My Dads car. WTF is it ?!?!?!

[Racer57]

Found this pic of a car my Dad had owned. I'm going to guess late 40s. Anyone know what it is ? Dad must have liked it, but I think its frikkin ugly !!

I dunno. In it's day it was probably an aero-streamliner.

Would hate to have to change a flat.

  it's a Nash ...... & the adjective your struggling for is SLEEK

Heres another pic. License plate is 1949, so its an 49 Nash Airflyte.  I've had turds that looked "sleek" !!  Shame I didn't see this before he passed away in '94 so I could razz him about it.   
Thanks a lot for the info !!!

Those are cool looking cars!  They are different looking for sure but they still look cool to me.  Ian Roussel built a 48 Packard on Full Custom Garage that turned out really nice.  The Packard and the Nash have a similar look to them IMO.

My Pop's had a 1940 Nash hotrod. Spent a few hours wrenching on it for him. Cool car, just not my style/cup of tea......
