A 1957 Sedan Delivery Wagon (preview) in the collection is one of 92 built and is the product of a frame-off restoration. Finished in Onyx Black with flawless chrome, the sedan is powered by a 270-horsepower V8 with a set of dual four-barrel carburetors. The recipient of a no-expense-spared restoration, a 1957 Nomad Wagon (preview) earned a perfect score of 1,000 at the Eklers Chevy Classic Club International Convention. Well-optioned from the factory, it comes with the upgraded Power Pack V8 and fabled Powerglide automatic transmission. Featuring all the original factory drivetrain components, a two-owner 1955 Bel Air convertible (preview) offers the deluxe chrome package and a rare rear-bumper deluxe Continental kit.
