The Nomad term, when applied to Chevys, typically meant a spacious station wagon that could not only carry the family, but enough camping gear for them to get by for days on. Fitting name, eh? Targeted at the adventurous, the Nomad was seen between 1955 and 1961, then again from 1968 to 1972. Today’s 1957 Chevrolet Nomad is thus a first-generation example, and we’re told that it’s been fully restored. Of course, the pictures speak for themselves, but to truly understand the depth and degree of restoration undertaken, you’ve got to see this Arizona-based car in the metal. Then, if you fall in love with it (which we’re pretty sure you will), we’re glad to help you acquire it.
Exterior and Interior
Turquoise paint exquisitely coats this 1957 Chevrolet Nomad, and complements it with a nice white roof. This gives the car a very outdoorsy vibe, while its ample chrome elements glint in the sunshine. Chrome was an indicator of luxury in the Fifties, with the front grille, bumpers and side garnishes coated in the stuff. The rim caps are also chrome, framed by beautiful whitewall tires, while the rear design is truly breathtaking, with its fins and raked-back tailgate. The interior of this 1957 Chevrolet Nomad is no less awe-inspiring. It’s a veritable time capsule from the Fifties, a time when Apple CarPlay hadn’t even been conceived, and digital was just an emerging buzzword. You’ve got that stunning turquoise theme continuing across the seats and dashboard, punctuated by some black details on the upholstery. Seating comprises two spacious benches, harking back to a time when three abreast seating was not uncommon. The car’s thin-rimmed steering wheel, slider controls for the heater, and push-button radio are all period curios that remind you of how spoilt we are in today’s cars. Behind the rear seat lies that spacious trunk, once again with a turquoise cargo mat to complete the color-matched theme.
Engine
This 1957 Chevrolet Nomad uses a 283ci V8 for motive power. The engine powers the rear wheels via a 2-speed Powerglide automatic transmission. It may not be a speed demon, but it’s one smooth ride, let us tell you.
