1955 Chevrolet Nomad Restomod

This 1955 Chevrolet Nomad Restomod pairs classic Tri-Five style with big-block muscle and modern comfort. A complete frame-off restoration leaves no detail untouched, and the striking Synergy Green finish gives this sport wagon serious street presence. Under the hood, a potent 454 V8 sends power through a 200R4 overdrive automatic to a Ford 9-inch rear end with 3.55 Posi gears, so it pulls hard and still cruises easily at highway speed. Inside, custom leather, Dakota Digital gauges, a RetroSound stereo, and ice-cold RetroAir A/C make every mile comfortable. You get the rare Nomad body style with the performance and drivability to enjoy it anywhere.
