Vehicle Details
1956 Chevrolet Nomad – One-of-a-Kind, Show-Quality Build
This 1956 Chevrolet Nomad has undergone an extensive 8-year, no-expense-spared, nut-and-bolt restoration, built to an extremely high show standard. Every square inch of the car has been meticulously smoothed, finished, and detailed. The paint and bodywork are true #10 show quality, with the car painted inside, outside, and underneath—the underside is as nice as the top. It does have 2-3 small chips I will try and get touched up.
