Featuring an excellent two-tone silver and black paint finish, this Los Angeles-built 1956 Chevrolet 210 is a stunning street machine with uncommon detailing that retains its iconic and unmodified factory bodywork. Body panels are super straight, and the hood, doors, and trunk lid all feature superior fitment and shut lines. Featuring custom upholstery comprising Oyster leather with cloth accents, the classic bench-seat interior is as impressive as the exterior. Other interior highlights include the embossed Oyster door panels, banjo-style steering wheel, tilt column, digital gauges, billet pedals, A/C (r134a) and a classic-appearing modern AM/FM radio. The factory-style, die-cut “bowtie” dash motif adds considerable visual appeal and added seat belts front and rear enhance cruising safety.Staying true to its roots while featuring modern power delivery, the 210 is motivated by a highly detailed Throttle Body-Injected 350ci GM LT1 V-8 engine equipped with block-hugger headers feeding a full-length dual exhaust system. Supporting features include an automatic transmission, aluminum radiator, transmission cooler, polished coolant overflow tank, and polished billet serpentine belt accessory drive. Power steering provides directional control and stopping power is delivered by front disc/rear drum brakes including a modern dual-circuit master cylinder and power booster. The floors, underbody and OEM frame are consistent with the rest of the vehicle, being solid, sound, and well restored. Chassis updates include lightweight tubular front A-arms and HD rear leaf springs locating the 9-inch Ford rear end. Gleaming chrome and polished brightwork, plus BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires surrounding polished American Racing Torq-Thrust wheels finish it off. Casting a menacing presence with an aggressive stance, this 1956 Chevrolet 210 is a fabulous example with timeless original styling, modern drivability, and a top-quality restoration and build to its credit. Appraised value of $115,000 CAD. Canadian tax is not applicable.
