    Not quite sure about the new dash color, it was supposed to be kinda an ivory color.

    I really like the looks of these. Haven't seen these in quite a few years. Wouldn't mind a set myself.

    I've got a set of the accessory wheel covers on a 48 Olds. I'm planning to put them onto one of my other cars with a set of spider caps & body color wheels. .

  4. Man... I would have a hard time doing anything to that one other than some trim and a detail.

    Congrats on your new driver. My first drivable car was a '49 business coupe at 15 years old and I still have a soft spot for them at 66. Your making yours into a fun cruiser and you'll be enjoying it for years.

    The trim makes a big difference on there. Glad you found some clips.

    I finally got tired waiting and used some "universal" clips, some modified Dennis Carpenter clips and a couple of home made clips. Talk about pain in the **** ! ! !

    I switched out the front fender trim for the blank spears. I still have to put on my hood bull nose and the blank grille bullet that I have.

    Most likely, Florida Auto Fastener, has them. I do not have a direct link, but they are on epay as a top rated seller...for moulding clips, light hardware etc. Good folks to deal with. Ron

    When I bought my Nomad 20 years ago, my then 3-yr-old son said, "I like this minivan!"
