A Rare Model From A Now-Defunct Automaker
If you work as a picker, very few things could be more exciting than coming across a rare car from a defunct automobile manufacturer. The Pickers dropped by an AMC dealership when they were in North Carolina and saw two Nash-Healy model cars that dated back from 1954. Nash Motors had been a subsidiary of American Motors from 1954 to 1957 before partnering with the British sports automaker Donald Healey for this model. They only created 506 units of the model and the Pickers decided to buy these two units for a grand total of $46k.
Buying A Cyclecar For $12,000
Do you think you would recognize this if you stumbled upon it? The Cyclecar was introduced in the ‘10s and ‘20s as a cheaper means of transportation. It continues to have great historical value even though it was phased out after economy cars started to go for sale. The Pickers found this Cyclecar, which was made in London by the St. Mark’s Engineering Co. Built with a 1196cc Henderson engine, it ended up selling for $12,000.
