For Sale: 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air in Minot, North Dakota for sale in Minot, ND
Vehicle Description 1956 Chevrolet Sport Sedan 4-door Hard-top For Sale In Minot, North Dakota 58701 1956 Chevrolet Sport Sedan (4 door Hard-top) and it's a 2-10, not a bel Air.
History:
I bought this car back in 2009 as a project.
It was headed for a turn into a convertible project.
It had no engine or transmission in it.
The body was all there and most of the trim was complete.
The first thing I did was pull the body off the chassis.
I had the chassis blasted and painted chassis black.
Then the body went off to get body worked and painted.
I went with the color it was--Harbor blue and India Ivory.
The paint was a modern color Harbor blue.
I will describe the car as I remember.
I have done the work and have owned this car since 2009.
Let's talk about the drivetrain.
It has a GM 350 Crate motor with an Edelbrock carb.
The transmission is a Metric 200.
It has new U-Joints, and the rear end is stock.
Today, the 6 th of May 2023, I removed all 4 wheels, inspected the brakes and cylinders, the drums, and the hoses, and they are all good.
Pictures attached.
I then cleaned the wheels and white walls, re-installed them, and torqued all lug nuts to 95-foot pounds.
Note here:
The rear tires and rims come off the car without disconnecting the shocks like some of the resto-rods need.
The steering is very nice and easy.
I had installed the 'poor man's power steering' bearing idler arm kit and it is nice.
The original wheel makes the car steer very easily.
The shocks were all new.
The chassis was black and the under body of the car is blue.
You can see that there is no rust on the floors.
The body has ZERO rust.
It was solid to start with and has always been in heated storage when not driven.
Over the years that I have owned this car, it has had less than 4,000 miles on it.
The speedo gear is off quite a bit, so the odometer reading is over what is shows which is 4,300 and some miles.
It runs down the road very nicely.
The stereo system in the car is nice and sounds great! I have a radio in the dash only for a filler.
The under-dash unit works great and BOOM's as it should.
The interior is done like it should be back in 1956.
New seat covers, new carpet, bladder type padded dash, new visors, new headliner (my favorite part of the car), new door panels and the door sills were the last set NEW in the country! They are beautiful.
It has a nice new firewall pad and the under dash is nice.
It has new wiring.
It was Safety inspected back a few years ago and passed with flying colors.
You can drive and show this rare beauty to any car show with great results, and you will be the talk of the town!!! Fly in and drive it back to your homeenjoy the ride!!.
