It took us a year in a half to build this beautiful 56 Chevy Bel Air
Pictures do not do it justice. You must see and drive this vehicle to get the full appreciation of what a car should be
We started off with a weathered out 56 that had been sitting outdoors in Santa Monica for 7 years, so we had a project restoring
We started off by stripping in down to metal, we cleaned the entire frame and spray all metal with rust proof rubberized sealer. We then layed down Dynomat sound proofing complete interior and then black carpeting over it
We had the entire car repainted and clear coated, we rechromed and replaced all interior and exterior chrome trims, new seats and head liner were done by previous owner in a black and white vinyl tuck and roll from Mexico.
Brakes have been replaced, disk brakes in the front only and drum brakes in rear.
Installed new GMC Crate 350 Engine and new 700R4 Transmission by CRC Transmission in Thousand Oaks by Craig...
New Battery and Radiator, New 16 Gallon Gas Tank, New Power Steering and Power windows. New Wheels and Tires 17 inch Foose Wheels, Tires Yokohama, new original style Radio A/M & F/M, 2 new Speakers on inside panel of door, new black lap-belts in front.

Junkyard Gem: 1986 Chevrolet Sprint Plus
Fri, Jun 16 2023General Motors sold second- and third-generation Suzuki Cultuses with Geo or Chevrolet Metro badging in the United States from 1989 through 2001 model years, and we've all seen plenty of those cars on the street over the years. The first-generation Cultus was sold here as well, with Chevrolet Sprint badges, and I've found a rare example of the Sprint five-door hatchback in a Northern California car graveyard. The Chevy Sprint first appeared on the West Coast as a 1985 model, then became available everywhere in the United States for the 1986 through 1988 model years (in Canada, it was sold as the Pontiac Firefly). It was available here as a hatchback with three or five doors; for 1986 only, the five-door was badged as the Sprint Plus. Soon enough, The General would be selling many more Asian-built cars with Detroit badges here. Isuzu I-Marks were sold as Chevrolet/Geo Spectrums starting in the 1986 model year, while Daewoo provided the Pontiac LeMans two years later. Under the hood, a 1.0-liter three-cylinder rated at 48 horsepower. The five-door Sprint cost $5,580 in 1986, which was $200 more than the three-door (those prices would be $15,445 and $14,891 in 2023 dollars). I've documented seven discarded Sprints prior to this one (including an extremely rare Turbo Sprint), and all of them were three-doors; we can assume that price was the most important factor for Sprint buyers. Gasoline prices were crashing hard during the middle 1980s, but memories of gas lines and odd-even-day fuel rationing from 1979 remained strong. What cars competed with the '86 Sprint on sticker price? Well, there was no way to undercut the hilariously affordable (and terrible) Yugo GV, which cost $3,990. The much bigger (but still pretty bad) Hyundai Excel listed at $4,995, while Toyota would sell you a sturdy (but zero-fun) Tercel starting at $5,448. Even the wretched Chevy Chevette — yes, it was still available in 1986 — cost $5,645. The original buyer of this car was willing to shell out an extra $395 to get an automatic instead of the base five-speed manual. That's about $1,093 in today's money. This car must have been slow. By the end, the doors were held shut with duct tape, but it still stayed alive until age 37. 53 miles per gallon on the highway! It does everything. The camels of the highway.
