1956 Chevrolet Corvette Resto Mod Roadster
1956 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible. The '56 Model Year was the first restyle of the first generation corvettes. It was about making a more powerful looking car to go with the true muscle in the engine bay. That means power bulges in the hood, rounded fender lines, and a subtler hint of a taiklfin. This Corvette is a frame-off restoration that originally came with a 265 CID V-8 Engine that was replaced with a 350 CID V-8 that is mated with a 3-Speed Automatic Transmission. The engine and transmission were both new and now have less than 2,000 miles on them since being finished. During the rebuild many new items were upgraded and installed that include an aluminum radiator, quick fuel carburetor, new wiring and harness, signal seeking radio with Ipod functionality, new and rechromed trim, rebuilt the gauges, new fuel lines and gas tank, redone the brake lines/wheel cylinders & shoes, new glass windshield and frame with original side glass, and even the exhaust system was replaced. This car has a beautiful Onyx Black exterior with Silver Coves Paint Theme that still shines and looks to be in show quality. The interior is completed in Al Knoch Red Vinyl Buckets that flows well with the Flawless Black Paint. Also a new black Coffman Soft Top Frame and Covering have been installed. This car is turnkey ready and ready-to-roll. Only 3,467 Corvettes were produced in 1956 and only 810 were black. The current owner has owned this beauty for the past 10 years and is finally willing to let someone else enjoy it after driving it. Optional equipment include: AM/FM Radio, Bias Ply Tires, White Walls, Hub Caps, Manual Top, Seatbelts, Vinyl Interior, This Beautiful Corvette is Investment Quality! Priced to sell @ $159,900.
