NICE BARN FIND: THIS CAR STARTED ITS LIFE IN CALIFORNIA, THEN MOVED TO RENO NEVADA, AND FINALLY HERE IN SOUTH WEST IDAHO, ALL AREAS WELL KNOWN FOR RUST FREE CARS DUE TO THE HIGH DESERT CONDITIONS. RUNS, DRIVES AND STOPS. 1956 CHEVROLET 210 4 DOOR HARDTOP SPORT SEDAN. THE DMV TOLD ME THIS IS A VERY LOW PRODUCTION CAR HARDTOP MEANS NO POST SEPARATING FRONT AND BACK DOOR WINDOWS. THE BODY OF THIS CAR IS VERY CLEAN. I HAVEN'T FOUND ANY RUST CANCER OR COLLISION DAMAGE IN THE BODY. ALL STAINLESS TRIM IS INPLACE. PREVIOUS OWNER STARTED TO STRIP PAINT AND NEEDS REDONE. THE AREAS ABOVE THE HEADLIGHTS HAVE NO CANCER JUST THE PAINT HAS BEEN REMOVED TO MAKE SURE THEY WERN'T PACKED WITH BONDO. FLOOR BOARDS HAVE SOME SMALL PINHOLE ISSUES AND HAVE SHEET METAL PIECES THAT THE PREVIOUS OWNER STUFFED UNDER THE CARPET. SPARE TIRE WELL WAS REPAIRED POORLY AND NEEDS TO BE REDONE PATCH WAS STUCK IN OVER DAMAGED AREA. ALL GLASS IS IN PLACE, WINDSHIELD HAS SOME DINGS BUT NONE ARE OBSTRUCTIVE, REAR WIND SCREEN IS GOOD, WING AND DOOR WINDOWS (ALL FLAT GLASS) ARE IN PLACE, A COUPLE HAVE CRACKS BUT ARE CHEAP TO REPLACE. HEADLINER IS IN GREAT SHAPE WHITE IN COLOR, SEATS HAVE WORN OUT VYNOL (AKA PLEATHER) BUT PADDING AND SPRINGS ARE STILL THERE. DOOR PANELS, TRIM AND HANDLES ARE ALL INTACT BUT NEED REDONE. REAR PARCEL TRAY UPHOLSTERY IS IN NEED OF REPLACING BUT METAL UNDER LOOKS TO BE OK. CARPET WAS REMOVED BECAUSE IT WAS VERY STINKY! NEEDS REPLACED. ALL DASH PARTS ARE IN THE RIGHT PLACE BUT THE RADIO WAS REPLACED WITH A WORKING NON CHEVY VINTAGE MODEL. TRUNK IS IN GOOD SHAPE EXCEPT THE PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED SPARE TIRE WELL ISSUE. V8 AND POWERGLIDE AUTO TRANSMISSSION RUN AND DRIVE, REVERSE DOESN'T ENGAGE CONSISTANTLY. MAY NEED NEW FILTER IN TRANS (I WAS GOING TO REPLACE WITH A MORE MODERN TRANS). BRAKES WORK BUT MAY NEED TO BE GONE THROUGH BEFORE YOU DECIDE TO DRIVE ACROSS THE COUNTRY. THAT BEING SAID I RECOMMEND YOU HIRE A TRANSPORT COMPANY OR TRAILER IT TO YOUR HOME SO YOU DON'T GET STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE. NOTE: THIS IS A 57 YEAR OLD CAR THAT IS IN PRETTY GOOD SHAPE FOR ITS AGE BUT NOT PERFECT, IT'S TOO DIFFICULT TO DESCRIBE EVERY DETAIL WITHOUT WRITING A NOVEL. BE FAIR IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS EMAIL OR CALL ME AND I'LL DO MY BEST TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS. 208-570-7625On Dec-08-13 at 15:09:42 PST, seller added the following information: I forgot to mention I have a good set of original style hubcaps for it, they are the smaller version that covers the center of the wheel. these will also be included as well as any extra parts I have collected for this project. not sure what else but will scour my stash and if it's for this car it'll be included.
