I love the gray ladies, but it is hard to find low-cost, mid-grade pieces without some sort of PMD.

Does the rim nick on this one render it ungradable?

It's a pretty coin, solid VF. I am not sure the rim ding would make it ungradable if you mean sending it in to a TPG. Not worth sending in but if you can get it at a decent price it may fit in nicely with your other walkers.
Rest in Peace

The coin in the link is a 1934-S, your title in the topic is 1942-S. I am guessing you just typed in the wrong date.

This does not look like a Details coin to me. I am at VF-20.
Rest in Peace

F15. Reverse scratches, mainly on the eagle are problematic.
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS
THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

F-15 to me given lack of breast plate detail, and the reverse is no better.

Even more than the obverse, the lack of detail on the reverse eagle's right-facing wing keeps this totally out of the VF range. Skeptics please review this pic.

This coin grades Fine.

It's a solid VF --- at least in comparison to the VF 20 example at PCGS photograde. The reverse might just barely slide into F territory, but the obverse has way too much detail remaining. Whether the rim ding on the front takes it down a grade I cannot say, but to claim it lacks enough breast or feather detail for VF does not seem correct.
