At first glance, the Nash Metropolitan is a cute subcompact car that would be ideal for a weekend cruise. However, the Metropolitan is often used by Hot Rodders to build rocket ships that bang out a gazillion horsepower. If you are a purist who like to appreciate a car for what it was designed to be, this one is for you. What we have for you here is not a hot rod but a refurbished 1957 Nash Metropolitan 1500 Series III, which comes with its own adorable matching trailer. It received a slew of upgrades in 2020, and the custom trailer was built in Michigan around 2018 from a Metropolitan donor car. You can also expect a collection of Nash Gazette car club publications, two Metropolitan caps, and DVD "A Watch-Charm Rolls-Royce: The Story of The Metropolitan." included with the sale of the car. In addition, you get a jack, service manual, and the owner’s manual. Displaying 21,981miles on its odometer (TMU), this Nash Metropolitan awaits in Pennsylvania for its next lucky owner.
The Nash Metropolitan is a subcompact car built by Nash Motors Company from 1953 until 1961. According to former editor of Motor Trend magazine Jack Nerad “the Metropolitan's staying power and its never-ending cuteness earned it a place among the Greatest Cars of All Time”. Although the Metropolitan is clearly a little and adorable car, people who build hardcore street shakers seem to love choosing it for strap mighty engines. To be fair, it carries a sense of amusement when a car such as the Nash Metropolitan demolishes a modern aggressive drag car. This 1961 Nash Metropolitan is one such custom build car, which generates wicked power thorough a robust Chevrolet big block engine. It's a fantastic example of heaps of horsepower operating in harmony with excellent handling. Located in Pennsylvania, this dainty, scaled and balanced custom-built pro streetcar awaits its next lucky buyer.
