    That's a pretty sweet ride, ya don't see many '56s. The cragars are pretty bad ass in my book.

    love it!
    I love that it has the correct factory 210 style paintjob still, too many people try to make thier 56 look like 55's
    car definately still has the look that I remember seeing as a kid (street freaks)

    I tell 'ya, that car looks fine! '56's have always been VERY, VERY close to being my favorite TRI-5 Chevy.
