1956 Chevrolet 210

Description

This 1956 Chevrolet 210 has been given the right investment to have a cruiser attitude that includes strong V8 power, a cool A/C interior, and an overall look and feel that tells you this iconic sedan was made to be enjoyed to the fullest.

This Chevy makes the right first impression. The trim tag tells us Pinecrest Green and India Ivory is the factory-correct two-tone. It was resprayed later in life to make sure it continues to have a nice gloss without overstepping the driver-ready attitude. And that's the full theme of this car. It gives you an icon of the open road with a nice sense of road-ready style. And the value price is there if you're looking to update details to full show-ready status. But you already know this is impressive from day one thanks to the brightwork. The wraparound bumpers, special '56 grille, and jet-age hood ornament are all present and complete. And it needs to get these kinds of details right, because after all, the full-length trim is the dividing line for the green and white along the body. And the addition of 15-inch Cragar SS wheels is a nice touch to announce this is a custom-style classic cruiser.

The interior has been upgraded so that the cool green and white two-tone continues inside. It's nicely detailed with pieces like the tuck-and-roll style inserts on both rows of seats, and the door panels were done to match. There's also a smooth dash, a nice headliner, and good carpeting all the way to the trunk. There are comfortable cruiser details like cold-blowing air conditioning and upgraded speakers ready for you to install the retro-cool radio of your choice. We like that this one keeps the classic style steering wheel and fan-style speedometer, but it also updates the full package with under-dash auxiliary readouts and a cleanly installed column-mounted tach. It makes for the right mix of vintage and useful that fits this Chevy correctly.

The Tri-Five era was the dawn of the small block at Chevy, and so that's the kind of power we like to see under the hood. However, this 350 cubic-inch unit is not only larger than what was available in 1956, but this one also takes advantage of decades of progress. It now includes upgrades like an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, an MSD ignition, and a Be Cool aluminum radiator. The V8 fires up eagerly as it makes a nice tune out of the H-pipe dual exhaust. The road-ready attitude also includes great driver-ready features like the three-speed automatic transmission, a Wilwood master cylinder, front disc brakes, and rear traction bars.

Here's a V8 icon that was made to be enjoyed by someone who wants to cruise a true classic in A/C comfort. Call today!!!
