overseas, it is up to the buyer to determine.
The car is located at 87544, Northern NM.
I HAVE A CLEAR NM TITLE!!
