46" wide!? The restriction on ATVs is usually 48 or 50". Add a straddle style seat and you could run that down the four wheeler trails!

The thought of offending you didn't cross my mind, so I'm glad you're not. 
Eclectic/Unique/Different/Novel/Peerless etc. If I had any plan to utilize the original drive train of any of these vehicles I'd consider more of those options.

Four wheeler trails, I had a '90 Grand Prix that went down some ATV trails, you could take that 360 spelunking. 
Triumph 10 (aka the TR10 aka Standard 10)

The only thing Nash about this is the doors and the hood scoop/emblem. Everything else looks Spridget to me.

Do an ATV trail in a '78 Delta 88 and call me back.
Not super small, but definitely different. How about something like this.

I think its more "all Nash" than you think.

Ford Thames complete with SBC. Built during the 50's According to owner he bought it as a very rusty shell.
I saw a Citroen 2CV outside a mechanics shop on main st. in Miami OK this weekend.
In reply to 4eyes:
Looks like something I would have built as a kid.
Here's an updated list with a lot of ya'll's suggestions, and still more I've found while searching:
On a related note; anyone know how "big" a late '50's Nash Rambler is? Some pictures I've seen have me thinking it's about the size of a Mini Van/Countryman others have me thinking it's closer to the size of a similar vintage Bel Air.
Thanks so much for all of the feed back! If anyone comes up with anything else we're missing speak up.
I've seen all of 4 or 5 of the original list in the last few months on local CLs. Aside from an Anglia, none of the other British cars will turn up. Ooops, I forgot, someone here in Jacksonville is trying to sell a "old" Mini, but I wouldn't buy such a rust-trap from a seller in this state (FL.)
A Nash Rambler is small, but not as small as a Countryman, I think. It's definitely smaller than a Bel Air.
What about the Honda Z600?

IIRC the Rambler was/is about the same size as a Mercury Comet/Ford Falcon.

Do they come without ther rear-engined weirdo option?
??? I am pretty sure the 10 is a front engined car.
In reply to 93EXCivic:
Added, I'd not compared the N and Z enough to realize they were that different until you brought it up. Thanks!
In reply to ultraclyde:
If it were my TR10 it would come with the driver seat mounted weirdo option.
In reply to 4eyes:
Thanks, I was leaning toward them being too big. I'd seen a couple at Goodguys earlier in the summer, but don't have the best memory, and there's no real "measuring stick" in any pictures I took.
I didn't read everything here, but I did wonder if the Fiat 850 and 500s made your list, why not an X1/9?
For size comparison:
For how cool they can be:
Ford Festiva
Add: B6T, Aspire brakes, Performance parts from festivamotorsports, Miata rims
Also plenty of online support.
how about old saab 96's?

The 96 might be worth a look. I personally would love a two stroke one.
