Old Chevies never die! Those cars were the most reliable cars on the planet. I bet they only disapeared from the roads because they were not the latest fashion anymore. And because rust took an evil toll. In the sunbelt the cars did not disolve like in the rust belt. But seals, rubber an interiors disolved due to sun and heat. A lovely collection of cars you showed us here, thank you!
OMG Dan, I'm in heaven. Never seen that many '59 wagons in one place. The first one is an incredible "barn find", 348 to boot. I always thought those wagons were as rare as hens teeth, however this collection is over the top. Caught a glimpse of a '62 rag and what looks to be a restored '61. Thank you for bringing us along and thank your friend for sharing that beautiful collection of bow ties. Peace.
The car is great. The collection in the garage is fantastic. It's even more impressive that you guys have the skills, knowledge and dedication to work on these beauties and restore them. I respect you guys, and envy your talent. Congratulations for starting her up, and for what you do.
59"s were the best. My family had a Chevy dealership for 40 years until 1985. The favorite car was a 59 wagon that was traded in and used for everything until the business was sold. Her name was Beulah, lol
Love watching your vids- I started recording and doing a RU-vid channel myself a few years ago after watching your vids. It’s just nice to document and see all the kinds. Thanks for all the videos!
Sweet old wagons and 59 2dr hdtp, I had a 1960 2drht black with a white top back in 1974-283 2sp auto with 70K miles on the clock. I love them old Chevy's
Contrary to popular opinion, you can be a Ford guy (like me) and still love a slew of GM cars. Top of the list for me has always been the '59 Cat Eyes. With that swooping deck lid and the coolest pair of tali lights ever, it doesn't get any sexier. Unless it's a two tone! I wonder if Ryan from Iowa Classic Cars has made it down to this amazing garage. Hey Dan, whatever happened to that sweet C2 blue Vette you brought back from the dead? Really enjoyed that series.
I was always under the impression the Nomad was the two-door wagontype Chevrolet. I guess there's nothing finite in the world we all find out at some point in life right?
My father had a black on black 59 wagon with a 348 and 3x2 carbs 3 so on the tree . He would deliver olive oil during the week and race it on the weekends. He said the trans was the weak point
Right off / Straight up: That's not a Nomad. It's a frick'n Impala wagon. No Nomad ever had four doors. Chevy bolting a badge on it does not make it a Nomad. We had a '59 Impala when I was a kid. This is just the wagon version.
