The first-generation Corvette would lay the groundworks for the
most well-known sportscar made in America, and this 1956 example is
part of that unique and amazing history. Under the hood of this
gorgeous 50's 'Vette is the potent 265C.I. V8. 1956 is the final
year for the 265C.I., the first V8 ever to be offered in a
Corvette, and only 3,467 were produced for the year. That
powerplant is fed fuel and air through its correct Carter 4-bbl
carburetor and is connected to a 3-speed manual transmission. What
makes this '56 Corvette really rare though is the fact that it was
originally optioned without a radio, making it 1 of a mere 750 like
it! Who would want a radio anyways when you have the charming
burble of a classic V8 Corvette as your background track? 1956 is
also the first year of only two for this unique design with its
protruding single headlamps, recessed taillights, and scoops on the
top of the front fenders. This 'Vette is finished in timeless Polo
White accented by a bold red vinyl waffle pattern interior that
shows excellently. Please feel welcome to visit our showroom/museum
