I am amazed that the body on that car was designed by Farina. I would like to see the original sketches from Farina to see if Nash botched the execution. Probably a radical Farina flowing design that they hacked into this POS.

Most, if not all, American cars of Farina design looked stupid and went over like lead ballons.

Man I would say that is the fault of the car companies. The 52 Nash-Healy was done well and the 62 Ferrari 275 or the 65 Dino Ferrari iconic cars beautiful lines. So many great Farina bodies on other makes all over the world. Yup me thinks Nash had some moron like Barit going its too low so move this out and this up.....and of course Nash had crap designers at the time so that must of helped barf this project.

This has to be the dumpiest car ever. I bet only dorks drove these. It almost makes Hashes look normal.

Lois Lane on the TV show drove a convertible one of these. She never seemed dorky but Clark did.

Lois drove a Nash = Lois was a dork. Clark was a dork too...until he got a Nash Healy.

The first Lois Phyllis Coates was far from a dork. She was quite the lady, sassy, sexy all rolled into one....Noel Neill the second Lois was a dork ...and Jimmy he was a supremo dork...

Yowza, now that toots is certainly no dork. The second Lois was the one I was thinking of. Yes, she and Jimmy were dorks.
