Up for sale is my 56 Ford Victoria - I have owned this car for close to 20 years.

Body/Paint- Paint is now 1 year old- paid 8K for paint....body is very straight.....this is an original CA car...body panels are original....no rust replacement....all original metal....Car is painted 2012 Mustang Red/Black....as I do drive the car- you will find a road chip here or there but over all in excellent shape as the car is garage kept under a cover - all emblems have been shaved

Chrome/Stainless- Very nice shape- car was built as a driver so you are going to find the normal imperfections here and there- but definitely presentable at car shows- if you are looking for a 100 point trailer queen where every piece of chrome and stainless is absolutely perfect- this is not your car- bumpers are smoothed

suspension/ brakes- front end/ steering box completely rebuilt 2000 miles ago- you can drive the car with one finger down the freeway- jamco lowering springs front and rear, Granada spindles and front disc brakes- also went to the larger station wagon sway bar so car handles very nicely  

Motor- 428Cj Edelbrock aluminum heads/10.1 compression/Crane Cam (over 540 lift so has a nice beefy idle) Edelbrock 427 intake manifold/ custom build headers and a custom one off MagnaFlow Exhaust System built by MagnaFlow (I work for MagnaFlow) Just the custom built headers and exhaust alone at any shop would be easily 2500 worth of work- The motor was put together by a friend of the family who used to build FE motors back in the 60s for drag boats- anyone familiar with Cobra Jet motors will tell you someone either knows how to build a Cobra Jet motor or they don't- and this motor was built right - transmission is a build C6 with a 2500 stall converter - with the huge Griffin radiator/ extra electric fans- car runs cool - stays right around 180-190 in 90 degree weather

Car is a definite sleeper!

 

Interior- nice shape- again car is not a trailer queen - but it has some nice touches.....autometer tach/ temp gauge down below B&M shifter- also went to a custom steering wheel which resembles the original wheel but is much smaller- aftermarket radio looks like the original one but has IPOD hook up

This is a great car- I hate to sell it but I need the money so I can go back to school and get my Masters Degree. Car was built to drive- but is still more then nice enough to drive into any car show pop the hood and grab attention as you see a ton of 55-56-57 Chevys but never seem to see any Fords
