[oldbee]

OK now ur going into ‘Restoration Garage’! Out of my knowledge base. Plus, probably foreign, lol.

 

[Ghostrider 67]

[Ghostrider 67]

Oldbee, i remember all of my grandparents cars on both sides, but all of them were 4dr s, when i could drive, wouldn't be caught dead in a 4dr. My dads dad traded in a nice 50 Plymouth at the Chevy dealer two blocks from his house for a new 67 bel air. I saw the 50 downtown in my little college town about 15 years later. I new it was my grandpa's because some comedian on the assembly line put the hood ornament on upside down. I was the first to notice around 1962.

Good guess! ah...nope. Mid 50's is right though, 1955.

My parents were Mercury fans. Remember a bunch of 'em.

I think it's a nash-healey.

 

[its-a-mario]

Custom 1963 Rambler American 440. Sits on a Art Morrison frame, big HP.

I had a 65 Rambler American that I bought from the son of the original owner when she passed. I was a gas jockey at the time and she was a regular customer. She had to be 90 if she was a day old. Anyway, I bought the car in 1986 for $50. It was very nice, garage kept. I blew the head gasket on the thing driving it home (probably the first time the car was driven over 25 MPH). Anyway, I had big plans for that car, but zero money (I was 15). Anyway, sold it to a mechanic for $100 and regretted it ever since. Rust free, straight body. Perfect project car.

They were a contemporary of the billionaire Cunningham too...LeMans competitors...

[33 IMP]

Brown one.

I have been searching for years for a 63 Rambler American 330 2 door Station Wagon to restore. They only made like 4400 of them.

 

[Ghostrider 67]

Brown one.

You got it! it's a 1950 Nash-Healey LeMans and it is actually the very first one built AND the first one to be restored.

 

[Budnicks]

Yeah maybe a Nash on the maroon one, I don't se a brown one
I thought was an Cunningham
