1955 Chevrolet Nomad
History
The Chevrolet Nomad was a station wagon model made off and on from
1955 to 1972 produced by Chevrolet. The Nomad is best remembered in
its Tri-Five, two-door 1955-57 form, and was considered a halo
model during its three-year production as a two-door station
wagon.
The name nomad in Greek, means someone who is roaming about for
pasture or is a member of a community of people who live in
different locations, moving from one place to another.
1955 Chevrolets received all-new styling. Advertised as "The Hot
One," the boxy new Chevy was crisp, clean, and thoroughly
modern-looking, and its popularity was shared with the Tri-Five
Chevrolets of this generation. Nomads, like Bel Airs, came loaded
with interior carpet, chrome spears on front fenders, chrome window
moldings, and full wheel covers.
