Vehicle Description
The design of this over-the-top, highly awarded 1956 custom Nomad
was conceived by renowned Brian Stupski of Problem Child Kustom
Studio and executed by the professionals at G3 Rods to the highest
of show-quality standards. With over $450,000 and thousands of
man-hours invested, this Nomad stands apart with its extensive list
of custom modifications and features like the custom-formed front
sheet metal and wheel openings, G3Rods-exclusive grille and grille
shell, modified front bumper, chopped and tucked rear bumper,
custom drip rails and shaved door handles. And details such as
hidden tailgate hinges, mini-tubs that meld perfectly into the rear
belly pan and a custom engine compartment. Even the side trim on
this Chevy is one-off, custom machined out of aluminum and then
chromed to show-quality standards, as has all the trim, bumpers and
molding. It also has JW Speaker headlights and LED Dakota Digital
taillights. The exterior is expertly finished in two-stage BASF
Glasurit Summit White and topped off with custom emblems. The
custom interior is designed by Eric Brockmeyer and features a
custom dash inset with Dakota Digital gauges, a Billet Specialties
chromed and leather-wrapped steering wheel attached to an Ididit
steering column, and Corbeau seats wrapped in Deep Blood Red
leather with custom emblems and stitching. The interior was
produced by JS Custom Interiors and features a one-of-a-kind center
console and door panels with hidden LEDs, also covered in Deep
Blood Red leather. The black leather floors accentuate the Kugel
Komponents pedal assembly with chromed custom pedals. Creature
comforts include a Vintage Air climate control system and a
complete KICKER sound system with a touchscreen Pioneer head unit
that includes navigation. Power comes from a Jack Gibbs
all-aluminum 409ci Chevy block bored to 515ci producing over 550hp
and 605 ft/lbs of torque, and is equipped with Edelbrock heads and
water pump, a COMP Cam custom-grind camshaft, Ross Racing pistons,
a custom Hogan Cross-Ram manifold fitted with Inglese 8-stack fuel
injection, MSD ignition, Sinister Products pulley system and a
Performance Rod and Custom aluminum radiator. Backing the
powerplant is a 4L80E automatic transmission from Gearstar and an
Eaton Detroit TrueTrac rear end with 3.70 gears. The exhaust
consists of custom ceramic-coated stainless-steel headers and a
hydroformed bent 3-inch stainless exhaust system with Flowmaster 40
Series polished mufflers. Underneath sits an Art Morrison chassis
featuring an independent front suspension, coilover four-bar rear
suspension, and all polished stainless-steel lines and fittings.
Stopping power comes from Wilwood disc brakes with 6-piston
calipers and 13-inch drilled and slotted rotors. The Nomad rides on
stunning 18x8-inch front and 20x12-inch rear Schott Modsport wheels
with knock-offs, wrapped in Pirelli P Zero tires. Featured by SATA
at SEMA 2017, it has an extensive awards history, most notably the
Grand National Roadster Show Stitch of Excellence Award, Hot August
Nights Cup Top 5 Award, Tri-Five Nationals Top 5, Goodguys Custom
Rod of the Year Finalist, Street Rodder Top 100 and numerous Best
of Show and Builders Choice awards. **SOLD ON BONDED TITLE**
