We will start with the exterior of this Corvette. It's optioned with a removable hard top along with having the standard soft top. The body on it is in phenomenal condition and has been repainted in the Onyx Black Scheme with the Silver Cove. It was redone in base coat clear coat and has been buffed and polished to a stunning finish that's slick as a ribbon. We can see that up front all of the chrome and stainless has a brilliant finish, and the same can be said out back. The rest of the side trim and window trim are also very nice. It comes with the driver mirror and is finished off with a set of factory style 15" Steel Wheels with Wide White and Corvette Hub Caps.
Next, we will look at the interior of this '56. On the inside, it's done in the red color scheme, providing the perfect accent to the exterior color combo. The door panels, carpet, and sill plates are in excellent condition. The seats were all redone at the time of the restoration and we can see it has the 3-speed manual floor shift option. Looking at the dash, you'll notice that all of the gauges are in excellent condition and working as they should including the tach. All of the interior trim is beautifully and has been well cared for. Inside the trunk is equally nice and it's detailed out with the trunk mat.
Finally, we will get to the driveline of this Chevrolet. Under the hood everything has a stunning detail. The power comes from the 265 V8 Engine that's set up with the dual Quad intake and Carbs. The 265 casting is 3720991. It has the 2419S & 2362S Carbs sitting on the correct 378725 Intake. It's dressed in the original Corvette Finned Valve covers. For exhaust, it has the correct '56 model exhaust manifolds with dual pipes and mufflers that exit out the rear tips like they should. The 265 V8 is mated to the 3 Speed manual transmission that goes out back to the stock rear end. This '56 comes with drum brakes and we can see that all of the front suspension is in great condition. When we look under it there's no denying how well its been cared for as the frame is rock solid and all of the floors look amazing. Don't miss your chance to own this stunning 1956 Chevrolet Corvette.
