Vehicle Description
This custom Nomad wagon is powered by a 383ci stroker V8 engine
backed by a 700R4 automatic transmission with a Hughes 220 stall
converter. It is equipped with a custom-built narrowed 9-inch Ford
rear end with 3.73 gears. Braking was upgraded with a CPP chrome
master cylinder with 13-inch disc brakes up front and drum brakes
in the rear. Suspension is RideTech tubular control arms with
coilovers in front and rear with a 4-link rear end. It rides on
staggered 20-inch front and 22-inch rear Coys five-spoke wheels
with painted centers wrapped in Hankook tires. The 383ci stroker
engine is equipped with Pro Action heads, Edelbrock 4-barrel
carburetor, March pulley system and an MSD ignition. The exhaust
flows through Patriot ceramic-coated long-tube headers leading into
a custom 2.5-inch stainless exhaust with Flowmaster 40 Series
mufflers. The body underwent a full frame-off restoration with a
smoothed and powder-coated chassis and recontoured wheel openings.
The body was restored back to stock, and all chrome and stainless
has been replated and polished, including one-piece bumpers. The
custom PPG Viper Red paint is by Joe Martin of Martin Brothers
Customs and Shorty Ponce of Elite Autoworks. Joe was given creative
license to design and airbrush one-of-a-kind custom flames that
include his trademark ghost skulls with a unique expression in each
flame lick. The design theme was continued on the custom-fabricated
center console, firewall and inside gas lid, and is signed on the
tailgate by Joe. This is truly a one-of-a-kind work of art on
wheels. The interior includes billet sweep dash panels, Classic
Instruments gauges with Painless wiring harness, Ididit automatic
tilt column, Budnik steering wheel, Vintage Air and a top-grain
full custom leather interior, including seats, door panels and
headliner. The carpeting is a match of Mercedes-Benz gray and black
tweed covering with wall-to-wall Dynamat thermal acoustic mat.
Power windows and locks complete the luxury interior design. This
one-of-a-kind build won the Goodguys PPG Dream Car and Super Chevy
Editor's Choice Award, and was featured in Goodguys Gazette and
Super Chevy magazine. **SOLD ON BONDED TITLE** **TITLE IN TRANSIT**
