BEST COAST '56!!
This is a California car that was owned by the mother of
a CHP officer - then garaged when he took away the keys. It
was an excellent driver before a total restoration done in 2005 by
current owner. This cool SoCal car has been shown
on occasion (crowd favorite at the Orange County
Fairgrounds Cruise-in year after year!) Restoration done by
Ed Duffy of Duffy's Old Cars, Costa Mesa, CA.
This '56 has been maintained meticulously since
restoration; not a drop of rain has fallen on this beautiful paint
job and chrome...only 6,300 miles on the new engine! Custom
Red & Tan Coco mats for beach days.
