Vehicle Description
1956 NASH AMBASSADOR. This is a very rare LeMans version designed by Pininfarina Nash only produced these three years (54-56) and this was the last year. This is the actual car on the Nash Owners Club website. It was restored by the previous owner inside and out. The two items that denote it as a LeMans are the rear quarter panel name emblems and the rare dual carburetor Nash-Healy motor. An optional "Le Mans Dual-Jetfire Six" engine used 8.0-compression and dual Carter carburetors to make 140hp at 4000 rpm. Originally tri-tone green/black/white now done in the original red/black/white colors. The car has wide whitewall radials that are like new very nice chrome and stainless trim very straight body never wrecked features the rare plexiglass sunvisor accessory. Just look at the photos to judge for yourself. There are two issues to be aware of; the bottom of the fenders have a slight bubbling which is an easy fix and there is a slight bind in the steering box but it is random. Some rare accessories come with this car; a pair of the original factory mattress pads in their carry bags that were an accessory for the fold down front seat a nice set of factory wire hubcaps and a set of vent shades for the doors. This is a rare chance to acquire an even rarer automobile that would make an awesome addition to your orphan brand collection.
