When's the last time someone saw one of these running around. Had one in the parking lot this morning...kind of a trip to see one of these out and about...not too many of them around. Doug

Very cool Doug. I have never seen one, would like to get a close look someday. Wonder how many still exist today?

There was a guy here selling a couple Nash Metros, they are a neat little "grocery getter."

[doug hodder]

about 400 were built and they are saying that about 49 still survive. The guy lived an interesting life.

Very interesting Doug. Thanks for sharing. Found a few videos on YouTube of the car, pretty neat car.

I have another rare one a Type III Saab Sonett

I have seen only three in my life time.
Only 10,000 were made and I am restoring one (I have two).
They used a Ford V4 engine and had a fiberglass body.

They are cool cars. My friend Alan had one for a while. Did you get a chance to talk to the owner?

There was one in an auction near here a few years ago. Word was that Jay Leno sent a buyer. I don't know who got it.

I don't know much about classic cars but the jet is very cool!

Kinda reminds me of the Tucker:

The Nethercutt Museum in Sylmar, California has a Tucker on display.
