This 1956 Chevrolet four-door sedan is said to have been acquired by the current owner as a bare shell in 2001 and subsequently refurbished. The car is finished in blue and white over black and is powered by a rebuilt 350ci V8 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission. Equipment includes a Holley four-barrel carburetor, an Edelbrock Pro-Flo series air cleaner assembly, a Holley Dominator intake manifold, an aluminum radiator with an electric fan, 20″ Lowenhart wheels, front disc brakes, front coilovers, air conditioning, a backup camera mirror, and front and rear bench seats. This Tri-Five is now offered by the seller on behalf of their uncle with a clean Florida title.
The car was refinished in blue and white around 2019 and features a hood ornament, chrome bumpers, hooded headlights, backup lights, a fuel filler concealed above the left taillight, and chrome trim.
The 20″ Lowenhart wheels are mounted with Landsail tires. Braking is provided by front discs and rear drums, and front coilovers and tubular controls arms are fitted.
The cabin features front and rear bench seats upholstered in black, and interior appointments include a fire extinguisher, a backup camera mirror, a phone mount, air conditioning, floor mats, lap belts, and vent windows.
An aftermarket steering wheel frames a 110-mph speedometer along with readouts for fuel level and coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer shows over 99k miles, approximately 2k of which were added under current ownership.
The 350ci V8 was rebuilt and is said to have been installed in 2009. Features include a Holley four-barrel carburetor, an Edelbrock Pro-Flo series air cleaner assembly, a Holley Dominator intake manifold, Chevrolet-embossed valve covers, and an aluminum radiator with an electric fan. The spark plugs and water pump are said to have been recently replaced.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a three-speed automatic transmission.
