I too like Wagons. I was wondering what that speed minder was, have never seen one and I am a Chevy guy. You have the Top of the wagon line with the 348. Thank you for sharing.
I don't understand how any vintage Chevy enthusiast can say there were never any 4-door Nomads, when it went over to that for 4 model years starting with the '58. The tri-5's were very expensive and not practical as wagons being luxurious 2-doors. They were 'halo' cars that brought attention to the wagon line, but never sold (themselves) in large enough numbers to be profitable. When the new '58 bodies were introduced, the Nomad, now a 4-door, was much more in line with the other wagons, though it was still the top line wagon like the '59 featured here.
Good find man. Did your neighbors throw a fit because you have an old car in your driveway? Most neighborhoods complain it makes there property is worth less.
