1946 Nash Ambassador - $26,000 - Gladstone, NJ -
1946 NASH AMBASSADOR
BROUGHAM COUPE #R419778.
(Stock #3756.) Following the cessation of production of all
American cars for the war effort of World War II, Nash production
was restarted in 1946 with two models, the economy-minded “600”
and the Flagship of the senior line-up, the Ambassador. Most
examples seen of the Ambassador are the 4-door sedans, but there
was a quite unusual Coupe Brougham design which stands out with
its unusual design. With comfortable room for four adults, the
Brougham is a most handsome car and our car is a completely
correct and gorgeous example of the series. Complete with full rear
fender skirts, the car has been beautifully refinished in its original
“Ghost Grey” (an unusually grey-beige color) with a spotless tan
cord interior featuring a very luxurious polished metal dashboard
design. The car is powered by a strong 6-cylinder engine and a three
speed manual transmission with a “cruising gear” overdrive
enabling it to cruise easily at highway speeds. Options on the top-of-
the-line Ambassador included a “weather eye” heating and
ventilation system, a signal seeking radio, a metal sun shade over the
split windshield, a driver-side spotlight, a very ornate dashboard
clock (which works perfectly), back-up light, front fog lamps and
chrome bumper guards to the front and rear. Our car is fitted with
all of these features and was sold new by Sayre Motor Company in
Sayre, Pennsylvania. The car remained in Sayre for decades before
moving to New York State in the 1990’s and to New Jersey in 2009.
It is the car pictured in the Hemmings Motor News Nash book and
is outstanding in every way. Accompanied by original owner’s and
service manuals and documents along with an interesting photo
album. 37,750 miles. $26,000.
