What a beautiful dash board. I'm not sure if it's solid wood, but it looks it, and the concept of a solid wood dash panel is intriguing me. I'm all for it for the looks of the craftsmanship and wood working. The two gloveboxes are great looking, all the light colored knobs and handle accents appear like ivory, most likely it's bakelite (an early plastic material).
the upper piece of the inner door is a nice touch.
Quite a presentation of display advertising
the armrests look very furniture like, and not similar to modern drab armrests. Very nice.
A 12 cylinder distributor cap
Dual ignition coils? Or one as a ready spare?
This wasn't the first time that Nash used the name Lafayette. Between 1920 and 1924 the Lafayette was a high-priced luxury make built by Nash to compete against Cadillac, Packard and other similar makes. The Lafayette featured a 5.7 litre V8 engine. Just under 2,000 were built before Nash stopped production.
