The 1956 Ford Victoria was part of Ford's full-size line and stood
out as a stylish two-door hardtop, offering a blend of luxury and
performance. It was one of the most popular models in Ford's
"Fairlane" series, which positioned it as a high-end vehicle for
its time.
Exemplifies Perfection-
This handsome '56 Victoria exemplifies the mid-'50s era to
perfection. The hardtop has been fully restored in 2014 to
virtually original condition. The exterior received a professional
2-stage respray of Mandarin Orange/Colonial White that is a
masterpiece. Accents include excellent chrome/stainless, front/rear
bumper guards, rear fender skirts and 15" Kontio White Paw Classic
wide-white radial tires mounted on steel wheels with full wheel
covers.
Restored Interior-
The interior has been fully restored. Stunning Orange/White vinyl
upholstery, door cards, headliner and a classic dash - all top
shelf. An aftermarket AM/FM/Cassette sound system has also been
installed with the original radio included.
M-Code Power-
Under the hood is an M-Code Thunderbird 292ci V8 that was factory
rated at 202hp-238 lb./ft of torque. This motor is said to have
been completely rebuilt and is equipped with an Autolite 2-barrel
carburetor with adapter in place of the original Holley 'teapot' 4V
carb, known to be a little finicky at times (multiple teapot 4V
carbs included). The Y-block runs like a timepiece and is backed by
a 3-speed Ford-O-Matic automatic transmission. Electrics are
12-volt, and the chassis is fitted with manual steering and power
drum brakes with dual master cylinder.
Look at the photos again - the attention to detail applied to the
restoration of this Ford Victoria hardtop is outstanding. With its
combination of looks, performance, and luxury, the 1956 Ford
Victoria remains a classic example of mid-20th-century American
motoring.
