In 1954 the Nash Ambassador became the first American car with a fully integrated front-end heat-and-air system — a compact, hood-mounted unit priced at $345 while Oldsmobile's trunk-mounted setup ran $550.
Nash's streamlined 1949 Ambassador folded its seats flat into something that could actually sleep three adults — a built-in bed, decades before anyone called it "van life."
This Ambassador’s wagon looked like a classic wood-bodied wagon, but the wood was just cladding over an all-steel roof and doors underneath.
The 1941-42 Ambassador 600 was the first popular American car built with single-welded "unibody" monocoque construction - what Nash branded "Unitized" - instead of a separate body-on-frame.
While the Great Depression wrecked the auto industry, Nash — maker of the Ambassador Eight — stayed in the black through 1932, the only American carmaker besides General Motors to manage it.
In 1927 a Swedish prince personally traveled to Nash's Kenosha, Wisconsin factory, where Scandinavian factory workers themselves delivered his custom Ambassador Six sedan.
