    New family member

    I scored another 1955 nomad this past weekend in Kansas.
    This thing is unbelievably solid & complete. I'm selling my other one if anyone is interested.
    Thanks
    Rocky

    Are the rear wheel wheel openings on the 55 nomad have the more tear drop look instead of the typical 55 wheel opening? Just never noticed

    They're not really "teardrop" shaped like the 56 and 57, they're like a regular 55 opening only significantly taller. The rear wheel openings is one of the things that I love about the 55 Nomad. It's the only car that has different shaped wheelwell openings than other models in the same year. Makes it easier to fit big tires on it.

    55 Nomads have there own rear wheel opening different than the Belair or regular wagon.

    Very nice find. Always great to see a Nomad project. A another one saved.
