CorvairJim Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 What a beauty! Great lines, great details, and I'm a sucker for those chromed vent doors in the hood sides.I'm with John: What an era for automotive design! Unlike nowadays, you could tell cars apart.

CorvairJim Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 It took some research, that's for sure! Those chromed hood doors I commented about led me to believe it was a 1932-model GM product, since all GM divisions featured doors on the hood sides instead of louvers in 1932. But the grille/shell weren't right for any '32 GM product! But since I was searching 1932 cars, I found a few with similar chromed hood doors, including the REO and this Nash, which showed me the grille I was looking for. Then all I had to find was the right model. This has to be one of the most beautiful cars ever to have been featured as the "Mystery Car" - Good work, Harry!

otherunicorn Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) I used the 8 on the grill as my search key. Weirdly, nothing showed up on straight-eights, and I found it with a V8 reference. Edited February 24, 2015 by otherunicorn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
