Here we have a very nice 1956 Buick Century 2-door hardtop, model 66R. It has a 322 nailhead V8 engine, 255 hp, with a dynaflow automatic transmission. Length = 206.7", wheelbase = 122", weight = 3,790 lbs. It also has power steering, power brakes, power seats & an oil-bath air cleaner. The body is in very good condition, with a little surface rust by the rear window trim, and some rust on the rear J-bars, (a common problem with these cars). I have owned this car for over 15 years, and it has been re-painted sometime before I bought it. Most of the chrome has been re-done, including the entire front grille & bumper, rear bumper, hood ornament, headlight & taillight bezels. The engine compartment is good & clean. The trunk could use a new liner. The interior is excellent, including the headliner. The gas gauge, clock, & radio don't work. There is a nice stereo, mounted in the glove box, that I will be removing. Extras include a pair of correct side-view mirrors, some stainless steel body trim, exterior door handle guards, new weatherstripping, Buick floor mats, chrome headlight shields, and a car cover. The exhaust system includes dual glass-packs, and it sounds real nice. This car runs & looks great!
