    I'll bet that's rare. I'd just get it mechanically safe, clean it up, and drive it.
    Then next week replace and repair the wood.
    Then the next week paint it red with black fenders.
    Then the next week after that add power disc brakes, etc.
    Then the next next week after the next week drop in a small block Chevy engine and 5-speed
    Then.............................. :biglaugh::1st:

    I still like carburators. Won't need AC in Illinois. Maybe a good set of snow tires and chains!:rofl2:

    I think the 55 Nomad would look good with snow chains plowing through 3 feet of snow and salt..... you would be the only 55 Nomad that........................

    No Nomad... NO Cat. No Grandpa ! No s*#@t

    I don't own a 55 Nomad !:49:
    But I think my 55 Handyman wagon did plow thru lots of salt and snow. That's why I replaced the rear wheel wells with Nomad replacements.:)
