 You are looking at my 1956 Chevrolet Nomad that I started on a few years ago. Due to an accident and a loss of income I am forced to sell my car that I dearly love but wasn't able to finish. This is an all original built car, the way they built them back then. I have about a zillion dollars invested in my car, you guys that build them know what I mean. This will give someone a chance to get a good car at a good price. The car is about 90% complete in the project stage, really all it needs to be complete is the interior kit and installation, The glass put in it, which I have it all except the rear liftgate glass and the exterior stainless, which I have it all. I want to make a quick comment here on the exterior stainless. I had it all professionally restored, that alone was a $2500.00 project, and it looks beautiful. I have it all rapped up packed in a box so it won't get scratched. I have some of the chrome re-plated and some still needs done. I have the headliner bows done and some other pieces as well. As you can see the rear bumpers are on the car and I have the front bumpers ready to put on, they are done as well. Starting from the ground up, everything on the drive-train is new, brake lines, fuel lines, all the wheel seals, breaks, break drums, tie rods, coil springs gas tank, fuel pump, ect. The engine is the original 265 V-8 with the Powerglide transmission. I took the engine and had it COMPLETELY rebuilt, had the block bored. All new rings, bearings, rods, cam, the works and the heads were rebuilt as well. Basically everything under the hood is new. The engine has new a 4-Bar. carb with the original power steering. The transmission is the original 2 speed Powerglide. When I was in the engine/transmission stage of the project, I wanted to be sure the transmission was a good one so I put it in without doing anything to it. After this stage was complete I took it for a test drive and everything worked as it should,(shifted smooth). As many of you know these Powerglides has a history of leaking and mine is no different, so it needs taken out and new seals needs installed in it, other than that the transmission is fine.I have the front and back seats for the car, the back seat is in GREAT shape, the front seat is rebuild-able. The car has had all new wiring harnesses put in and everything works as it should right down to the clock.Basically everything was new when the car was put together. I can't even begin to list everything because I would surely leave something out. You may have noticed in the photos, the hood was not all the way down, the reason for this is the hood hinges I had on it had something wrong with them, they just didn't work properly so I bought new ones and put them on with new springs as well so it needs some adjustments made that was never done. In the rear cargo area is a border of stainless that goes around the floor area, I have some of these pieces but not all of them. They have not been restored. Once I had all of them I was going to have them restored as well but never got around to that part yet. The metal trim that goes around the top of the cargo area in the back has all been painted and ready to install once the interior has been installed. During the assembly of the car there are a couple places the paint chipped when tightening the of that particular piece, these are small places but they are there and there is a very, very small dent, about the size of a BB in the drivers door, too small to show up in a photo and I'm sure it can be fixed fairly easily if someone knew what they were doing. I am trying to mention every little detail so there will be no surprises if someone were to look at the car. I am sure I've left something out but I've described my car the best I could. If there are any questions about it, and I'm sure there will be, don't hesitate to ask. This will make someone a nice car once it's completed and it won't take too much to do that. Any shipping arrangements will be the responsibility of the buyer although I can assist. A $500.00 deposit is required within 24 hours of auction closing. I reserve the right to end this auction early due to the car is for sale locally. Thank you for looking!
