    New Guy from OK says Hi!

    Another member of this board told me about this place, said I should check it out so here I am.

    I just bought my first Tri Five a couple months ago, so I am new to them but have been restoring cars and trucks for years.

    I have a 56 Nomad that is amazingly original, or was I should say. I just ditched the Treadle Vac power brake system and installed Wilwood disk brakes, drop spindles, wheels. Look forward to learning more here.

    Hi Zoomin(Steve), welcome. Nice lookin 56 Nomad. Looks good with those wheels!

    I have a 55 2dr sedan. I'm fairly new to the forum but enjoying it so far. People with helpful and inovative ideas!
    My car was redone over 30 years ago and in the process of making changes again! Enjoy!

    Welcome to the site Zoomin! I've always felt a 56 Nomad looks best two-toned but if it's going to be one color, it's black! Nice looking car.
