First is the '57. 602, tuned DOWN to ~800hp N/A and has a 400 shot of nitrous on top of that. Full tube frame with fiber glass body. Tires are 33X21.50-15LT Mickey Thompson® Sportsman (might be the Pro, not sure). The frame is approved by NHRA for pro street (iirc, ~6 second cars) and the lower end of the motor is build for the same. The picture give NO justice to how nice the paintjob on that car is, you can kind of see the metal flake, but its one of the nicest paint jobs i have ever seen.




This is his '56. 502 Blown, not sure about hp but has the same tires and a tube frame with fiber glass.


Here's the '55. 350 bored .60 over 383. 4 bolt main with crossed bolts or something, I cant remember what he called it. Street rod, full custom rear end by some guy who i cant remember, but its beefy as shit.



Last is his '56 Nomad. IIRC, it has an LS1 or LT1 and a 700r4. its on jackstands because he was changing the fuel pump.

those are beautiful cars

[ThatHideousStrength]

Those are the best cars. I serisouly want one of those, it doesn't need to have the Horse Power though. I just love Vintage stuff.

a 60 over 350 wont make a 383

350 .30 over with a 400 crank 3.75

[JustinL]

it was a 350 bored 60 over + whatever to make it a 383. its a custom block setup for a dry sump, and he has a custom oil pan made to convert it to a wet sump oil pump.

[Nothing.]

beautiful. And, I love the paint on the first car.

[offroadin]

Uhh, If I found myself in that garage with the keys to all those cars, I'm not sure which one i'd take.

Love the 55 and 56 body styles.

[JustinL]

what do you all think of the lights on the '56 nomad?

[81 Elcamino]

[Fonz]

The nomads lights make it look like a 53-55 Vette... well light wise.

[ward]

[Billkoz]

i love nomads. coolest station wagon EVER!!!!

[JustinL]

i found out what the deal with the nomad's headlight are. when talking to my RA who has a '57 bel air with an lt1, he says that the concept for the nomad had the corvette style lights like what are the nomad pictured. just figured someone would want to know.
