This custom 1955 Chevrolet Nomad underwent a complete rotisserie,
body-off, nut-and-bolt restoration, which was completed in 2018. It
is powered by a 430hp LS3 crate engine setup with an S&P
serpentine belt accessory drive system, exhaust headers, a chrome
alternator and a compressor. The engine is mated to a new crate
Tremec T56 6-speed manual transmission feeding power to a Currie
custom 3.50 gear True Trac rear axle. The engine compartment is
finished off with a Be Cool aluminum cross-flow radiator system
with dual SPAL fans and a custom firewall. The hood features billet
hinges, while the rear lift gate has gas struts. The custom exhaust
system is made from 2.5-inch stainless steel with an X-pipe and
dual Borla mufflers. Stopping power is provided by four-wheel
Wilwood 4-piston calipers and drilled and slotted vented rotors. A
Kugel hydraulic brake booster/clutch system is installed under the
dash, and the parking brake is activated by an E-Stopp electric
emergency brake. The electrical system is powered by American
Autowire wiring with an Odyssey battery and shut-off switch, both
mounted under the rear seat. The body was professionally restored
to the stock condition, including the spare tire well, and was
professionally painted in Corvette Velocity Yellow with a black
powder-coated chassis. The complete interior shell was primed,
painted and covered in extensive Dynamat insulation. The custom
white leather interior is by JNG Creations. Inside, this wagon
features yellow piping, a front bench seat, retractable seat belts
and a Vintage Air climate-control system. A downsized stock
steering wheel is mounted on an Ididit tilt steering column. The
dash includes a stock gauge cluster, plus Classic Instrument gauges
under the dash and a Hurst shifter for a retro '60s look. A modern
Retrosound AM/FM/Bluetooth radio with rear Alpine speakers
completes the interior. Its stance is provided by 2-inch drop
spindles and 17x8 chrome American Racing magnesium wheels with
Nitto tires. Both a California car cover and build photos are
included.
