The 1955 Chevrolet Nomad is one of the coolest classics around. It
only gets better when it has been custom crafted with a cool color
theme, street machine attitude, modern luxury interior, overdrive
transmission, plenty of V8 power, and much more.
The Nomad is such an icon it doesn't need an introduction. But what
we really need to walk you through are all the big investments that
create the powerful presence you see on this one. Bahama Blue is a
cool color you'd expect on a '50s machine. But the metallic glow
and clearcoat shine instantly announce this is something far more
modern and special. The same goes for the silver on the roof that
creates the classic two-tone, but with a much more modern and
sporty flair. The sleek look of this one is no accident with
expertly deleted badging and door handles. It's part of the overall
sporty attitude you see continued on custom pieces like the
louvered hood and the Torq Thrust wheels with extra wide rubber in
the rear. Even with all these upgrades, you can also tell they made
sure to invest nicely to keep the chrome bumpers shining like
mirrors and the panels straight for the side trim to appear almost
seamless. So it's the ideal mix of cool history and an unmistakable
look of performance.
Inside you can see they spent plenty of money making this look
fantastic. The exterior blue returns on the dash and custom center
console, and now it's joined by a nice tan/beige luxury setup. The
front seats are dual leather buckets borrowed from a Cadillac, and
they power adjust to your ideal position. Plus, there's more great
upgrades, like power windows, power steering, an AM/FM/XM stereo,
cup holders, armrest center console, and provisions for R134a air
conditioning. But this is more than just a coddler. You have a
Lecarra steering wheel, Lokar shifter, and full AutoMeter
Sport-Comp gauge package. They all signal you'll like the
performance of this grocery-getter.
The engine bay might just win you awards all on its own. They
invested heavily to make sure you'll proudly show off all the
shining components and the very tidy setup. And not only is this
impressive, but they also painted the intake to match the smooth
side walls. This is Chevy's mighty 327 cubic-inch V8, and so while
the '55 Nomad was the birth of the small block, it never got
anything this large from the factory. Plus, this has an Edelbrock
four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock intake, and shorty headers that
add power while contributing to rumble of the dual exhaust. Plus,
you have nice supporting component for this V8, like steel braided
hoses, upgraded pulleys, and an aluminum radiator. As you look at
the undercarriage photos, you're going to spot more upgrades like a
Camaro front end and a stout Ford 9-inch rear. Plus, they added
some modern driving conveniences like four-wheel disc brakes and a
four-speed automatic transmission w/overdrive.
Complete with maintenance records, this is an iconic classic that
combines terrific looks with real comfort and great driving
features. That makes it the total package, and it's ready for you
right now. Call today!!!
