"265 Nomad OVERDRIVE"

utemountain01

All the subassemblies go together well. The steerable front end is easy when the kingpin is cemented to the wheel assembly before attaching to the chassis. I had to adjust the dashboard to keep the steering wheel up off the seat. My only beef was the chassis to body. The firewall had to be notched over the distributor & engine block. I fabricated a chrome SUICIDE KNOB @ the 10 o'clock for SMOOTH SOLE BOOTS BIG WHEEL STEERING POWER

"Oh boy!!"

belair_sixduce (Idaho)

Super excited for this kit! Canâ€™t wait to find out what goodieâ€™s come with it!!

"Nice Memory Lane kit"

mcintirekenneth

Yeah its old technology (1965) it still has lots to offer , such as true multiple building options & lots & lots of goodies ! If you haven't done this yet , treat yourself to a true classic... As far as I can see the for cons is the molded in exhaust system, but then again that's always been a con & since I've built this at 3 times over the years I knew it was there, & the Pro's , well the kit itself since everything is in the box to do customizing....

"Rare type of model"

Paul Reffner (Paul.Reffner@outlook.com)

This is one of a very few station wagons produced today by the kit companies. Overall, it was a fun build; however, the front suspension is a bit tricky due to the number of small parts that are hard to hold in the correct position for glueing. I built mine factory stock. If you build the gasser version, the front suspension will be even more finicky since its built with a lot of chrome parts that did not look very sturdy. The rear hatch opens and closes. I kept mine in the open position to show off the interior. Also, the model comes with two options for the windows - clear and red. I did a bit of trimming on the red and used it for the sides and back while keeping the windshield clear.
