Vehicle Description
We love this 1956 Chevrolet 210 Handyman wagon, because just like
the Nomad, it's cool two-door styling is rare. But as you look over
the ultra-slick paint, custom A/C interior, and powerful stroker V8
under the hood, you'll realize that this classic Is in a class all
of its own.
A black like this is the direct result of care, sweat, and plenty
of cash. You have to start by getting the sheetmetal to look great
and line up evenly. Then apply a deep black and plenty of modern
clearcoat until this has a luster that will make you swear the car
was forged from onyx. With a shine this nice, only the best
brightwork will do. The '56 Chevys have a lot of unique trim,
especially for a rare Handyman. That's why we're excited to see it
not only complete, but also everything looks mirror-like. From the
ultra wide grille that looks like a 10,000- watt smile, to the
wraparound bumpers, to the sweeping side trim, the whole car makes
a shining first impression. And while this is a true stunner, the
large 17-inch torque thrust-style alloys are there to hint that
there's plenty of performance within.
Open the door, and you'll see more great signs of investment. Few
color combinations look more premium than a black car with a camel
leather interior. So when it's as new and as fresh as every inch of
this one, you're going to get a lot of attention. The complete
custom setup starts with bucket seats that would look at home in a
Corvette. Plus, they are power adjustable to give you far more
comfort than any '50s machine ever could. The color on the seats
coordinates with the side panels, carpet trim, and suede headliner
for an amazing uniform presentation. It even matches the custom
center console that's home to great modern conveniences like the
AM/FM/CD stereo with iPod hookup and controls for the R134a air
conditioning. That makes a wagon like this the perfect machine to
carry around plenty of family and friends (and the luggage, too!)
But the best treats are reserved strictly for the driver. You get
the artful Chevy factory wheel in gloss black, and as you start to
look over the dashboard, you'll be happy to see it retains the dual
cowl appearance that made these Chevys so cool. But this is still a
full custom setup that includes a full set of Classic Instruments
gauges.
Since you're going to want to be showing off every inch of this
unique Chevy, the engine bay doesn't disappoint. Within the black
painted fender walls, this V8 radiates power with nearly every
component shining (we dare you to find something else that can be
polished.) This is a stunner for the car shows, and when you look
beyond the shine, there's some serious performance substance, too.
It's a 383 cubic-inch stroker V8 enhanced with an Edelbrock
four-barrel carburetor, Weiand intake, and performance headers.
While the growl of the Magnaflow dual exhaust will make you love
the performance even when this Chevy is standing still, there is
much more here than just pure power. For example, the 700R4
four-speed automatic transmission is stout enough for the enhanced
V8, and it also has highway-friendly overdrive. Plus, the new power
steering system, front disc brakes, and the grip of modern tires
are perfect anytime driving features. There are even dual electric
fans to keep this Chevy running cool even when you're in traffic
with the A/C running. That makes this custom the perfect choice for
driving near or far.
It comes complete with restoration photos, so you can experience
this rare Handyman's transformation. You already know that the
paint, interior, and motor are each amazing on their own. So when
it's in one total package, you know this is an opportunity at
something truly unique. Call today!!!
