Description

What an outstanding rendition of one of America's most beloved classics! This 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air Tribute wears an attention grabbing, black and gray paint scheme that's in great form, showing a nice, deep shine and ornamented with a clean assortment of chrome trim. It features a tastefully lowered stance that confirms skilled aftermarket workmanship without compromising the ground clearance needed for frequent driving, and it rolls on a set of 18" U.S. mags that add the perfect touch to its stellar curb appeal. Take a closer look and you'll appreciate the crystal-clear glass surrounding the cabin, and how well the body panels blend together. And check out the evenness of that full-body trim as it transitions from fender, to door, to quarter panel.

The interior has been thoroughly refurbished and blends some nice modifications into the mix without detracting from the classic appeal Bel Airs from this era became known for. A pair of leather-clad, low-backed bucket seats straddle a custom center console and, as you direct your attention further forward, you'll see that the signature twin-pod configuration of the dash remains intact, but there's now an assembly of digital gauges inside the instrument cluster to maintain close tabs on motoring functions. A retro-sound stereo sits at the center to provide your personal soundtrack while out on the road and, while the air conditioning system will need a bit of attention to get back online, all the components are securely in place and the system runs on modern refrigerant.

Raise the hood and you'll find a 350-cubic-inch V8 standing by, nicely dressed in a variety of chrome accessories and outfitted with a high-rise intake manifold and Holley four-barrel carburetor. With its shorty headers leading to a dual exhaust that terminates in Flowmaster mufflers, this vintage Chevy has a very appealing, throaty exhaust note you'll never grow tired of. An upgraded aluminum radiator teams with a pair of electric fans to keep operating temperatures in check, and with both power steering and four-wheel power disc brakes on board, it stops and steers as good as it looks. Tubular control arms and a rear sway bar combine to give this '56 surprising agility and a more refined ride than its stock counterparts.
