Ya. '56 was the tricky answer. This showcar has recently been found and restored.

In what Model Years, and to which Models of Chevrolet, was the iconic name "Nomad" officially attached to Production Vehicles?

I'll bite '55-60 or 61 Full size car wagon (I don't recall seeing a 61 actually)

I had a '71 Chevelle wagon branded Nomad, so maybe 68 or 69-72

One of the Vega wagons

..a goofy looking van at some point in the 80's or 90's

Na, That's cheating IMO. That's why I'm wrong so many times, won't use it.

Q: what was the last year for Chevrolet passenger car running boards ?

I'll say 1940...seems to me they were basically moldings, '41-'42-post-war

Trucks? You can still buy a Silverado with "running boards"...

Q: In what years was the Chevrolet passenger car only produced as a 4 cylinder car?

A: Light 6 production ended in 1917. New straight 6 was introduced in 1929.
In between 4 cyl only.

Time to resurrect an old favorite...

The Wixom Performance Build Center "hand-assembles" three different Chev-only LS-Series engines. What TWO components do ALL their engines uniquely include (as opposed to any other assembly line-manufactured LS engine facility)?

Uniquenesses:

1) ALL Wixom RPO engines (LS7, LS9, Vette GS LS3 M-6) are "dry-sump"-intended

2) ALL those engines are flywheel-equipped...Manual Transmissions only...none are intended for Automatics
