No Way Nomad?
I took a ’57 Chevy Nomad and shortened it, including the chassis, interior, and glass. Engine, headers, wheels, and tires from the parts box. You’ll notice I left the metal trim alone, and left it NOT meeting up on the side, like it might be as if the chop was done in a small garage. I had seen a 1:1 like this, and wanted to build one like it; I used a different paint color and wheels and added decals. Paint is Grabber Orange with Slixx decals. I did some small detailing, like the lights, grill, and bumper, but no BMF. A funny coincidence, I was about half way through with this when a picture of the Hulk, another 1:1 drag car, a similarly chopped ’57 Nomad, was posted on another site, but it isn’t like the car I saw.
