I bought this ‘55 Nomad back in 2012 in Greeley, CO, and brought it home to Minot ND and started to dismantle it. I got the kids and grand kids involved with the dismantling process AND the assembly process, from our car club. They loved it! It has a GM 350 crate engine backed up with a 700r4 automatic transmission. I finished the ’55 Nomad in August 2014 and now I drive it during the summer months, although it sits in storage during the winter months. I even drove it to the National Nomad Convention in Billings MT this past July and it took a 2nd place in its class. It has been a great car with lots of nice accessories. My Nomad most recently graced the cover of the July/August “Old Cars Price Guide”, 2016 edition in front of this gas station.

Great Car
The mid 50’s Nomads are one of my favorites.
Beautiful car
What would you sell it for ?
This was a great car. Have too many, so I sold it in ’17 at the Motor Magic Classic Car auction in Minot, ND. I took this picture over in Grand Forks, ND along the dyke at the river. I was told about this gas station setting after a car show in that city. I know every aspect of this car as I did the frame-off restoration. I love talking about “THE BUILD”. George—Minot, ND
Nice car. I had one in my youth. Now I have a 55 2 door sedan that I am still restoring.
Very nice Nomad!
Nice love to have one
Nice work George.
