SHOW IT - DRIVE IT - LOVE IT!CALL JEFF TODAY - 410-562-9319FABULOUS BLAST FROM 1956! WHERE WERE YOU WHEN THIS RARE BEAUTY WAS BORN?FULL FRAME OFF RESTORATION TO BRING THIS NOMAD BACK TO SHOW QUALITY CONDITION.
THERE WERE NO NUMBERS MATCHING CARS FROM CHEVROLET BACK IN 1956. THE FACTORIES DIDN'T DO THAT TIL THE 60'S.
SO DATE CODES ON THE COMPONENTS RULE.
THE DUAL QUADS ON THIS SHOW PIECE ARE ORIGINALS FROM '56. SO IS THE 265 ENGINE, REBUILT AND SET UP TO HANDLE THE DUAL CARBS.
THERE WERE ONLY 225 SETS OF THESE CARBS BUILT FOR NOMADS IN 1956. SAME WITH THE CORRECT INTAKE MANIFOLD, AND THE SPECIAL PERFORMANCE HEADS. THIS CAR HAS THEM ALL. TOOK OVER 2.5 YEARS TO LOCATE THESE ULTRA RARE PIECES AND THEN ALMOST A YEAR TO HAVE ALL RESTORED TO NEW CONDITION. HOW MUCH DID THE 265 ENGINE AND REBUILD AND ALL THE ORIGINAL HIGH PERFORMANCE PARTS COST HIM?? OVER $19,000.00 DOLLARS AND CLOSE TO 4 YEARS WHEN ALL WAS SAID AND DONE. THEN ADD ON THE MONEY TO CONVERT IT FROM THE 2 SPEED POWER GLIDE AUTOMATIC TO THE OVERDRIVE 700R4 AUTOMATIC. THE FRESH 700R4 IS MUCH MORE RESPONSIVE TAKING OFF AND THE OVERDRIVE ASPECT IS WONDERFUL. THIS IS A SUPER RUNNING, DRIVING, AND HANDLING NOMAD, SHOW PIECE.THE BAT WING AIR CLEANER WAS FOR DUAL QUAD CARS ONLY. WAIT TIL YOU LIFT THE HOOD FOR PEOPLE TO SEE!
