This 1934 LaFayette Series 110 is a Standard Brougham sedan that spent time in Minnesota, Missouri, and Arizona before it was purchased by the seller in March 2004. After spending seven years in storage, service performed in July 2026 included the installation of a replacement six-volt battery as well as cleaning the fuel system and sealing the cooling system. The car is finished in tan and brown over brown cloth upholstery. Power comes from a 218ci inline-six paired with a three-speed manual transmission. Equipment includes artillery-style wheels, turn signals, rear-hinged rear doors, an integrated luggage trunk, a dash-mounted mechanical clock, a rear footrest, and a rear window shade. This Series 110 LaFayette by Nash is now offered with literature, spare parts, tools, service records, and a clean South Dakota title in the seller’s name listing the car as a 1934 Nash.

Indianapolis, Indiana-based LaFayette Motors began producing luxury cars as an independent automaker in 1920. Charles W. Nash was named president of the company in 1921, and it was absorbed by Nash Motors in 1924. Nash resurrected the LaFayette nameplate for entry-level models beginning in 1934 with the LaFayette Built By Nash, and it was available in five body styles for the year.

The Model 118 Standard Brougham “Speed Stream” bodywork on this example was built by the Seaman Body Corporation of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and designed by Alexis de Sakhnoffsky. It was repainted in cream with brown fenders and headlight buckets under previous ownership. Equipment includes turn signals, a centrally hinged hood with side vents, a single windshield wiper, running boards, rear-hinged rear doors, and an integrated luggage trunk. The hood mascot is missing, the right taillight lens is cracked, and imperfections in the finish can be seen in the gallery below. Corrosion is noted on one of the doors and around various paint cracks.

Cream-painted artillery-style wheels wear chrome LaFayette-branded covers, and they are mounted with bias-ply whitewall tires that were installed in 2004. A spare wheel is stowed in a brown hard cover out back. The Series 110 LaFayette rode on a 113″ wheelbase and featured mechanical drums at all four corners.

The cabin features front and rear bench seats trimmed in brown pleated cloth along with color-coordinated door panels. A black mat covers the front floorboards, and brown carpeting is fitted in the back. Equipment includes a woodgrain painted steel dashboard, a mechanical clock, a robe bar, a rear-passenger footrest, and a rear window shade

The three-spoke steering wheel wears a black vinyl wrap, and it is mounted ahead of a 100-mph speedometer flanked by gauges for fuel level, oil pressure, amperage, and engine temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 42k miles, and total mileage is unknown.

The 218ci inline-six is said to have been rebuilt prior to 2004, and it features seven main bearings, side valves, a single-barrel carburetor, and a spin-on oil filter. Output was factory rated at 75 horsepower. The car retains a six-volt electrical system, and a replacement battery was installed in July 2026. Cooling system sealing was also added, and a timing adjustment and oil change were performed. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a Synchro Shift three-speed manual transmission. The fuel system was cleaned in 2026.
