1957 Chevrolet Nomad

1957 Chevrolet Nomad - Turquoise and White In 1954 at the GM Motorama, GM designers and engineers unveiled a uniquely designed two-door wagon to the public to gauge consumer reaction to its bold, forward-looking concept. Consumers absolutely loved the car, which earned its place as one of legendary GM design chief Harley Earl's revered "dream cars." Rather than developing an entirely new model line to support the production wagon, Chevrolet wisely leveraged the existing popularity of the Bel Air nameplate and introduced the Nomad as the Bel Air Nomad - a sport wagon for buyers seeking more space without sacrificing the prestige and styling of Chevrolet's flagship trim.
