Nice , I hate rusted bolts .

Thats's the way it's supposed to be done. Good job Big Don and you and your family have a great day.

Where you get the rubber seals around the windows?????

Maybe I missed it but why not take the rear tires off ? To do the work

After all that work, that Nomad should ride like a dream............

Happy Thanksgiving 🦃🇺🇸Big Don and All Your Friends and Family

Enjoy your updates Don…happy Thanksgiving to you and your family 🙏

Rachet tightening is the way to go. Impact rachet (or Hammering) is scary. Young mechanics impact is all they know. Speed = more money in the pocket, but over tightening, non-uniform alignment threads (stripped) and misalignment of bolts to the brackets can go unnoticed. But, a mechanic feels safe when another mechanic gets paid to re-do their work.

It's called wrenching for a reason. It's body building too. Have a Happy Thanksgiving with your family.

Hey Bud looks like you got a good workout for sure 👍 Yeah Don when I in 4x4 with lifted up, I would get a piece of black hose that was a little tight and put a little grease on the left over thread's and screw the hose on up tight and cut it off, saved the threads for next time, just a idea. Well Don Hope you and family a great Thanksgiving ✌️

Happy Thanksgiving Big Don . Love yer vids And Merry Christmas

Good little exercise for your arms,HA! there.That hood bird is mint. Hey maybe you just have to chip away the bondo,some sanding and reopen the holes to get the bird back on curious to see what you do. Funny thing Don I still have my rear shocks from the 1970S in my car they were like new in 2012 when I pulled the whole rear assembly out when I sandblasted and painted everything .They were Monroes when shocks were made good. I just repainted them after sandblasting Im cheap. We had a huge sandblaster at my job. I put my whole fenders in there. Boy I miss that privelege but I have a nice blast setup now anyhoo ...Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family ...

Nice work Don, even on a cold day like today you were lying on the floor in a tshirt! One bad buckeye!

Thanks for sharing I ran into that same issue of not enough length in the socket for nut Harbor Freight has impact long sockets I got a set and like Em on exhaust studs they did the job A Happy Thanks Giving To All

My ‘55 Nomad came with traction bars, so original lower shock brackets were long gone. These bars just used a nut/bolt combination for the lower shock mounting and if reuse them I might just weld a bolt to the hole like the way yours were repaired. Your ‘55 should ride like a Cadillac with new shocks!

I got tired just watching you do it! Job well done Don.

Happy Thanksgiving, Don

Thanks man! Have a Blessed Thanksgiving!

Old school rule of thumb, little bit of engine oil on the threads makes it easier to remove,down the road. When these cars were built, everything had a coat of oil on it. Oil doesn't interfere with torque specs like anti-sieze or grease. The bird is the word 😁 Happy Thanksgiving

Nice job Don u and your family have a great Thanksgiving c u next video 👍

Great update Don. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. 👍😎✌️

Leaf springs are 6 leaf those were from a nine passenger wagon. Looks like to me anyway.

Nice video Big Don! The bird is beautiful! It will look really nice on the convertible. That will give it a finishing touch! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!

I haven't followed u much but u sure got some bad azz cars happy turkey day I'll be watching more👍

I can’t be leave you don’t have an impact wrench .Save your hands friend and HAPPY THANKSGIVING.I LOVE YOUR CARS❤

Happy Thanksgiving to all God 🙌

Nice job should ride much better.Happy Thanksgiving

Hey man, cool update. Nice new shock plates. Have a great holiday brother 🙏

Keep the great work man have a nice thanks giving

Thanks for the update!

Love the way the doors close mint big Don

Door won't latch on a '55 Nomad --> parts car. What a clown. The wrong people stumbling across these cars....

Hey Big D, it’s great you took the 56 for a drive, it’s a turn key driver, the louvered hood would be nice to see what it looks like on the 55, but I can’t imagine it looking any better than the stock one, but you never know, good video, have a fantastic Thanksgiving and catch you soon 😀😀

Don are those Nomad eyebrows on the Convertible? Where is the 57 Nomad? Love your cars, man.

Just going to work on the 55 hardtop for the winter take care

Cool video

What a dilema. To many Tri Fives and which on to work on first. You always seem to have a plan that gets things done. I like your videos and and your a easy guy to listen to.

Thank you Don for the mention in your video! It also led to quite a few more subscribers and I appreciate that! When Dan‘s hot rod garage says you have an epic Barn find with a Nomad, you know it’s real! Thanks again, looking forward to your next video.
