Vehicle Detail
1956 Corvette Convertible, Numbers matching! 265 V-8 with 225 horsepower Dual 4 bbl Carbs, 9-Fin Valve Covers, Powerglide trans, RARE!-Power Convertible Soft Top. 26079 Original Miles. Original Wheels and 6.70-15 Wide Whitewall tires in front, and 7.10-15 Wide Whitewall tires in back. It is missing part of the windshield frame as you can see in the photos. The seats and seat frames were stored indoors and are in great condition for their age. This Classic is very rare and you won't find these anymore. It is probably 99% Complete and original. It is a barn/field find and was stored for 53 years. It will need a restoration. It does not run. Body was hit in passenger hinge pillar area and there was damage to passenger floor, rocker panel, dash, passenger door and firewall. It does have a new passenger hinge pillar glued in, but it will need re-glued in correct location. It will also come with a cowl section from a 58-62 corvette to use for repairs on passenger side, cowl section alone is worth $2k. It will also come with a very good condition passenger door for replacement. There was a previous panel replacement on right front I think, but can't tell, will need some glass work. It will need fiberglass work in some other areas, just to let you know so you don't expect it to be perfect. The wheels on it are off of my S-10 and don't go with it, It does have the 4 original wheels with 3 original hub caps. Owner lost the title 50 years ago, and therefore it does have a clear bonded title as 1956 corvette. If your looking for a driver-keep looking, this is a project and needs someone who is willing to appreciate it and do what it needs. Frame is in great condition with surface rust. If you don't have the cash don't call. These opportunities don't come along every day. Call to come see, thanks. If your serious about it call 402-305-1337. This is also advertised locally and I reserve the right to cancel the listing. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.
