Vehicle Description
Originally designed as the ultimate station wagon, this 1955
Chevrolet Nomad Restomod now serves as a beach cruiser
extraordinaire in Bright Aqua Metallic. White flames and purple
floral stripes run along the sides giving it coastal coolness
without trying too hard. A reverse tilt hood opens differently than
standard models, showing off craftsmanship at car shows. The
fiberglass spoiler and actual surfboard holder speak to its
California beach car identity. Billet Specialties wheels measure
17" up front and 18" in back, wrapped in 255/45ZR17 front and
295/40ZR18 rear NATO tires for proper grip and style.
Tan leather fills the interior with gray and ivory accents
throughout. Custom upholstery covers bucket seats both front and
rear with a full-length console separating passengers on both
sides. The BNM shifter sits within easy reach on the custom center
console while an aftermarket gauge cluster displays all vital
information clearly. A tilt column topped with a chrome wheel makes
driving more comfortable. The Power Acoustic head unit pushes sound
through Alpine speakers in the kick panels with modern USB and AUX
inputs for music options. Custom paneling and trim work throughout
add to the quality feel.
An LT1 350 V8 engine sits where the original motor once was, now
paired with a 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission for modern
drivability. Electronic fuel injection provides reliable starting
and consistent performance regardless of conditions. Four-corner
Ridetech Air Ride Shockwave suspension works with Heidts tubular
A-arms and dropped spindles for adjustable ride height. Power disc
brakes offer stopping capability while power steering makes
maneuvering simple. Headers feed into a Flowmaster dual exhaust
system for improved sound and performance, while a custom air
intake helps the motor breathe better.
