1955 Hudson Metropolitan Convertible "Like a Nash" wth Flying Lady Hood Orniment

Price: - Item location: Portland, Oregon, United States
Description:

1955 Nash

This is a NO RESERVE AUCTION.

1955 Hudson Metropolitan with Rare optional flying lady hood ornament. Ebay didnt offer Hudson as a Manufacturer option so I listed it as a Nash. The Metropolitan was only made under the Hudson Brand for 2 years. This car runs and drives well. The Brakes work but could use some fine tuning. The carburetor and gas tank have been cleaned. This car was in a heated garage for many years and has just been put back on the road. There are a hand full of adjustments and minor fixes that should be made prior to being a daily driver. The odometer shows 3722.

I would consider this a cosmetic fixer though you could just drive it and enjoy it as it is or due a full restoration. I see No signs of rust through holes on any of the body panels or floorboards.

Please watch the video of the car running and driving. The engine runs and sounds Great. The Transmission shifts very well (3 on the tree).
