The long wheelbase Nash is the one I picture when I hear bathtub. Sheer insanity at it’s best!
This one is a ‘50

Nash for me. Of the five, it looks most like an upside-down bathtub to me.

What a great idea and selection today John! I'm with Pete, Nash for "bathtubby" looks

If I rate them on true "BATH TUB" look, it goes like the: 1) NASH 2) PACKARD 3) HUDSON 4) LINCOLN 5) MERCURY.
But if I rate them from "Best Looking" to "Worst looking", it goes like this: 1) HUDSON 2) MERCURY 3) LINCOLN 4) NASH 5) PACKARD.

Awww Mom! If it's the 1st. of the month and I GOTTA take a bath, I'm going first class!
That Packard screams for me to immerse myself within it's elegance! Next would be the Hudson, then Nash and whatever is left over as a tie.
Will someone PLEASE pass me a towel!?!

I think the Hudson does it best. Next up Packard and Lincoln for luxury. The Nash looks like fun.

Nash is the only one that looks like a bathtub to me. The best looks for me is the Mercury, Hudson, Lincoln, Packard and Nash. Based on bathtub criteria alone, NASH.

WOW! Complete agreement with you George. Except for the spelling of Packard, ha ha.

I voted Hudson for best looking, was I supposed to vote for the most upside down bathtub? Nash would be the turned over bathtub of course.
