Is that a Nash or a Metropolitan? My dad had two or three Metropolitans in the late 50s-early 60s to drive to and from work. When he got the first one the three of us kids could fit easily and comfortably in the back seat. When he traded in the last one, I don’t think even one of us could sit up straight back there.

I mainly remember it as the car Lois Lane drove in the '50's Superman series
This is Phyllis Coates from the Superman and the Mole People, movie in 1951. The TV series started the next year with Coates, who was replaced in 1953 by the Lois Lane I remember, played by Noel Neill. I haven't been able to locate a picture of Neill with the car.
