1940 Nash 4081 Special Cabriolet news, pictures, and information

The 1940 Nash Special Cabriolet was designed by Count Alexis deSakhnoffsky for the few people who appreciated fine things and wanted a gentleman's convertible.

The car features a .25-inch lowered front end and a .75-inch lowered rear with specially designed windshield, top and doors. Other equipment includes a tachometer, front and rear carpets, backup lights, white sidewall tires, and an exhaust cutout switch easily accessible in the front door.

The car is powered by a 260.8 cubic-inch inline eight-cylinder engine and developing 115 horsepower. The engine is fitted with nine main bearings and requires seven quarts of oil. The car is 207-inches long riding on 125-inch wheelbase and has a top speed of 95-100 miles per hour. The original side curtains were found in the trunk.

The current owners purchased the car in 1971 and found a new 1940 penny embedded in the front floor pan's mastic sound deadening insulation. Body work was completed by Seaman & United Body Shop of Chicago.
