The signature Frost White and Berkshire Green two-tone color scheme
on this 1960 Nash Metropolitan Series IV Convertible makes it
instantly recognizable from blocks away. Ask any car guy - when you
spot these two colors divided along the body line, you know exactly
what you're looking at without needing a badge. Series IV
Metropolitans added a unique feature in the model's production run
- exterior trunk access for actual usable storage. The glossy
finish looks sharp from every angle, paired with 13" steel wheels,
factory hubcaps and whitewall 5.60-13 tires for that authentic
1960s look. Drop the white canvas top, and this compact classic
becomes the perfect fair-weather cruiser for weekend drives.
The dual-tone black and white interior offers straightforward
function with just enough flash. The split bench seat combines
vinyl and cloth materials for durability and comfort during
extended drives. Gray diamond fabric with black and white vinyl
trim adorns key surfaces, while the factory gauge face displays
essential information with crystal clarity. The floor-mounted
shifter gives direct control over gear selection. Black painted
dash and door tops create a unified look that ties the cabin
together without unnecessary complexity.
Mounted up front, the 1.5L inline-4 engine (15F-N-H 20154)
generates zippy power for around-town use. A modern 700R4 4-speed
automatic transmission replaces the original unit, allowing for
longer highway jaunts with lower RPMs. The single-barrel carburetor
mixes fuel and air efficiently while the stock-style manifold and
factory-type muffler with single exhaust maintain original
appearances. Mechanical drum brakes handle stopping duties
admirably. For suspension, coil springs up front and leaf springs
in back give this lightweight runabout steady handling through
corners.
