My no name 55 Nomad

[ScottieB]

So here is my 55 Nomad. Found it on ebay and paid a fair price. It has a running small block and a 4speed, but they are not staying. The floor in it needs all new metal. The tailgate needs a ton of help and the roof is rusty too. But I have a Nomad!
The plan for the car is a good handling, a comfortable cruiser, and "enough" power.
Step one was to contact Nerd Rods and buy a U weld it frame kit from Russell. Done.
Skipping step two and went straight to step three, power. I bought an all aluminum LS1 long block. I also bought a LS6 intake, cam, and valve springs. I also bought Corvette LS exhaust manifolds. That should give me "enough" power. LOL
Lets get to a picture.
