Automotive Discussion - Autopten Forum -------------------------------------- Chevrolet Corvette C5 Nomad, Weirdest & Ugliest Corvette I've Ever Seen ================================================================================ Author: ChevyMAN[12-03-2013 01:38am] Title: Chevrolet Corvette C5 Nomad, Weirdest & Ugliest Corvette I've Ever Seen ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I was surfing Pinterest and just saw the picture of the ugliest and weirdest Corvette I have ever seen. I think it is worth sharing it and ask you if you know something about this model or if you knew it exists? This is the pin: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/366973069608172881/ This is the photo: [img]https://media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/2d/5e/e7/2d5ee7ba5f436802203fd22f5cab3cd3.jpg[/img] Searching a little bit, it seems it is a mix of the [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_Nomad]Chevrolet Nomad and the Corvette. The Chevrolet Nomad was built from 1955 to 1972. Looking a little deeper, there is a forum thread where someone with the same reaction I had when I saw this model of Chevrolet, posted some pictures of this weird Corvette. [image removed, sorry :(] [img]/pics/chevrolet-corvette-nomad-c5-red.jpg[/img] Seriously, the car is horrible. Some of the reaction in the forum thread are: "I like the concept, just not the execution". "That's fugly" : )=): "oh brother :icon_e2_worry: Needs to be lowered too". "Oh my, I just burped". "Can't say I really like the back end of the car." "and... Double Ick..."... jejeej read more funny reactions [url=http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c5-general/2082214-egad-c5-54-nomad-for-real-discuss-2.html]here. It also seems somebody was selling just one month ago a rare to find a piece of this C5 Nomad Corvette model at fincars.cc. It is a shame that the site doesn't say what was the price was sold. As for me, I would buy this car, no way.:icon_e2_insane: If somebody knows something else about the history of this Corvette C5 Nomad, it would be appreciated. You know what Chevrolet is... "Excellence for All"...
