BID TO WIN DON’T MISS OUT. THERE ARE OVER 110 DETAILED PICTURES IF YOU DO NOT SEE THEM SCROLL INSIDE THE DESCRIPTION BOX OR SEND ME AN EMAIL, THANKS! You are bidding on a gorgeous and rare 1956 Chevrolet Hardtop 2 Door True Bel Air. This gem was ground up restored about 8 years ago and has been well kept ever since. All of the original parts were kept and are included and are pictured. To start off the paint and body were taken down to bare metal 8 years ago and repainted with PPG red and cortez silver. The paint job is a good 5 footer some areas are starting to show their age but there is no rust that I could find, all the gaps are in good alignment, and there are no waves or bondo that I could find. Most of the stainless and chrome was replaced at the time of restoration and are still in very good overall shape but do show some minor wear over the years but again nothing serious. The bumpers both front and rear were just replaced within the last year and still look like new as you can see in the pictures. The front windshield was replaced and looks like new, most of the other glass is original and shows some aging but still looks good overall. The interior was completely restored in a nice custom tan and black 2 tone. All the foam was replaced along with the hardware in both the front and rear seats. The carpet, package tray, headliner, sunvisors, door panels, sill plates, seats covers, dash, trim, etc. were all replaced and are still in excellent shape as shown in the pictures. A new digital dash was just installed with the original dash included, everything works and the temp, volt, and oil pressure are also on analog gauges for added peace of mind to monitor this beauty. The tach, gas, speedometer, etc all work as they should and gives it a nice custom look to go along with the nice interior. I just had the entire wiper assembly gone through complete with a new wiper motor, switch, wiring, etc and they work flawlessly. A complete brand new wiring harness was also installed at the time of the restoration and lights, turn signals, etc all work as they should. All of the windows roll up and down as they should including the rears. Engine is a fresh rebuilt 355 Vortec with all the goodies, comp cam .520 lift, trw pistons, pink rods, polished crankshaft, 2.02 vortec heads with stainless valves, edelbrock intake and carburetor, hei ignition, double roller timing chain, just had a brand new high torque starter installed as well. Engine sounds nice and healthly and has about 375 horse, gets plenty of attention in the shows and has plenty of get up and go when needed but not to radical for the street. The engine has a lot of chrome on it that really brings people around at the shows and I just had a brand new aluminum radiator installed and high volume water pump, so this beauty does not run hot even in rush hour traffic. Transmission is a fresh turbo 350 built to handle the horsepower, it is equipped with a 2500 stall convertor, hardened internals, b&m shift kit, b&m megashifter, and all the other high performance parts one could ask for, it shifts perfect no issues or strange noises. Rear has been all redone at the time of restoration with a Richmond 3:55 gear, all new high performance bearings and seals, eaton posi-trac unit, and new axles. Most of the suspension was replaced 8 years ago, and the car rides extremely nice. This Bel Air just had disc brakes and a line lock installed along with all new hardware and the car stops on a dime, making it a pleasure if you wanted to drive it on a daily basis. The floorboards and trunk along with the torque boxes are all super solid and original, no rust or patches anywhere I could find, all of the bushings were replaced 8 years ago and still seem to be in excellent shape. As you can tell by the pictures this is one solid 1956 Bel Air. Even the spare tire holder is original and in excellent shape no rust at all. Car comes complete with jack, and spare. The exhaust consist of hooker headers flowing into 2 ½ exhaust exiting just before the rear tires, car sounds very nice and everyone will compliment you on the sound alone. Wheels are the classic Crager SS style wheels and they really make the car pop, they were bought new about 3 years ago, tires were just replaced a year ago so they are like new and give this gorgeous car a smooth ride down the highways. Overall if you have been on the hunt for a nice 1956 True C code Bel Air 2 Door Hardtop then look no further, the car is not perfect but is an excellent driver and is not out of place at a show. I have a ton of crates and boxes full of the replaced parts, grille, trim, hood bar, stainless, brakes, shocks, probably an easy 3,000 dollars or so worth of extra parts included. Everything that was replaced or removed is included as you can see in the pictures. Car is sold AS-IS with a clear Florida Title, you will not find a more solid 1956 Bel Air, any questions call Frank at 863-381-3499, or to schedule an appointment to look at the car, it is as advertised no disappointments, local inspections welcome and encouraged.
