Paint it blue/grey, put a big fin on the roof and Margaritaville down both sides.....

Fins up!!!

Yes Jeff, I've seen a number of them. Wagons are very popular now. It should be saved as original if possible. Forget the air-ride, 20" wheel deal. Which 348 is it?

here are some more pics......a friend of mine bought this car. everything but the radiator is original from what we can tell. the motor is seized up from sitting since '69. its all apart and at the machine shop now. the car is going to be left alone and has really cleaned up nice. all the black stuff on the engine is some sort of soot from the extra heater it has on it. when wiped off, the motor looks brand new. all the interior is in it and nice. all hes going to do is get it driveable and cruise it. i have never seen a '59 Nomad before. really a cool lookin car.........

Re: anyone ever see a........
 

Very nice find Jeff. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif The only non-original piece I see is the fuel filter arrangement (other than the hokey heater addition)

Can't wait to hear about the '62......

I was 5 years old when last in my dad's new blue 59 wagon. He had it till 63 when he bought a new Chevrolet 9 passenger. Great memories! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif
