Overview of 1956 Dodge Coronet For Sale by Owner

The Dodge Coronet has been a model with an identity crisis, of sorts. The nameplate has been used on full-size as well as midsize models. It’s represented top trim levels, as well as entry levels. Seen between 1949 and 1976, a total of seven Coronet generations were produced. Today’s 1956 Dodge Coronet 2-Door Sedan comes from the third generation, when the nameplate remained a full-size car, but was now more mainstream. Hailing from Somers, Connecticut, this all-original car comes with under 67,000 miles on the odometer and a catchy two-tone interior theme. You’ll also receive the factory Dodge service manual and owner’s literature with the sale of this car if you choose to take it home.

Exterior and Interior

This 1956 Dodge Coronet 2-Door Sedan comes in Cloud Gray, and showcases those classic Fifties American styling cues that were all the rage back then. A jet-tube chrome-tipped exhaust pipe, chrome bumpers, chrome side strips, chrome hood detailing and even chrome wheel caps are all present and correct. You’ll even find a lovely Texaco service sticker which is an indication of an era gone by. The interior of this 1956 Dodge Coronet 2-Door Sedan comes in a black and ivory theme. It’s got front and rear bench seats, meaning that back then, six adults may very well have packed themselves into the car for a trip of fun. However, two up front is a safer bet, as there are only two lap belts present. Everything about the interior remains stock, right up to the Deluxe steering wheel, the push-button AM/FM radio, and even the controls for the heater and defroster. Indeed, it’s a lovely time capsule and a reminder of a time when people got by with far less than today. Pop the trunk and you’ve got a full-size spare wheel as well as a trunk mat liner for protection.

Engine

This 1956 Dodge Coronet 2-Door Sedan uses a 270ci Red Ram V8 with a 2-barrel carburetor. The Red Ram made a factory rated 175 horsepower and represented the best mix of power and frugality, next to the larger 315ci unit that buyers could select if desired. A 2-speed PowerFlite automatic transmission sends drive to the rear wheels.
