Lil' Nash

[Mr.Gussett]

Getting busy!

As much as I really like pro-street,That will not happen.The rear windows will NOT be filled in, and I will not chop it!I do have the chance to get another nash wagon from the same guy I got this one from that might become a nash-camino at a later date
Zack has been working on his Nash chassis when he is home,but he has been working out of state allot.He is sending out his 454 for his Nash this week to be worked over for a complete rebuild with a healthy bumpstick and allot of new stuff![cl
Racer93 said we need a sign infront of our shop that reads "Welcome to NASHville" and..............That might just happen LOL!
I'll continue to keep the build updated![P
Later

On my way!

Well today was a good day!
There is a swap meet about 10 miles from my house at the Ross Co. fair grounds and today was the 4th annual! I took my Pontiac wagon and a bunch of other stuff and Sold almost everything![cl
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I am ordering my new IFS for my Nash wagon Monday! The LiL' Nash is starting to come together![

Now thats a cool ride

No chop or window infills, green flames and lowered[ddd. Can't wait to see it happen[P

 

[Mr.Gussett]

More parts!

Well, I sold my Pontiac wagon and the guy who bought it had me come over to his garage and check out all of his other stuff that he's been buying!
lots of stuff to look at too!
As we were leaving, he says " Oh, I have some tires and wheels for sale"
"got them on some trading around with another guy"

They are the exact size that I was planning on getting for the Lil' Nash and when he said " They are BRAND SPANK'N NEW " Not even put on any car yet!"

OOOOOOHHH I said?? How much?
" HOW about $500. ?

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM OK ![cl

So here they are at my shop! Whatcha think ? Halibrand Sprint 11

Ya done good!

As a big fan of little cars I'm very interested in this build. Throw in your skill and imagination and this will be one cool and unique Nash.

 

[darkk]

Yup....that could be so cool done up with a bad ass motor...

 

[Mr.Gussett]

Update

Well slowly working on it!
I cut all the front suspension out (including frame) and fabbed up new frame rails 1 1/2'' narrower and welded in for new Fatman Mustang ii suspension.[
also removed rear axle ! I disassembled rear springs,cleand up,painted each leaf and reassembled them!
Found some marker lights that fit perfect from swap meet in Springfield last Sat.They are from 60's corvette!
