1955 CHEVROLET NOMAD



Chevy darlings green and old will take a sparkle to this 1955 Chevrolet Nomad Resto Mod that intermingles present day drive and materials with touches of wistfulness, the recent obvious in its brilliant two-tone Gypsy Red-and-Shoreline Beige paint plan.

That same combo is extended into the extravagant pattern inner part that headlines Ostrich calfskin upholstery, Mercedes-Benz covering, power windows, pattern reassure and checks and Vintage Air cooling and warming.



A more critical look discloses every last trace of the countless portions that donate to its sized up quality of $150,000: the smoothed motor room is home to another GM LS6 Corvette case motor donning a Vortech supercharger and an uniquely-created blanket painted to match the auto and festooned with Gold-fulfilled “Nomad” symbols; an amazing touch that epitomizes the workmanship on presentation here.

The LS6 is supported by a GM 4L60E 4-speed mechanical overdrive transmission and a triangulated 4-connection back close, with coilover suspension, a Heidts front close, Billet Specialties wheels with Nitto Invo elastic and Wilwood disc brakes with cleaned calipers finishing the completely painted and show-value definite undercarriage.
