    55 Nomad. One of my all time favorites since Ford and Chrysler never had the balls to make something this cool.

    I would restore the chassis and underneath, and do the mechanicals and drive it as is for a couple of years juct because it looks so solid! Nice car!!

    Gonmad, I love your '58. I walked around it in some mall parking lot in Springfield one day. (look but don't touch) Thats a great looking car with some awesome patina.

    D/A sander, angle sander, sandpaper in hand and some Krylon. Simplicity at it's finest.

    I have a question for you longroof guys. I found a '55 wagon with no motor or trans and also missing a rear bumper for $4K. The body is straight, no rot, floor solid, all there...needs new interior. I'm thinking about taking a closer look at it...is this a good price?

    Thanks! I'm sure Chic was there with the kids spending money! LOL! Actually, she drives it more than I do, heck she'll drive it before the escalade if its decent weather! That is with exception of long trips like the 3 power tours and various car events/shows across the country of course, then I'm driving!
