1956 Nomad gasser build

Nice work Mitch! I miss my old Nomad. What a fun and unique car. I restored this one about ten years ago. No gray hair!

Cheers

Love the Nomad build. Wouldn't have expected to see this on a website like this.
We've had our 56 Nomad since 1977. Back then I did some minor floor repairs, then daily drove it up through the 80's, until about 89 when one of the rear frame spring perches broke. Parked it since. This past year been working on it off and on, then this thread popped up. What are the chances?

I fixed the frame. Still runs and drives with the same 327/4-speed and 4.56's. It needs rockers on both sides along with a couple frame braces but nothing horrible. Rest of the car is very solid. It was my hotrod since the 70's and will remain that way. Plan to leave it in primer, put all the trim back on and just enjoy daily driving it again.

Excellent work, can't wait to see it finished

Yeah, not much happening on here for restorations/builds since Nor-Cam finished his car. A few people seem to have, or be, interested in the tri fives, so I figured I'd share what I was doing at work.
