  • 1.01 Cars of the 50'S –
    American Motors Corporation Model Descriptions and General Information 1.01 Cars of the 50's – Hudson and Nash Combine to Become American Motors Once the plan fell through to acquire Packard, Nash moved ahead with its own grand scheme - which began in 1955 with the real start of American Motors. For the 1955 year, American Motors combined the Nash and the Hudson product lines under a common manufacturing strategy, while retaining both the Nash and Hudson established dealer networks. The fast-selling Rambler model was sold under both the Nash and Hudson labels in 1955 and 1956, eventually becoming a marque in its own right, and the mainstay of the company. Regardless of what they were called, these were badge-only engineered Ramblers (along with similar Metropolitans) were identical, aside from hubcaps, nameplates, and a few other minor trim details. The pre-existing full-size Nash product line was continued and the Nash Statesman and Ambassador were handed over to Hudson where they were heavily restyled to become the "new" Hudson Wasp and Hudson Hornet. The two makes, while sharing a common body shell, were quite distinct, perhaps even more than they should have been. They were at least as different from one another as Chevrolet and Pontiac, and in some ways more so. The 1956 Ambassador V8. Hudsons and Nashes each used their own engines as they had Placed in the lighter Rambler body to ensure previously: the Hudson Hornet continued to offer the famous 308 good performance, the engine displaced only cubic inch I6 that had been America's stock car racing (NASCAR) 250 cubic inches, but it was a champion during the early 1950s, while the Wasp now used the very modern design.
