    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.

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.
