Here’s a short clip of the Yankee Mets car club at Charles Gould’s annual Mini and Micro car show at the Larz Anderson Park Museum of Transportation in Brookline, MA. Some beautiful Metropolitan cars on display, and not surprisingly, beautiful Metropolitan people in close proximity.

We’re working on a number of new and fun Nash Metropolitan-flavored items for the LittleMetro items on eBay…necklaces, earrings, keychains, playing cards and such. Right now we’re just waiting on some samples from the supplier so we can check the quality. Expect exciting news on the coming goodies soon.

Now everybody has something to wear to the next car show or cruise night! Check out these cute Nash Metropolitan Onesies we found at Cafepress. Also available in pink and baby blue!
Cafepress is a great place to find cool design on t-shirts, hats, totebags and more. Its also an easy way to make shirts for your club or show. Just sign up for a Cafepress account and make some shirts!

An excellent slideshow of the wonderful Nash Metropolitans at the 2008 Regional Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Show. Hosted by the Rocky Mountain Mets at Castle Rock, Colorado in June. Some beautiful Mets on display and on parade as they drove to the summit of Pikes Peak…recreating Floyd Clymer’s early road tests of the Metropolitan. How cool is that!

Motor Week’s 1994 feature on Metropolitans and their owners. Enjoy!

We found a great way to display pictures that you (or anybody) have posted to flickr. This is the dynamic Flickriver badge to put on your profile, group, blog or website. We found it easy to use, workable on any website, and fast to load. And now, some flickr pictures tagged nashmetropolitan.

I’ve just unveiled some new-look Nash Metropolitan Wristwatches at All-4-Corners, my eBay store. These are fantastic looking…a cute Metro parked below a 60s-Vegas looking sign…”Drive a Fabulous Metropolitan!”

These very cool watches come in a Unisex silver-tone. The watch casing measures about 1 1/2″ in diameter, the stainless steel watch band fits most wrists from approx. 6 1/2″ to 8″. Miyota watch movement made by Citizen. Battery included.

Check out the selection Nash Metropolitan Wristwatches at All-4-Corners. This design comes featuring 7 different color Metropolitans…black, green, yellow,blue, red, turquoise and coral which is pictured here.

If you’re looking for a bunch of Nash Metropolitans all in one place, check out the Mitten Mets Invitational July 17-20.  This is being held in conjuction with the Onsted Show Car Nationals, which is a large car show
held on the grounds of Michigan International Speedway.  The Metropolitan is the featured car this year. 

I’m real happy to be providing some items for the auction to help the Mitten Mets offset some of the costs of this great event. Make sure you’re there for the auction, bid early and bid often!

Yes, I’m sure there are more pressing matters to be dealt with, but this is what we accomplished this morning. Thanks to PaperToys.com and their wonderful cut-out diagram for the Nash Metropolitan. Fun was had by all.
