Price: US $60,900.00 SOLD OUT
The 50âs beauty of black paint and gleaming chrome. âThe Hot One is Even Hotterâ was the motto that Chevrolet boasted for its 150, 210 and Bel Air series in 1956. With a new Super Turbo Fire V8, the new 1956 promised a friskier, sweeter ride with safer passing. Playing off the success of the previous year redesign, the new 1956 Chevy was met with an appetite of frenzy from the buying public. Minor changes were made to the 1956, including new engine options, a slightly different dash, a newly hidden gas filler cap in the rear fin, and colors, trim and fabrics. The â56 Chevy was a hit as sales continued to climb. CONDITIONS: Body and paint : are in very good to excellent condition. The paint is mostly original from the doors back.
