Lets see all the rides!!!!

I love the Nomads. I know where a 56 is sitting in a back yard, down in Pecos Tx. I have been trying to buy it for about 15 years, and they won't let it go.

Keep on em !! persistance usually pays off..

The nomads are rare! they only made a few thousand for each year versus 750,000 2-door cars.

Yea, I know. I stop by every time I am down there. It is sitting on blocks in a back yard.

Thanks for the compliment mightymouse. I used to watch that cartoon when I was much, much younger.

There are some really cool cars in Oklahoma.

There really is nothing like a big block. A completely different kind of animal. Of course the care and feeding of the animal is a bit more expensive than a small block.

I had two vettes years ago, both were 327 cars. They were a lot of fun.

This is a long time ago but I had a chance, twice mind you, to scoop up a big block vette. The first was a beautiful marina blue 66 with a 427. Guy wanted $5,000. I thought it was too much. Next up was a 1965 coupe with the 396 in it, absolutely stunning, the only year for the 396. He was asking $8,600.

As far as buying the Nomad on Blocks…..I think you’ll have to wait for whoever owns it to die. I call it the “I own a Cuda” Syndrome. The car may be on blocks and have more rust than metal, but by God I own one. Too bad. A lot of neat cars rusting away out there.

WOW, thanks for the Moparporn.
What a problem to have deciding what to drive.
They are all my favorite.

As for that troublesome Fury, I'll bring my carhauler right over.
Leave the title in the glovebox.

Here's my daily driver,

2006 Honda Mini-Van. I love this thing. I'll never be without one. 240hp/240 lbs-trq or there-bouts.

I never use my pick-up unless it won't fit in the van or it's real dirty.

Here's my 1973 Challenger. It has a built 440 in it. Really fast car but the technology is 40 years old.

Next up is a 1965 Satellite. I love this car. I bought it from a guy up in Wichita who got a little over his head on the car. It's got a built 440 and Kiesler 5-speed manual transmission.

Finally, my 1964 Fury, the car from hell. I've had this car for over 5 years and it has never run right.

The original 318 poly that was pulled and dumped.....By the by, the engine ran alright.

A 383 I built for it that never ran right, I've pulled it. I'll keep the rotating assembly for another project but the block is junk.

I'm building a 440 for it now.

This is for Uncle Meat, a 1963 Sport Fury,

It was for sale a couple years ago and I just copied the pictures off the web. 1963 was a good year for the Fury.

The 440 I got for my Fury was found on Craig's List and picked up in Kansas. Paid $375 for the block and a steel crank and a bunch of other miscellaneous stuff.

You need to make sure you don't over pay for a 440, they're not gold. Make sure you get a steel crank. There's a lot of 383s out there and there's a lot of firms making stroker kits that drop right in.

Thanks Sgt.
You'll see me in Sapulpa from time to time.
We'll swap vehicles!

WOW!!! That is beautiful! Man you are lucky. I would love to drive that....

Traded off my 78 CJ7 yesterday for this tiny sports car. My wife has to get in via the curb. That makes me happy.

Thanks DG. I just didn't have time to do what the CJ needed. I will miss it, but I won't miss the price of Jeep parts.
