Description : Gateway Classic Cars of Detroit is excited to present this beautiful 1956 Plymouth Belvedere. The Plymouth Belvedere was produced by Plymouth from 1954 to 1970.The Belvedere name was first used for a new hardtop body style in the Plymouth Cranbrook line for the 1951 model year. In 1954 the Belvedere replaced the Cranbrook as the top trim and became a full model line with sedans, station wagons and convertible body styles. All Plymouths were treated to a major overhaul for the 1955 model year. This was the first year of Chrysler Stylist Virgil Exner's "Forward Look." The Belvedere returned as top-of-the-line. For 1956, Plymouth styling evolved from that of the 1955s. Most notable would be the introduction of the first push-button automatic transmission to appear in an American automobile, and a more dramatic rear-end treatment highlighted by a pair of tailfins. Belvedere remained the top full-line series through 1958. In 1956, Plymouth added seat belts. This 1956 Plymouth Belvedere is well equipped with the 277 CID V8 and Power flight 2 speed pushbutton automatic transmission. This beautiful classic is painted in a two-tone turquoise and white, complimented beautifully by a turquoise interior. Per the Plymouth Club of America, this particular vehicle is only 1 of 30 to still exist because it's a 4-door hardtop, and that figure excludes the color combo! Enjoy driving around town or your local car cruise. Either way you will have a great time enjoying this 1956 Plymouth Belvedere. This is the one you want to own. Accessories and convenience features include an AM Radio, Record Player, seat belts, wide white wall tires, amongst many others. If you're looking for a rare Belvedere that will turn heads anywhere you go, look no further!
