caption_attribution_description: The LeMay Family Collection has a lot of cars. This room was filled, bumper to bumper and just a path between them. All the cars were nice, either restored or excellent original.
context_page_description: The Nash Statesman is a full-sized automobile that was built by Nash Motors for the 1950–1956 model years. The Statesman was the mid-level product of Nash Motors' automobile series and was positioned below the top-line Nash Ambassador, but above the Nash Rambler.
context_section_description: A new design was introduced for the 1952 model year featuring a large "envelope-bodied" sedan with enclosed wheels that were characteristic for Nash. The all-new notchback Statesman design coincided with Nash's 50th anniversary and included styling by Pininfarina, the Italian designer.
  The 1954 models included the outside mounted "continental" spare tire increasing trunk space and making emergency tire changes easier.
  The 1956 models received larger and slanted front parking lights, as well as larger tail lamps.
  The final Nash Statesman models were built in August, 1956. Starting in 1957 all full-size Nash models were Ambassadors.
