    1955 Chevrolet Bel Air

    1955 Chevrolet Bel AirThe concept of a 2-door station wagon was first showcased by General Motors at the 1954 Motorama, with the Corvette Nomad show car. Crowds loved the unusual 2-door wagon and as a result, Harley Earl assigned Carl Renner to redesign the Bel Air wagon for 1955. The result was the fantastic Chevrolet Nomad, which featured distinctive 'B' pillars supporting a ribbed hardtop. The Nomad was Chevy's most expensive car in 1955 at $2571.
