The '58 Nomad arrived safely this afternoon; I gently dismantled it and repaired the damaged headlight eyebrow and straightened the crooked headlights. Before: After: Also worked on the front bumper alignment; had to do some trimming and filing to make it fit better. The rear bumper was sticking out too far due to the body's shrinkage, so I cut the holes a bit farther back. Notice how I'll also have to narrow it about 3/16" or so. Finally, from the side, you can see how the rear wheels will have to be moved forward at least 1/8" to get them centered. I have an idea for that; stay tuned and thanks for looking! Note to SfanGoch: Here's an AMT Impala chassis I checked for fit. It would definitely need trimming at the rear and on the wheel wells.
