Nash Advanced Six

The Nash Advanced Six was the larger of the two six-cylinder Nash cars of the late 1920s, built at Kenosha, Wisconsin, from 1925 to 1929 as the successor to the earlier Nash Six. The Model 160 kept the overhead-valve six of 4.1 litres but rose to 60 horsepower, with a nickel-plated radiator shell and balloon tyres to tell it apart. Wheelbases and bodies varied widely, seating two to seven. The Model 260 of 1926 brought softer lines and a 4.6 litre engine, power reached 69 horsepower in 1927, 70 in the Model 360 of 1928 and 78 in the Model 460 of 1929. In 1930 the Twin Ignition Six and Twin Ignition Eight replaced it. The name came back for the 1935 model year on a six taken over from the Big Six.
