the factory built Nash prototype truck had a 1942 Nash 600 front clip and cabin up to the B pillar, where a panel was welded to the car body, to form the pickup cab.
The fabrication was placed on a 1936 Nash frame. Perfect Steel Body Co. provided a pickup box, and the rear fenders came from a 1941 Ambassador.
Later, one of the dealership’s mechanics bought it for use on his farm. This mechanic’s son disassembled it, like Jim’s truck, for a long period of time. In 1980, Nash Club member Don Lope bought and reassembled it.
Since this was one of the few factory trucks, and then it had a 2nd life as a shop truck, it's twice as interesting as any Ford or Chevy.
I doubt anyone under 40 knows what a Nash is, and no one under 30 has seen one.
Other than you and I, there probably are only a couple hundred people that think a Nash or a Hudson truck are interesting.

they were giving away new cars to Miss America way back in 1950
She a freshman at Phoenix College when she was crowned Miss America on September 11, 1949. In December of 1949, Jacque married her high school sweetheart, Douglas Cook, and thus violated her contract with Miss America.
Although the pageant allowed her to keep her crown, it instituted a "no marriage, no pregnancy" rule the following year. This rule remained in effect until 1999.
Mercer's national tour as Miss America included endorsements and promotions for Catalina swimwear and Lane cedar chests.
