Overview of 1956 Chevrolet 210 Handyman Wagon Restomod For Sale by Owner

A mainstay of American life in the 1950s, the Chevrolet 210 was made for just four short years. Despite that, it managed to muster two generations between its 1953-1957 production run, before being succeeded by the Biscayne. Today, the Chevy 210 is slowly gaining a reputation for being a proper American classic, on account that it provided stalwart motoring for countless middle-class Americans in its time. The range was available in many forms, including as a sedan, wagon, hardtop, coupe, and convertible. This 1956 Chevrolet 2-Door Wagon Restomod is a wagon with a difference, as it's packing a meaty engine under the hood, but maintains much of its classic persona as well. So if you’re in the market for a classic car but aren’t ready to go fully period correct, this car is a great way to test the waters.

Exterior and Interior

Right off the bat, you can tell that something is cooking with this 1956 Chevrolet 210 2-Door Wagon Restomod. For starters, its custom blue and silver exterior gray paint definitely isn’t a Fifties theme, neither are its five spoke silver alloy wheels. Beneath all this lies a custom chassis but once again, you wouldn’t know it unless you took a look beneath the car. That’s because it’s still got classic elements such as circular headlamps, a wrap-around windshield, and chrome bumpers. The interior of this 1956 Chevrolet 210 2-Door Wagon Restomod continues the two-tone blue and silver theme but swaps out the old bench seats for four individual seats that offer much more comfort and support. Then, there’s a digital gauge cluster sitting pretty within the old factory gauge pod in the dashboard, while a custom center console runs down the length of the interior, bisecting both rows of seats. Within this center console lies an Autosound Custom radio which is hooked up to a CD changer mounted beneath one of the seats. The speakers are also discretely scattered around the cabin, adding to the retro-modern vibe of this car.

Engine

Fire up the engine of this 1956 Chevrolet 210 2-Door Wagon Restomod and you’ll definitely know that it isn’t ’50s stock. Nope, there’s a blown 489ci ZL1 V8 engine waiting to unleash bucketloads of power and torque to the wide rear wheels via a 6-speed manual gearbox and Ford 9-inch rear end. Yes, this is very much a driver’s car.
