HCS CLASSIC CAR EVALUATION REPORT

Low production

The 990 engine is a twin ignition OHV straight eight, 298.6 ci built on a 133-inch wheelbase. The body style 998 phaeton was $1,595 factory priced. The 7-passenger phaeton would have been extremely low production. Unfortunately, actual Nash production numbers for those years are lost. Rarity in this case makes this Nash phaeton among the most desirable to collectors now. This car could be the sole survivor 998 phaeton extant.

Power and precision

The 1932 Nash Phaeton is powered by an impressive 125 horsepower, 5300 cubic capacity eight cylinder engine with twin ignition and paired with a four-speed manual transmission. Under the hood, you'll find a well functioning and sought after Stromberg Uur 2 carburetor, along with a magnificent manifold that provides the car with sufficient fuel.This Nash 998 is part of a collection of cars located in Antwerp, Belgium that we are selling for a client in France.
