Life is too short to drive boring cars and there is no chance of being bored behind the wheel of this monster of a 1956 Chevrolet 150 street rod. The whole classic car hobby revolves around cars that make us feel things that modern cars can't deliver. Whether it be the reverb from the exhaust thumping in your chest, the g-force setting you back in your seat, or the smile quickly growing across your face, this 1956 Chevy is sure to make you feel everything you should when driving one of these well built street rods. This 1956 Chevrolet 150 benefits from a recently completed frame-off street/strip style restoration that presents very well. This Chevy is finished in a stunning Black exterior paint that shines very well and is in very good condition throughout. Complimented the 150's Black exterior is its factory style chrome and stainless trim, factory style "Chevrolet" emblems and a set of Billet Specialties wheels wrapped in Mickey Thompson Sportsman tires in the front and Mickey Thompson Street ET's in the rear. This great Tri-Five features a custom Black leather interior that is in excellent condition throughout and is a perfect blend of street and strip. The interior features a number of custom touches including the diamond pleated interior door and quarter panels, leather wrapped center console w/ B&M Pro Ratchet shifter, Procar bucket seats and 4-point harnesses, dash mounted Painless performance switch panel, dash mounted Autogauge tachometer, polished tilt steering column, rear seat delete, and 6-point roll cage. Powering this monster of a Chevrolet 150 is a very well built 454 cubic inch big-block V8 that has been bored and stroked to 496 cubic inches. Atop of the 496 cubic inch V8 sits a Hampton 8-71 blower and dual Pro Systems 4-barrel carburetors. This potent combination delivers more than enough power and torque to rocket this Chevrolet down the road with ease. Backing the supercharged 496 cubic inch V8 is a built Turbo-Hydramatic 400 3-speed automatic transmission with a manual valve body. Transferring power to the rear tires is a Moser 12-bolt rear end equipped with 3.73:1 final drive gears. This beautiful Chevrolet delivers an intoxicating big-block V8 note breathing through the fenderwell headers feeding the custom side-exit exhaust. Accompanying the exhaust is the whine of the 8-71 blower, which is sure to not only put a smile on your face but also on the face of anyone lucky enough to be in the vicinity. This well-built Chevy has very good street manners and handles the road very well thanks to its CPP tubular upper and lower front control arms, front and rear anti-sway bars, 4-link rear suspension and front and rear adjustable coil-over shocks. Bringing this Chevrolet 150 to a halt is the 4-wheel Aerospace Components disc brake system. If you are in the market for a very well built Tri-Five Chevrolet that is just as at home cruising down the boulevard as it is rocketing down the drag strip and would present very well at any cruise-in or car show, then you will not want to miss out on this fantastic 1956 Chevrolet 150 street rod.
