Nash Healey Review on Hagerty Website

As some of you undoubtedly already know, if you have classic car insurance with Hagerty and give them an email address, they send you a periodic email with "Hagerty Happenings Online." Actually it usually has something interesting and so I don't mind it at all. In fact this month they feature a review of the Nash Healey and I thought you might like to read it. Click on this:

Nash Healey Article on hagerty.com

Then on another page of their current edition, titled "Ten Collector Cars to Collect in a Gas Crisis," they include the Nash Healey and state, "With its 125 or 135 hp Nash Ambassador six and three-speed overdrive gearbox, this rarity can get up to 28 mpg. It's an awesome 'economy' car."

Hmmm... I sure never thought of a Nash Healey as a mileage champion or economy car... methinks perhaps someone on the staff there at Hagerty recently acquired one and would like to see interest in them increase... call me suspicious by nature... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif

Reid - there was a nice 53 burgundy Nash Healey coupe sold at the Hershey Auction this past weekend. I assume it was sold, since it had a no reserve sticker on the windshield and was parked in the sold section of the Krause lot. Does anyone know the sales price?
The buyer not only got a classic but also an economy car as well!!!

Reid, if they get any more expensive you probably won't even be able to afford writing about them. Who is that guy on the far coast that has a barn full of them ? He doesn't restore em,or drive em,or sell em just collects them.---Keoke

The Guy has more than 80 of these babies and he is located outside of Baltimore. I talked to fella who supposedly seen the collection - has been told that none are for sale. He must be waiting for the price of gas to go a little higher, to make it worthwhile for him to sell.

Yes HLY 106, that must be the guy I was talking about. I hear some of them only need a wash and gassing up to be excellent cars.---Keoke
