Introduced in November 1955, the 1956 Chevrolet became the nation's
most popular new car. The top-of-the-line Bel Air was now available
in seven different body styles, including the six-person, two-door
hardtop, which was marketed as the 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air.
Standard-equipped deluxe trim moldings, an electric clock, and a
lockable glove box complete with lighting, the Bel Air was offered
with an array of power options topped by the 265-cubic-inch V-8. As
the high-horsepower V-8 model was actually lighter than the
six-cylinder cars, and consequently yielded a superior
power-to-weight ratio, it was little wonder that the 1956 V-8
Chevys became known as "the Hot Ones."
HIGHLIGHTS:
• No expense spared frame-off restoration
• 265 CI V-8 engine
• 2-speed Powerglide automatic transmission
• Two tone Neptune Green and India Ivory with matching interior
• Pushbutton factory AM radio
• Factory dash clock
• Body colored wheels with full wheel covers
• Coker wide Whitewall tires
This beautifully restored and desirably appointed Bel Air is one of
the more beautiful examples to be publicly offered in recent
memory. Equipped with the 265 cubic inch V8 and two-speed
Powerglide automatic transmission, this Chevy's drivetrain features
a four-barrel carburetor and dual exhaust.
The Bel Air continues to benefit from a high-quality restoration in
the fabulous two-tone color combination of Neptune Green and India
Ivory, complete with a matching two-tone interior adorned with
carpeted floormats. The Bel Air is further equipped with electric
windshield wipers, full wheel covers, chrome exhaust extensions,
front and rear fender guards, door guards, rocker molding trim,
bumper guards, and rear fender skirts while the interior is
appointed with a heater and pushbutton AM radio.
Shod with Coker whitewall tires and accompanied by a spare wheel,
this beautifully finished 1956 Chevrolet Bel would make a fantastic
addition to any collection of American postwar classics, poised for
enjoyable cruising or display at local car shows and exhibitions of
1950s Americana. Call today!
