Vehicle Description

1956 Ford Crown Victoria | Ardell Brown Classic Cars?www.ardellscars.com/1956-ford-crown-victoria/

This beautifully restored, 1956 Crown Victoria started as a hardtop and was converted to a glass top. This vehicle has been garage-kept. It features a 312ci 8-cylinder engine with a 3-speed automatic transmission. It's loaded with options such as power steering, power brakes, air conditioning, power seat and Continental kit. The engine, transmission and rear end have all been gone through. Everything has been redone including the chrome and upholstery all this beauty needs is a new home.The eggcrate grille featured on the 1955 cars was widened into a series of rectangles for 1956, but this subtle exterior change was nothing compared to Ford's adoption of a 12-volt electrical system across the line.?The Lifeguard safety package ? consisting of seat belts, a padded dashboard, a deep-dish steering wheel, and a breakaway rearview mirror ? was introduced.The option was a slow-seller. The optional air conditioner, which remained expensive and thus a slow seller, was totally revamped; the compressor was now housed beneath the hood and the cooling vents were moved to atop the dashboard.
