Now this is a cool Craigslist Find, and it’s not that expensive! This barn find 1956 Chevy Gasser was pulled from longterm storage in Texas where it was campaigned in the 60’s and 70’s according to the seller. I’m going to ask my father in-law, who raced a 1957 Chevy then in Texas and see if he knows the car. The condition of the car is rough in some places, better in others. With that said, we’d do whatever we could to fix the stuff that wouldn’t show and then get it up and running to look like it did just come out of the barn. Of course we’d have an 8000 rpm Big Block in it and a stick. Cause that’s how we roll.
Here is what the seller has to say:
You are looking at a 1956 Chevy 210. This car was originally campaigned on the strips around Forth Worth, Texas, in the late 1960’s and early 1970’s. Just out of long-term storage, I bought the car from a person who knew the original owner/driver. I have the phone number of the original driver as well, so full history can be established. Definitely a project car, needs almost everything. Has no motor, no trans, no electronics. Has original steering column, dash and gauges. Good bones overall. Body is in good shape. Has almost every piece of trim. Floors, rockers, and trunk need work. Firewall and frame were modified to carry a 427 further back. Comes with extra glass and cover. Clean Texas title from previous owner. Located in southeastern San Diego county. Price negotiable, just trying to get out what I have in.
