Chev also offered a more stripped down version called the One-Fifty. <br />You can see the different models here:<br />http://56classicchevy.com/1956-chevrolet-station-wagons Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09085089656901860230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2693775542020483450.post-31150746478977385022016-07-26T21:51:52.074-04:002016-07-26T21:51:52.074-04:00FYI: It's a '56 Chevy Nomad (2 door) wago...FYI: It's a '56 Chevy Nomad (2 door) wagon, quite rare.
