1960 Nomad

Recommended Posts

Haven't posted here for a while. Fully recovered from the heart attack/bypass surgery, so back to busy with full-scale projects. Not much time for models at the moment.

However....I just scored this old 1960 Chevy Nomad promo model at an antique store. It is missing the grill and front bumper but it looks like those parts from the Revell 60 Impala will work with a little bit of fitting.

The promo is in excellant condition otherwise. I am not sure of it's value so I am debating a few directions to go with it.

1. Clean up and install the Impala grill/bumper and leave it at that.

2. Clean up then foil the trim, add white stripe on the side, swap out the wheels with the stock Impala kit wheels and wide ww.

3. Use more parts from the Impala kit and do a full "restomod" version.

There are no markings on the chassis to indicate who made this promo, but I suspect AMT.
