Short Trip: 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air 2-Door


Half of all custom cars are built for speed and the other half are built for looks. And then there are the cars built for lolz, that’s another one third give-or-take. I guess this next car falls under the advice my old man gave me when I was old enough to understand this kinda fatherly advice; If you can’t be smart, be colorful. Find this 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air 2-Door offered for $9,800 in Buckeye, AZ via craigslist.

Not my cup of tea, but how else are you going to get a running ’56 Chevy for under $10K?
I had a 56 Chev 2 door hdtp in HS i payed $250 for it yes it needed somebody work but motor was great 265 V-8 lousy castiron powerglide i converted to a 3speed on the floor with a Hurst Mystery shifter good name for it. Back in the day Guys would take a 4 door wagon and make a shorty out of it. Now there taking 4 door sedan’s and making 2 door’s out of them some look pretty good in fact.But the real deal 2 door’s are plenty spendy these days for decent one. I would take a post but love the Hardtops.
