The Chevrolet Nomad is at top of every bow tie fans wish listand#44; but not all are created equal. This gorgeous wagon gets it right with great colorsand#44; a custom A/C interiorand#44; and a fully sorted drivetrain that offers more power and more comfort than you could get from the factory in 1956. Finished in its factory-correct India Ivory and Twilight Turquoise two-toneand#44; this restored Nomad is a true gem. Everyone loves seeing the iconic raked rear hatch and wraparound glass that made for one of the most prolific icons of the 1950s. These were the top-of-the-line Chevys that ran with the Bel Airsand#44; and so these came with a lot of intricate brightwork. Thankfully all of these hard to source pieces are complete on this one – everything from to the 1956-only grilleand#44; to the sweeping side trimand#44; to the bright slats protecting the split rear hatch. The level of shine tells you there has been a heavy investment in keeping this Chevy looking premium. And when you also spot items like the Billet Specialties alloy wheelsand#44; you can instantly see this one goes well beyond factory specs. One look insideand#44; and you can tell how much was invested in this custom build. It starts with the leather buckets up front. These not only have better bolstering than anything that came out of the 1950s for superior comfortand#44; but they are also power adjustable. The pristine cream color on these front seats is not only shared with the rear onesand#44; but also the custom panelsand#44; headlinerand#44; and even the new center console. In totaland#44; this one has that great uniform appearance that everyone loves to see at the shows. As the name suggestsand#44; the Nomads are meant to cruise the open roadand#44; and so this one has great features for everyoneand#44; including a Kenwood AM/FM/CD stereo and ice-cold air conditioning. But like any good custom classicand#44; the best treats are reserved for the driver. You get a stylish three-spoke sports steering wheel for your left handand#44; and your right one may never want to leave the Bandamp;M shifter. Plusand#44; you stay completely informed on everything thats going on with your classic thanks to the cool blue glow of the Dakota Digital gauges. Nomads are so rare that they are always worth showing off. Thats why the engine bay way restored to be a true attraction. The polished valve coversand#44; master cylinderand#44; air grabberand#44; pulleysand#44; alternatorand#44; and so much more look great sparkling next to the exterior-matching Twilight Turquoise. The largest motor you could get in 1956 was a 265 cubic-inch V8and#44; but we all know theres plenty more power that can be hadand#44; so this one was upgraded to powerful and robust 350 ci. Combined with the upgraded dual exhaustand#44; this icon now has that perfect vintage V8 growl. But more than just powerand#44; this Nomad has been upgraded to an aluminum radiator w/electric fan so you can keep running cool even when youve got the A/C on in traffic. On the road it feels terrific thanks to feature like the TH350 three-speed automatic transmissionand#44; power steeringand#44; independent front suspension w/added sway barand#44; and front disc brakes. Less than 8and#44;000 Nomads were produced in 1956and#44; making them the lowest production of the Bel Air line by far. Now 60 years laterand#44; you are going to be hard pressed to find one that is as complete or stunning as this example. So hurry up and call todayand#44; because this rare traveler is going fast! |
