1956 Ford Sunliner
Car History
We have a restored 1956 Ford Sunliner here at Adventure Classics
that is an iconic convertible with the factory 312 cubic inch V8,
blue & white interior, and the white power top!
This is one of the true iconic 1950's convertibles that stylists
designed with the full-length chrome trim line that descended to
the doors and then back to the rear providing a dividing line for
the paint scheme, in this case, blue and white.
Engine & Drivetrain
The motor that is powering this beauty is a rebuilt 312 cubic-inch
V8 that was shared with the Thunderbirds of that year. It has the
block, heads, and intake painted the correct red, Thunderbird valve
covers that do a great job of attracting attention, factory correct
grey painted air cleaner assembly, factory cast iron exhaust
headers, and other original looking restored components like the
ignition, fuel pump, and alternator, and all belts and hoses.
It is sitting in a very restored, clean, painted, and detailed
engine compartment looking jus as it did when it was new.
The V8 is mated to Ford's two-speed automatic transmission for good
comfort and the power 0n the highway makes this an effortless
cruiser.
Interior
The interior looks all brand new too with the two-tone blue & white
split front bench seat and matching rear seat, door panels and dash
that continue the blue and white two-tone for a great uniform total
appearance.
The seats are also very comfortable and perfect for cruising. It
has the great factory dash with all the stock appointments, gauges,
and controls, the factory push-button radio, blue factory steering
wheel, and blue carpet and floor mats.
Exterior
The as new paint job matches the interior also being a blue & white
and is in great condition with bright chrome and trim, rear blue
painted fender skirts, good glass, and sporting wide white sidewall
tires on steel wheels with the chrome factory hubcaps.
It goes without saying that the major feature on our Sunliner is of
course, that magnificent white convertible top. It t just sets off
this beautiful car and is noticed by everyone so much, its almost a
shame to put it down to enjoy the sun and wind in your hair when
you will be out cruising.
Conclusion
All in all this restored 1956 Ford Sunliner we have here at
Adventure Classics is incredible. We were thoroughly impressed with
how pretty it looks in person and how it is such a fantastic
vehicle for driving, showing, and owning.
