1932 Nash Advanced Eight Convertible Sedan

Charles Nash launched Nash Motors in 1916 after resigning the presidency of General Motors following a dispute with Bill Durant. The Nash quickly became an American favorite.

After building a solid reputation as a manufacturer of solid, medium priced automobiles, Nash decided to go 'up market' in 1930 with its 'Twin Ignition Eight' that developed 100 horsepower and rode on 124- and 133-inch wheelbase chassis.

Like many manufacturers faced with plunging sales after the 1929 crash, Nash produced a series of remarkably luxurious cars in an effort to add prestige and promote their brand. The 1930 to 1934 Nash twin-ignition Advanced Eights were the largest Nashes in a period of sumptuous, beautiful styling and boasted lots of special features.

For 1932, the Nash Advanced Eight was available as a Sedan, Convertible Roadster, Convertible Sedan, and a coupe. Power was from a straight-eight overhead valve engine delivering 125 horsepower. The wheelbase measured 133-inches.
