This one isn't truck related, but its a car I've never seen...and appears to be a corvette wagon? Any info on these?

Just to add a little more info, the '54 "Corvette Nomad" was a concept car that led to the developement of the '55 Bel-Air Nomad that continued on till '57. In '58 the name "Nomad" was continued on, but it was no longer a special body design like the '55 to '57 Nomad was. The name actually continued on till '61 in the Full Size Chevy Wagon.

The '54 Corvette Nomad was a one-of car and, as history tells it, was destroyed by GM in 1958 for unknown reasons.

Any '54 Corvette Nomad that you see today is a reproduction.

Found this one. I see on the extreme right someone saw the light and traded in his F**D in on a GMC! Like that 60-61 GMC behind the F**d too.

A Trade-In of course!

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.

Very cool pick of the dually

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.

The last two aren't of our era but are neat especially the gmc carry - all and a spartan series in production.

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.

Some nice additions. The Spartan production pic goes along with the other late 57-early 58 production pics I posted awhile back.

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.

I know this not of our era of trucks but the simplistic nature of a Chevrolet on a farm like such is a piece of art. Figured it was worth sharing.
