1957 Chevrolet Nomad

This 1957 Chevrolet Nomad is for sale in our Louisville KY showroom. The two door Nomad took a completely different approach to a station wagon than many of the era. With its styling cues being basically that of a 2 door hardtop the Nomad would enjoy the same success as the tri fives that it was based off of. Much like the 2 door hardtop models the Nomad is one of the coolest platforms to resto mod. This 57 has been built to enjoy and drive on a daily basis while taking it to high level car shows on the weekend. After a long and well thought out 5 year build the transformation was complete. The body was taken off the original frame and taken down to bare metal before being placed on a powder coated custom frame. The copper gold paint is slick and looks great while keeping with that classic 57 look. Using C4 corvette suspension the ride is sporty with the Bilstein shocks handling anything you can throw at it. The rack and pinion steering is crisp and light feeling with the custom wheels adding to the look and feel. With 4 wheel disc brakes bringing everything to halt in a hurry. Under the hood is all business with aFuel Injected Ram Jet 502 crate motor filling up the engine bay perfectly. Outfitted with Sanderson headers the exhaust note lets everyone know that there is no small block under that hood. Keeping everything at the right temp is an all-aluminum Be Cool Radiator that looks as good as it works. The 4l80e transmission routes the power to a Dana 44 rear end which has a set of 3.45’s in it making this a well suited highway hauler. The interior is a mix of classic and new with the painted dash filled with a set of custom gauges look great while being super functional. The white and black bench seat is period correct with the matching door panels tying it all together. Of course, the power windows are always nice especially when it gets a little too hot and the AC needs to be kicked on. Options on this 1957 Chevrolet Nomad include AC, AM/FM, Power Steering, Power Brakes, Power Windows, Tilt Wheel, and Aluminum Wheels wrapped in Radial Tires.
