Those guys don't seem to look up when building these cars. When they showed shots of Jr. driving it, the headliner looked all yellowed and stained. Maybe it was just the lighting, I don't know. It looked crappy. They also never showed the chassis done. They do show body and paint work being done with a rusty nasty frame. They are fun though!

What is funny is Dale drove into his shop with the bad ass 67, and then latter, he was happy with their work. The two do not compare.
I hate to say it, but I liked the color.
LOL! agreed. His 1st and 2nd gen are top notch builds. The Nomad was a joke. Im sure even Jr knows it didnt compare to the caliber of cars hes got in his stable but for the Dew air time and commercial of it all 75K is money well spent for advertising I guess. Would rather see a real shop build a car.
I noticed a lot of pitting on the chrome pieces of the interior. The "V" where the speaker and clock are mounted on the passenger side were a notable example. Noticed the ignition switch was in pretty poor condition as well. These are all easily available parts, I'd been embarrassed to post a $26,XXX profit and left off these relatively inexpensive parts.
I cringed a little as they were stripping the top. Won't those rotary sanders mess up the body lines in the top of the Nomad?
