    NOMAD - So fresh and so clean.

    EDIT:
    So here is the progress so far:










    OLD POST:
    Finally!
    Got the car running nicely, and finally took some time and cleaned it up.
    Completely stock right now, with no missing parts.
    Now I'm saving for some suspension work. I've decided to keep it for the time being instead of selling it. It's now a longer term project but after cleaning it up I was pretty encouraged.

            Yeah, after looking at mine and looking at other pics I have no idea why that thing is so high!

            I had a bunch of parts ready to go on it but sold them after it broke down. Now I'm kicking myself!

                Nice and clean.

                That antenna position looks familiar. Mine's stuck like that too.

                  Yeah, how can I just get the antenna to retract fully so I can just leave it down?

                  After shining it I'm considering keeping it factory looking. But not sure "holding value" is all it's cracked up to be.

                  I like mods though and was thinking of these for exterior:
                  Tint windows and front visor, black kidneys, eyebrow, tinted highs and fogs, black front lip(Vr6?), black sideskirts (taurus?), paint rear spoiler black (red is fading badly now). sort of a high contrast red/black look.

                  Also springs and struts as the first "real" upgrade.

                          Thanks for the props all.

                          If they ever come out with the chevy nomad they made the concept for then i'll definitely be buying a rear badge. :)

                              Very clean car, if I were to mod a car in that condition, I would only do some subtle oem mods.
