Just finished the Nomad today. :) I had an easier time since I had gone through the sedan recently. Steering works this time. The tailgate does open, but I'm not sure about closing it again, so I'm just gonna leave it closed. The color is Tamiya coral blue. I took the interior tub apart and improved it a little. I made window cranks, door handles and arm rests. I think I'm getting better with this kit.  :)

Great looking Nomad. The color reminds me of the old Chevrolet Harbor Blue shade. Clean detailing throughout.

Excellent looking 55 Nomad. Is your trim bare metal foil or paint. Looks great either way. I built this Nomad kit back in the 70s when I was a lad. I built the pickup conversion.

Actually a mix of both.  :)  The rear windows, windshield and side trim are foil, the trim around the door glass and vent windows, door handles and the tailgate are chrome pen.
