I also dabble in street cars everyonce in a while. Did this one last year for a show, the theme was 57' Chevys and I wanted something a bit different.

That's one of the most attractive color schemes I've seen on a Nomad, and all that metal foil must have been...fun. All in all, this is a very nice build and is quite eye-catching.

Tom, she's beautiful. It's nice to see you went with something other than the usual black or red body color. That roof looks really realistic as well. Got any engine shots?

No engine shots, I could not get the hood to set down right so I glued it where I wanted it. There is a engine in the car just can't take a picture.
