Nash-Healey (1952 to 1954)

The Nash-Healey was a series of sports cars introduced for the 1952 model year. The Nash-Healey was born from a collaboration between Nash and Healey. The chassis and engine of the cars was from a Nash Ambassador, while featuring tuning and performance work by Healey. For 1951, the styling was done by Healey, with that year's offering available solely as a roadster, and with a 3.8L inline six (235ci) engine. From 1952 onwards, Pininfarina updated the styling to fall in line with the Nash identity, and produced the bodywork themselves. This updated Nash-Healey also received a larger and more powerful 4.1L inline six (252ci) engine. Production of the Nash-Healey ended in 1954 with a total of 507 production examples built.
