Suzanne: The data on the Nomad states it is a 50' business car. From the side view of the car it seems easy enough to size the photo with a modern copy machine inorder to get a set of sideview dimensions to work from. Alternately you could get one of the LaBelle ( www.labellemodels.com ) coaches from the period to 'kit bash' into the Nomad. If your husband wants to work from the drawings to scratchbuild the car I'd think you might want to give him a set of sized photocopies and perhaps a LaBelle kit as a start. Trucks and couplers should be easy enough to get from any of several suppliers...Kadee most likely. Sounds like an interesting project. Keep us all informed on how it goes. Randy
