Why not wait until the 1958 model comes out? They say there's gonna be a 348 in that model.

Joe Bob 09-17-2013 05:10 PM

Because I was born in 57......wankers were born in 58.....

BTW, it's located in PDX.

Nostril Cheese 09-17-2013 05:18 PM

If it's up here, rust will be a concern. Would you like me to go check it out? PM me with your contact info..

Oh yeah, here you go.

Joe Bob 09-17-2013 05:20 PM

I'll keep you in mind cheese. The owner states it's a newly finished build. Zero miles.

Been asking for his contact information. I'll PM you the number if you are bored and wanna take a look.

in other words, not yet debugged; still has glitches...

GWN7 09-17-2013 05:31 PM

Air ride?

Embraer 09-17-2013 05:34 PM

Joe Bob 09-17-2013 05:38 PM

Hey! I was born in '58. I may be a wanker, but you're older. So there. Love the car, BTW.

Cool wagon, lame wheels. Throw some Torque Thrusts on it...

targa911S 09-17-2013 07:26 PM

I think $18K is a good price for that .

Joe Bob 09-17-2013 07:39 PM

The guy is now getting squirrely.....car is in a garage 2 hours away.....no pics of the engine or under carriage.

onewhippedpuppy 09-17-2013 08:20 PM

That doesn't look "new build" to me. The interior looks like it has some wear and ragged edges, the paint on the drivers door looks off, the wheels and tape deck are straight out of 1985. Is $18k a good price for a Nomad?

Joe Bob 09-17-2013 08:23 PM

1957 Chevrolet 2dr delivery wagon

Not a Nomad....

onewhippedpuppy 09-17-2013 08:42 PM

Shows what I know. So is that a good price? I'm all for hot rods, but I can find much cooler stuff on Ebay for the same or less money. Maybe it if were better presented with details, more photos, etc.

It better have bags....that front end is too slammed to drive on the street if it doesn't.

Have any interest in a 58 or 59 (can't remember which year) Ranchero? 429 in it. Owner died, wife never liked the car so she is selling $10K Show car.

Retro Rod
 
$18k for a 2 dr. 57 Chevy wagon sounds like a deal to me! I would raise the front end a bit, but that's just me. I assume that is a 150 model, the base Chevy for that year. That's a model that is seldom seen these days! Nice find.

That thing is cooler than a penguins nuts. Wicked!
