America's first true post-war sports car and first Italian-American hybrid ran three times in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, in 1950, 1951, and 1952, recording 4th, 6th, and 3rd place, respectively, and it also finished 7th in the 1952 Mille Miglia. This was not a Corvette, but instead, it was the svelte Nash-Healey, the product of a chance meeting between British racing driver Donald Healey and Nash-Kelvinator President George Mason aboard the Queen Elizabeth in December 1949.

Healey had been looking for a reliable American drivetrain for his new sports roadster. Mason was looking for a sports car to create showroom excitement for his Nash automobiles. Their partnership would produce 507 cars during a four-year run, of which 150 were manufactured in 1952. These cars had bodywork that was created by the Italian design house of Pinin Farina and a Nash drivetrain (in twin-carburetor, Le Mans specification) with a three-speed overdrive transmission. With its big, torquey six, the Nash-Healey Roadster could cruise at 70 mph at a bit under 3,000 rpm, and it was a thrill to drive on the road or track. Even Superman drove one, with George Reeves taking the wheel in the popular 1950s television series.

The 1952 Nash-Healey Roadster featured here is finished in stunning bright red with an impeccably kept black interior. This incredible motorcar looks and performs wonderfully. It is benefiting from a beautiful older restoration that is beginning to show some light patina, which only adds to the charm of this motorcar. Nash-Healey Roadsters are rare and seldom appear on the market especially in this condition. We are proud to offer this investment-grade Nash-Healey to the collector or enthusiast who appreciates the potential of this great marque. Ready to make an investment that you can actually enjoy?
