Gateway Classic Cars of Orlando is proud to present this beautiful
Venetian Red on White 1956 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible. One of
only 3,467. The Corvette received its first major body redesign in
1956. With exception of the instrument panel which nearly
identical, the 1956 was visually completely different from the
preceding model. The new design featured roll up windows with power
assist optional. external door handles and locks, exposed
headlights with chrome surround bezels (expect very early
productions which were painted) and sculptured side cove which
permitted the Corvettes first two-tone paint combinations. The body
was repainted about 10 years ago and maintained very well
throughout the years. Walking around this car you will see it
really takes you back to 1956. Moving on to the power behind this
historical beast is the original 265 cubic inch 225 hp engine with
twin 4 barrel carbs. To enjoy the nice summer breeze down the
highway just shift your way through the 4-Speed manual transmission
that came out of 56 Vette and features 12 bolt rear end with 3:27
gears. This car will really get up and go. The red vinyl interior
is in excellent condition & has that original classic styling to
it. The red interior keeps the flow of the car going from the
outside to the inside. Sitting behind the wheel of this head turner
you will see a nice clean gauge cluster, but you will be focused on
the many cruising miles ahead. Some additional features include AM
Radio, Manual Convertible Top, Hub Caps, Vinyl Interior, Radial
Tires, Seatbelts, White Wall Tires. This beautiful classic would
look great in anyone's garage and you would be the one turning
heads at your next local car meet or show competition. This 1956
