My mom had a Nash like that, John. Cool car!
My first car was a 1962 Sunbeam Imp. Not this one, but white with white interior, four speed. My grandfather bought it for me for $300 when I was 18. I put a peel and stick red racing stripe over the top/hood and groovy flower power stickers on the dash. Yowza, chick magnet! Not.
It broke down constantly and had so little power I couldn't drive it up any hills in San Francisco. I think it was only running on 3 cylinders the whole time I had it.
I bought my first new car when I was 29 - a Volkswagen Dasher station wagon. When I crashed that, I bought another one. What was wrong with me?!
