    Just wanted to take a minute to introduce myself and say hi. I have been building cars for many years and just recently picked up a '57 chevy 210 handyman wagon.

    I havent been this excited about a car in a very long time. The wife and I have put many thousands of miles on my 32 ford roadster but now look forward to heat, radio, wipers, back seat, and lots of comfort for long hauls:).

    I wil probably have plenty of questions about this or that and maybe even have some knowlage to share.

    Here is the only pic I have so far but hope to share the changes I make with the rest of you.

    Thanks for the welcome. Still undecided on style. I know it will set low and have mostly stock looks inside and out.

    Hope to do the engine like a early gm hi perf would have come from the factory, hey maybe I do know how I want to do it haha.

    Wheels are always a hard choice. Maybe I'll see something here I like a lot.

    :Welcome:210lowmad. That's a nice lookin Nomad ya got there my friend. Maybe someone here likes those old Chevy two-doors and will help you out. Personally I'd take that beat up 32 Ford off your hands if ya need room to work on that wagon.:)
