1962 Nash Metropolitan

Nash Metropolitan (1962)
for sale

Price: US $1,500.00

Description:

These are two (2) Nash Metropolitan cars - PROJECT cars!
They were originally built in England by Austin (before becoming Austin-Healey) for Nash (before becoming Nash Rambler, etc.)
They are both positive battery connection systems.
One is more restorable than the other - together you have many duplicate pieces.
Car #1 has a clear Missouri Title. Car rolls, for transport and is 99.99% complete - the only missing part is the driveshaft. The rest of the drive-line is complete, the engine is free. It has never run while in my possession - but was being worked on to run at the time of my purchase and transport to Florida. It needs floor panels and a cross-member, all of which are available. The convertible top frame is decent, there is no top - it comes with one, but it is only a thin membrane - not what I consider to be a convertible top - but who knows what it was supposed to be. It has a front seat (out of car) and the pads for the back 'seat', if you want to call it that. The trunk is solid. It comes with several boxes of spare pieces, etc.
Car #2 does not have a title and is a bit more 'reverting back to nature', but that does not mean that someone with metal working talents can't turn it around and make it a second solid car. The car floors have been fiber-glassed over, it has the front seat and just the vinyl covers for what is supposed to be the rear seat. It rolls for transport. The amazing thing about this car - is it was running and driving when I purchased it. I think that's the reason that I bought it, I was so amazed!! The previous owner got the engine running (kinda), the brakes working enough to stop the car - and drove it up and down a driveway, to show me that it shifted, etc.!! This car also comes with boxes of parts either for the car or extras.
I'm offering them as a 'Pair'. If you have any questions, please ask me, Tony.
