Details

This outstanding 1956 Chevrolet 210 custom is total eye candy and loaded with many upgrades throughout. This car has been completely restored to show-quality standards and attracts a ton of attention wherever it goes. This car was a 4-year meticulous, nut-and-bolt, frame-off restoration that was completed in 2013. A binder with restoration receipts is included. Since completion it’s been driven 2,690 miles and proven to be very reliable. The car retains most of its original sheet metal throughout. The body was taken to bare metal and is very straight. The door handles and trunk lid keyhole were shaved for a smooth look, and they open with a remote-control transmitter that works very nicely. The car was painted House of Kolor Pagan Gold over Cinnamon and White Pearl. These colors are absolutely stunning, especially in the sunlight. This was an expensive high-end paint job that speaks volumes. All the glass is new and tinted throughout, and all the exterior trim has been restored or replaced to high standards. The car sits proudly on Boyd Coddington polished wheels that are 17” on the front and 18” on the rear. The all-new tan leather interior is truly amazing in every sense of the word. The leather and suede upholstery work was completed by Bill's Auto Upholstery, known for their award-winning interior work. As documented, the interior upholstery work was over $10,000. The dash was painted the same color as the exterior and dressed in chrome. Some interior custom features include a Classic Instruments gauge cluster, Ididit chrome tilt steering column, billet steering wheel, rearview mirror, chrome doorknobs, billet handles, billet pedals, Vintage Air and a Rockford Fosgate custom sound system with speakers in the doors and rear shelf. This interior smells as good as it looks. The rear trunk was boxed and upholstered to match the interior exactly. A custom battery cover was made with easy access. The engine compartment is highly detailed throughout and like a jewelry box with fabricated firewall and radiator support. The car is powered by a Jegs 350ci crate engine rated at 330hp. The block was painted to match the exterior and outfitted with Edelbrock Endurashine intake, billet valve covers, billet air cleaner and a March Performance Style Track front pulley system. It has custom braided lines, custom hose clamps and hidden wires throughout. The engine is cooled by a custom Griffin aluminum radiator with electric fans and billet overfill canister, and breathes through ceramic headers and a polished exhaust system with MagnaFlow mufflers and chrome tips. This exhaust system sounds really sweet. The engine is coupled to a 700R4 automatic transmission with overdrive. The car is equipped with power steering with a chrome power steering pump. The undercarriage is detailed throughout and mirror-quality. The original frame was modified by Sandrail Fabricators in California, and was reinforced for strength and powder-coated for durability. The underside of the body was painted with a durable finish as well. The front suspension system is a Heidts setup with RideTech coilovers, while the rear suspension is a 4-link setup with RideTech coilovers. It’s equipped with a CPP power braking system with chrome booster, chrome master cylinder and front disc brakes with slotted rotors. It also has a custom stainless fuel tank. This car is simply awesome and a blast to drive. This car has recently been serviced and detailed, which is documented with an invoice that is included.
