Central Valley Corvettes of Fresno - April 2019

‘In the Garage’ w/Jeff Levin
Recreating the Corvette Sport Wagon that Never Was
Out of all the memorable concept cars shown at the GM Motorama, none have had as much
impact as the Corvette and its sport-wagon variant, the Corvette Nomad. The latter design,
an odd yet compelling pairing of sports car and station wagon, is a unicorn of sorts for Chevy
fans—elusive, alluring, mythological. It had a complete first- gen Corvette’s fiberglass front
end, a hunkered-down profile and aggressive, muscular styling. Well ahead of its time, sadly,
the Corvette Nomad was never put into production and the one and only original is now lost
to mists of time.
Despite its practical carrying capacity, the Nomad wagon had swept, muscular lines.
