Damn that is bitchin. Cole that is some really nice work and one of the cleanest engine compartments I have ever seen..
Cole, do the hinges mount of the two bolts on the firewall?
Cole, i don't know you, and have never met you, but someday i'd like to!!
I like your style and the quality of your work!
It's outstanding to say the least.
There's something about a car(dosn't even matter what kind for the most part) that when it come's together it's so subtle, so clean, yet hit's you right between the eye's when seen that it's just a work of art, more than just a car.
nice job!
Rat....
Cole,
The Rumors about "the last american sledge swinger" are now official.. I was informed by the "precher" of the custom rodder diatribe, and the LEADER of the SINNERS, that only one hero remains undomesticated. My house is still dirty. Fatherfury brightened my day with the pictures of webb choppers, and old school jessie james mullet photos, and jimmy shine rapper, lowrider pictures... he sent me the the eye opening weekend summary of the so-cal "Scott Bourne" to lose(tm) , after the young SCOTT spent time with his HEROES..... I guess the HEAVY METAL Golden boy SURFER. really does have a dog that is addicted to crack cocaine......
The wagon looks nice as it did when we covered it in PLASTIC and swallowed MARCOS' semen staring at the pearl...
I need to come over and go swimming in your attic for some more hot rod parts... I was going to call INDIANA today to check up on things...
HARVESTER left the ICE CREAM out of the FREEZER. and JOBES chopper almost went into a brick wall...
I like HARVESTER when his MARILYN MANSON chick, isn't around...
he says he is only going to be in CONTACT with his FRIENDS by EMAIL...
I will come set that FAG straight.........
JASONOFABITCH JESSIE(tm)
that was RULING...
go do what DOMESTICATED folks do..
FATHERFURY got SANTA CRUZ SKATEBOARDS to pitch the full BAIL, for DUANE, and JAY ADAMS.....
He really is OUR SAVIOR

Nice touch with the upper radiator hose being right in the center.Doesn't take anything away from the engine compartment.Flows together nicely.What are the colors,other than just blue and white?

Some people just simply stand above the ones around them.

Cole, one more question What are the access panels on the front of the core support for (access to the condensor?)

Stance is everything (almost..) and that first pic is so spot on! Killer work, Cole.

VERY NICE! I have had my share of 55s and 56s so I know how much crap there is on the firewall. Where did you put it all; the master cylinder, the wiper motor, heater, etc? The new core support hides the A/C plumbing nicely. How many hours do you have in the core support and fan shroud, they both look like they have some serious manhours invested! Thanks for sharin' the pics...

To me, the tu-tone under the hood is the best part.
Nice job man.

GR-RRR

Car is awesome, really like the stance. The color choices also are great.
Love how subtle it is... I thought it was almost stock, until I saw the rear and engine compartment.. very, very slick.

Cole you suck. Who do I have to blow to get that car in front of my camera? buckin fitchin.
I like it...
It's the little things, like the shaved center spear on the tailgate without a handle in it that make it for me.
Thanks for words on Nomad, Glad you dig it.
the front radiator support dosent have any removable panels, what you see is some shapes pressed into it to break up and give it some gayness.
its four bared in rear and up front I steped the bottom A arm 2' and is airbagged too, interior will be pearl wite and a semi gloss black(with white stitching) air cond is un seen and all gauges are stock same with steering wheel,also just took out tilt coloum and put stock one back in except i moved shift gate inside firewall . post some more pics when taken.
WOW, very classy, love the shroud, and core support.
no sonic tray on the window?
no blow up james dean in the back seat?
no plate that says "lost in the 50's"?
no mullet wheels?
nice vision.

I absolutely LOVE 56' Nomads! Had a pale yellow one in the early 90's with a dual quad 301 smallblock backed by a Muncie 4 speed. Had a black 64 Impala SS interior, Rallys, 3:55 posi rear-end, etc: Ran STRONG! shoulda' never sold it! I like what you're doin'! Good Luck on this build!
....give me ONE good reason! .....Just ONE!
