Vehicle Description
Welcome to Street Dreams as we celebrate our 25th year in the
classic and muscle car business. Nomad was a name used by Chevrolet
from the 1950's to the 1970's, almost exclusively on wagons, but as
any bowtie lover can tell you, the real Nomads were produced only
from 1955 to 1957. Yes, these Tri-Five Nomads are widely recognized
as the most stylish wagons built in America and are about as cool
as the other side of the pillow. This stunning Candy Brandy and
Silver 1956 Chevy Nomad restomod retains that classic design while
sporting a shipload of top-shelf, professionally installed
jewelry...er, I mean hardware. Roll the trick reverse tilt hood
forward and you'll be greeted by a thunderous Chevy ZZ 572/620 hp
V8 sporting a Merlin III block with 4-bolt mains, Merlin heads, a
forged crank, forged and shot peened rods, forged aluminum pistons,
a hydraulic roller cam, a tunnel ram intake manifold with Hilborn
port fuel injection, and skillfully hand-sectioned headers.
Additional features include power rack and pinion steering, 4-wheel
vented disc brakes with drilled and slotted rotors, power windows,
Vintage Air A/C, 4L80E automatic transmission with Hurst shifter,
GM Compushift, and transmission cooler, a beautiful Art Morrison
chassis with Ridetech coilovers and a Jim Meyers 4-link rear
suspension with Currie/Ford 9 center section, a massive Be Cool
aluminum radiator with twin SPAL fans and shroud, a beautiful
stainless steel exhaust system with cutouts, custom interior by Ron
Mangus, Classic Instruments Big Ol' Gauge, an Alpine sound system
with JL Audio speakers and Apple CarPlay, and sweet Budnik alloy
wheels wrapped with aggressive Pirelli P Zero tires (245/35ZR19 F,
305/30ZR20). My favorite detail is the choice of 2 left tail
lights; the fuel filler is still behind the left and the kill
switch and charging port behind the right! Just cool. Please take
the time to study the images; from top to bottom, front to back,
this over-the-top build is positively gorgeous. Ready to show or
go, this unique Nomad makes no excuses. Preferred shares of oil and
tire companies not included. One more magnificent ride from the
team that can make your dream a reality. Street Dreams
(830-997-1950) is a full service dealership that can assist with
worldwide delivery, insurance, and financing options.
