Classic Ford Fans and lovers of mid-1950s Detroit Iron will not
want to miss this one ? a 1956 Ford Customline Tudor Restomod that
we are selling for a local client. Dressed in a vibrant yellow
exterior with flames on the hood and an air intake scoop, the car?s
paint and chrome trim are in excellent order but with minor
imperfections, paint crack at right side hood and a small crack at
left front fender near the grill. The bodywork is straight and the
front fenders are fiberglass. The engine bay is extremely tidy, the
trunk is in similar order, complete with space-saver spare tire and
the trunk-mounted battery appears new. This Ford rolls on Douglas
Xtra-Track radials, size 205/55R16 at every corner. Each tire is
mounted to Cragar SS Mag Wheels. The wheels and tires are all in
very good order and the tires offer deep tread. In that engine bay
is a 400-horsepower Cleveland 351 CID V-8 engine from a 1971 Ford,
with Australian two-valve iron heads with oversized valves, roller
rockers, a Comp Magnum roller cam, Edelbrock air gap intake, a
Holley 650 cfm double-pumper carburetor, Mallory ignition,
long-tube headers, three-inch dual exhausts with Flowmasters,
aluminum crossflow and more. While equipped with A/C, it is
inoperable with no belt on the compressor. Bolted to that motor is
a custom-built automatic overdrive with a 2,500 RPM stall converter
and an aluminum driveshaft and a 1996 Explorer 8.8-inch narrowed
rear end with 3.55:1 gearing and 31-spline axles. Driver
convenience features include power rack-and-pinion steering,
Hydroboost power front and rear disc brakes, power front seats and
a tilt steering column. The car?s chassis features dropped spindles
and heavy-duty front sway bar. Inside is a black leather interior
from a 1998 Lincoln Mark VII. The front buckets and rear bench seat
with center fold-down armrest are in great shape. The matching
carpet and headliner echo the seats? condition. A three-spoke
sports steering wheel that is a replica of those found on late
1970s Ford vehicles looks great, while the black metal instrument
panel is in excellent order while the matching inner doors with
patterned panels are in very good condition. The car has a full set
of Auto Meter gauges, including a tachometer, transmission fluid
gauge and even a clock. A B&M Quicksilver Shifter completes the
interior. The 1956 Customlines utilized the 1955 bodies with only
minor changes. A Customline Victoria two-door hardtop was added to
the range. Nineteen fifty-six Customline production totaled 368,653
units. Documents include a copy of the owner?s manual plus assorted
papers. This is a beautiful cruiser, wrapped in eye-catching paint
and chrome with a modern interior. If you?re looking for a classic
Blue Oval product, this could be that car. It also makes a viable
alternative to the well-known Chevrolet Tri-Five collectible cars.
