Will it Run and Drive ? Abandoned 1960 Nash Metropolitan

Will it Run and Drive? Will this abandoned Metropolitan be the rebound fight the crew needed to bounce back from last week's humiliating defeat, or will they suffer yet another beatdown at the hands of a different piece of garbage? Although small this Nash is no lightweight and has many dirty tricks under its wheel wells. Gotta come hang out to find out.. throw the towel if were getting wooped too bad! Thanks for tunin' in!

[@francoisbouchard602]

[@TheCrackerBox]

Thanks for another , Brother!

[@HustlehousePA1978]

Hey thank you again! Always appreciated. We'll keep em' coming

[@Bob-Whiting]

Ya know, my buddy had a 1959 Metropolitan in two-tone black & white like the two-piece Metro on the trailer. I had a 1964 English Ford Cortina Station-Wagon and a 1967 MG Midget and they all had MG motors in 'em like yer wife's new toy does. For those who don't know, those are all Positive Ground electrical systems with Lucas parts. This brings back some great memories, not like the Satellite-X sitting back there brings back memories of my 1970 Roadrunner, but great memories nonetheless! Good luck and keep 'em coming, we're rootin' for you!

[@HustlehousePA1978]

Hey, always good hearin from ya. I wasn't aware of the positive ground thing. We had her hooded up backwards! No wonder it aint charging! lol. Thanks for the heads up and for stopping in again. Appreciate ya Buddy!

Are you sure he wasn’t on Jim Beam when he bought that Sunbeam?

[@HustlehousePA1978]

Musta been a bump on the head or something. Severe junk addiction syndrome! lol. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@miken8rbiradio220]

The part toward the end racing that metropolitan around would have been me at 14 years old. Since I had one about the same kind of shape for a field car. Very entertaining, thank You you brought back old memories.😁👍

[@HustlehousePA1978]

Hey you know what they say... We have to get older every year but we can act young as long as we want! lol Well were glad you liked it and that it took you ''back when''. Thats what the hobby is all about! Thanks for watching and commenting. Appreciate ya!

[@mattskustomkreations]

She’s a keeper!!! The wife that is, not so sure about the little Nash…

[@joesprague1464]

Hey,she said she wanted a little car and he brought home VERY little car,mostly rust and a glove box lid.

[@HustlehousePA1978]

yep! can't feed myself! lol. The Nash might not make it though! To be determined. Thanks for watching!

[@HustlehousePA1978]

If that car was food, we woulda starved the first day. I mean she's all but gone! Still fun though. Appreciate ya watching!

[@Bobby-rv8ue]

Couldn't have said it better man

[@HustlehousePA1978]

@Bobby-rv8ue covered all that lol appreciate you watching

[@craigpimlott204]

The Engine is what was known as the pre B series engine .the original engine was 1200 cc which was the first OHV engine BMC built for the 1949 Austin A40 Devon ,then the Dorset .after the original side valves up till 1949 .they went on to be in the Wolseley 1500 ,the Riley 1.5 .the Austin Cambridge .then they took them out to 1622cc in the later 60’s Cambridge ,and Morris Oxford then they took them out to 1800cc for the MGB sports cars and the Morris Marina TC .great engines bullet proof reliability the same as the smaller A series engines that were put in the original mini the earlier Morris minor Also the Austin A30and A35 and A40 farina .the Wolseley hornet and Riley elf ..

[@HustlehousePA1978]

Hey! Thanks for the info. What's really cool is being in the hobby for years and just now stumbling onto a whole new make and model with a history all its own. I can tell the engine design is bullet proof. You can sense it by how good it runs after sitting so long; much like the 223 ford we just did. Both engines run like a top even on older plugs and old gas. Thanks again for the info and thanks for watching!

[@mikewilliams2072]

PVC poly vinyl chloride , plastic pipe the white stuff!

[@HustlehousePA1978]

Heck yea; that stuff..or rubber hose we don't care! lol Thanks for all the comments

Hey guys... I have a 61 metropolitan.. it has the trunk and the b.m 1500 and I think it the best little car ever.. and amazing mpg..

[@HustlehousePA1978]

They are awesome little cars and ours didn’t put up much of a fight after sitting a really long time. I give them 3 thumbs up! Thanks for watching and Merry Christmas!

Is that your son? U guys do good 👍together, very funny!

[@HustlehousePA1978]

Thanks! Yea that's him! Yea we always have fun in the garage together. He's in an upcoming video with a 61 Ford. He about knocked himself out in it! lol. gotta see that one.

[@smockassingaround]

@@HustlehousePA1978 that is funny, can't wait to see it. I can't stop laughing when you get him laughing 😂good stuff bud 👍!

[@HustlehousePA1978]

yea man he's loads of fun. Sharp as a tack and a 3 time PA state champion wrestler! Hey you need to show them chickens in your videos! Everybody loves chickens! lol. We might end up with a goat here at some point for the channel. Just afraid one would stomp dents all thru all the hoods! Thanks for the compliment buddy!

[@smockassingaround]

@@HustlehousePA1978 wow good reason to be proud, and I will put the chickens 🐔 in my videos lol, thanks! And good 👍job with those brakes I lose my cool with brakes, but another great video! I watched first thing this morning. And tell your wife she done a great job 👏filming.

[@HustlehousePA1978]

Yea she's always been good with the camera and sometimes I don't see what she filmed till I'm editing and get blown away by some of these shots. She's got the knack for sure. I screw it up every time I touch the camera! Yours does really good too, knowing when to show the project and when to turn the camera on you. Takes more thought than what folks think. Were both some lucky Guys buddy! lol Thanks for the compliment!

[@rogerdumais7637]

I. Had a 61 rambler metropolitan I loved that car drove all week on two dollars of gas please try to save her

[@HustlehousePA1978]

Its really rough... it would take alot! But we have it waiting in the wings for some future videos. We'll see what happens!

[@akawireguy1197]

The lesson here is don't look down the barrel of the gun while you try to figure out what's wrong with it.

[@HustlehousePA1978]

Ha ha you got that right! I learned a couple lessons with that little hemorrhoid. Pain in my face elbow, back an much more lol Car hates me lol That little pain is in time out for now lol Jk Thanks for watching and commenting. Appreciate it Stop on back I’m sure it is ready for a round two here eventually. That car ain’t done with me yet lol

[@lamvandanh1993]

Can it work anymore ?

[@HustlehousePA1978]

Oh yea! It drank all that black gas but put a little more in it and it will fire right up! Thanks for watching!

[@patrickdombrosky6951]

Turn the back half one into a little tow behind trailer

[@HustlehousePA1978]

Yep! That was the plan! Not sure though, that metropolitan is totally roached underneath. Not sure there's enough left to fix!

[@russmurphy7062]

Filtering old gas like you have, I'd have used coffee filters to strain the crap out. Friendly hint bro.

[@HustlehousePA1978]

Thats a good idea, We don't have a coffee pot in the garage but wouldn't be a bad idea to have a few filters around for straining. Appreciate the hint and appreciate ya watching!

[@KenthGustafsson300]

Dont scrap it just fix it so it is road worthy...

[@HustlehousePA1978]

I had plans for this thing even if it was pretty rough but dang on... This thing is super rough.. Above the windshield is the worst part. It will be back in some shape or form.. If we do go ahead with it, we have an awesome idea for the build. You won't wanna miss that one. Thanks for watching and commenting.. Appreciate ya!

[@TabithaWise-k6g]

I love the channel guys i can tell you I am not a fan of the car, it's bad Interesting 🤔

[@HustlehousePA1978]

We are glad you like the channel, unfortunately some of the vehicles we get are not for everyone’s taste but we try to get a little bit of variety for everyone lol sorry. Hopefully you will stick around and like the next one and then there’s always the point blank, it just what we could afford to drag home that week lol ha ha Hey we do appreciate you watching and stopping by goof or unpleasant comments. Honesty is much appreciated…

[@HustlehousePA1978]

Oh it was beggin to run flat out in high gear! Not enough room between the fences! lol. Shes a ripper I tell ya!

[@rockinrodney66]

@HustlehousePA1978 you make me miss the days when I was an ASE master tech & MD state inspector. Love them old cars pre. OBD2. only 10 wires thru the firewall. Good old days. Now you need a 15k dollar snapon scanner and a degree in electrical engineering. All I do now is heavy equipment. My favorite tool is a forklift. Thanks for being a cool dude.

[@HustlehousePA1978]

Well thanks for watching! Yea man we just can't get into the newer stuff. Much respect for the economy and drivability of the newer stuff but personally, I just like the slight return in my mind to better times. These old cars and trucks and a little old-time tunes take ya back like nothing else. Thanks to you too for bein cool and hangin out with us!

[@stevenmenary2862]

What does "casing killer" say on your shirt? What does it mean? Have anything to do with tires? That's what Sleeperdude calls tires, casing. Sounds about right for backward Tennessee folks.

[@HustlehousePA1978]

Yep that’s genuine Sleeperdude merchandise right there! Yea we’re big fans and buy their stuff when we can. Him and puddin. They have awesome channels

[@earlparsons9653]

Make a frame and put V8 in

[@HustlehousePA1978]

Oh man, If you could see the plans we had for this thing. We were gonna do just that. We were good with the bad floors and frame but the rot above the windshield may change our plans. We'll see though. Thanks for watching!

[@danbasta3677]

This has got to be the most ugliest car ever produced. Never liked the looks of them.
