Chevrolet Yeoman
Encyclopedia
The Chevrolet Yeoman was a station wagon
produced by Chevrolet
for model year 1958. The Yeoman was available in two models, a two-door and a four-door, both with six passenger seating capacity. Based on the Delray
passenger car series, the Yeoman represented the entry-level selections in the 1958 Chevrolet station wagon lineup, which also included the Brookwood
and the Nomad
. Either an inline six-cylinder or V8 engine could be installed. The Yeoman was dropped (along with the Delray) for 1959, effectively making it one-year wonder.
