Overview of 1956 Chevrolet 150 2-Door Sedan Restomod For Sale by Owner

This 1956 Chevrolet 150 Restomod is a clean Tri-Five build with the kind of mechanical and cosmetic upgrades that make these cars genuinely fun to drive. Showing approximately 3,050 miles, it features a custom Green and White paint job over a reupholstered Brown leather interior and is powered by a 383ci Summit Racing crate V8 paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. The engine has been positioned 1.5 inches forward, while Sanderson headers, a 3.90 Posi-Traction rear end, power-assisted disc brakes, electric cooling, and an aluminum radiator give the car a far more capable setup than a stock 150. Add Dakota Digital gauges, air conditioning, a trunk-mounted battery, 17-inch mag wheels, and an upgraded sound system, and this is a well-rounded restomod that blends classic Tri-Five style with much more modern road manners.

Exterior and Interior

The exterior of this 1956 Chevrolet 150 Restomod features a custom Green and White paint job, giving the car the unmistakable two-tone look that suits a mid-1950s Chevrolet so well. Seventeen-inch mag wheels provide a more aggressive stance while keeping the overall appearance appropriately classic. Underneath, the car benefits from power-assisted disc brakes and a 3.90 Posi-Traction rear end, giving the chassis hardware to match the added performance from the small-block V8. The interior of this 1956 Chevrolet 150 Restomod has been reupholstered in Brown leather, creating a more refined cabin while retaining the vintage character of the car. Dakota Digital gauges replace the original instrumentation with more precise readouts, while air conditioning makes the cabin far more comfortable for regular cruising. An upgraded Famous Sound Deluxe system adds modern audio capability, and the trunk-mounted battery helps clean up the engine bay while supporting the updated electrical system. The 5-speed manual shifter remains the enthusiast centerpiece and gives the car a much more involved driving experience than a traditional automatic Tri-Five build.The interior of this 1956 Chevrolet 150 Restomod is finished in Brown leather and mixes vintage styling with useful modern upgrades.

Engine

Under the hood is a 383ci Summit Racing crate V8 topped with a 4-barrel carburetor and paired with Sanderson headers. The engine has been positioned 1.5 inches forward and secured with aftermarket motor mounts, while an aluminum radiator and electric cooling fan help manage temperatures. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a 5-speed manual transmission and a 3.90 Posi-Traction rear end, a combination that gives this 150 the gearing and driver involvement to match its muscular small-block character. With only about 3,050 miles showing, the current build has seen relatively limited use while delivering the kind of sound, response, and old-school mechanical feel enthusiasts expect from a properly sorted Tri-Five restomod.
