1956 Chevrolet Other 5-Speed

This 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air was refurbished and modified in 2011 during prior ownership and was reportedly acquired by the current owner in 2012. The car was repainted in two-tone green with airbrushed graphics over a custom green leather interior with an Alpine touchscreen head unit, Dakota Digital climate control, and power windows. Power is provided by a GM Performance 502ci V8 linked to a Tremec five-speed manual transmission, and additional equipment includes a Magnaflow dual exhaust system, an aluminum radiator, a stainless-steel fuel tank, 18″ and 20″ Boyd Coddington wheels, Heidt suspension components with coilovers, power steering, and power-assisted brakes with cross-drilled and slotted front and inboard-mounted rear rotors.

The body was reportedly stripped to bare metal and repainted in two-tone green with silver graphics as part of the aforementioned refurbishment completed in 2011. Exterior features include shaved door handles, remote door poppers, chrome bumpers, and airbrushed graphics on the fenders and quarter panels. Retouched paint chips are noted on the driver-side fender and along the edge of the trunk lid.

Staggered-diameter 18″ and 20″ Boyd Coddington five-spoke wheels are mounted with 225/40 front and 285/30 Bridgestone Potenza tires showing 2020 and 2019 date codes, respectively. Braking is handled by power-assisted four-wheel discs with cross-drilled and slotted rotors up front joined by inboard-mounted units out back. The car is equipped with power steering, and suspension modifications include a Heidt lowered front and independent rear suspension with coilover shocks at all four corners.

The replacement GM Performance Parts 502ci V8 is equipped with a Magnaflow dual exhaust system, an aluminum radiator, chrome air intake tubing, and a body-color finned air cleaner and valve covers. The engine bay and the underside of the hood are adorned with pinstriping, an air-brushed Betty Boop-themed mural, and a Von Dutch-style “flying eyeball” graphic.
