This 1956 Chevrolet 210 Del Ray will catch your eye with its classic two-tone and all that brightwork shine. But will really get you going is an authentic street machine setup with a dual-quad V8 and three-on-the-tree with overdrive. And when the full package is correct, right down to the Del Ray's specific interior, you can understand why this restored Chevy is already an award-winner.
We were told this was given a full frame-off restoration about 20 years ago, and the way it looks today certainly shows that quality work endures. The paint continues to have an attractive gloss, the doors have a smooth action, and it's highly detailed, right down to the red oxide paint underneath. So this one has collected plenty of awards, and it's easy to see why. The factory-correct India Ivory and Twilight Turquoise is a great 1950s color combo. Of course, what really sets it apart is the way the full-length trim is used to separate the two-tone along the body. And the brightwork is essential on these cars, because the jet-inspired hood ornament, artfully formed bumpers, and the 1956's exclusive grille are all part of what makes this such a legend. And you can tell the full package has been done with care, right down to the color-matched wheels with whitewalls to match the body's two-tone.
The turquoise and ivory theme continues on the inside. And not only is the color coordination important to the Del Ray, but also it's an exclusive package that gave the 210 Club Coupe its own specific interior pattern. The rectangle pattern on the seat and doors is quite distinctive, and it almost gives these Del Rays a pattern close to the custom tuck and roll design that the customizers did back in the day. The door panels, dash, carpeting, and headliner all continue this quality and coordinated presentation. Everything you love about these icons is still in place, including the fan-style gauge cluster, artful steering wheel, and Corvette-like dual-cowl dash. Just like the exterior, they spent extra time getting the details right. So while the general public will love the distinct Del Ray interior pattern, the fickle Chevy fans will marvel at the correct-style floor mats, working dome light, and AM radio that's still cranking out tunes.
Under the hood is proper Chevy small block power. The large triangle topper with dual air filters hanging off the sides signals that this one has the ultra-desirable dual four-barrel carburetor setup. And the restoration took the time to make sure this had an awesome period-correct showcase. This is why you have the red block with Chevrolet valve covers, Delco-Remy generator, and bright correct decals. The restoration story includes that the original V8 was not salvageable, and so they made a proper hot rod out of it with a larger (but still Tri-Five correct) 283 cubic-inch V8 with power-pack heads. You get to make the most out of this power with the column-shifted three-speed transmission featuring overdrive. The dual-quad V8 and overdrive trans were part of the factory options from Chevy in 1956, and so people who knew how to order the right car could get a performance-minded Del Ray that was more stylish than the 150-series but lighter than the Bel Airs. So it's cool to have a V8-VIN Del Ray built to those specs. You have likely already checked out the ultra-clean undercarriage. It not only makes for a stylish presentation, but also the newer components (bushings, springs, etc.) make for a car that feels solid going down the road.
The sale comes complete with restoration photos, receipts, and a service manual. This is a detailed build of a factory-style hot rod. And the way it drives today gives you a pure time machine feeling. So if you want to know what it felt like to be the king of the streets in '56, this Del Ray will take you there. Call today!!!

General Terms
Terms & Conditions
We recognize the need for complete transparency when buying/selling vehicles on eBay. That said, we did not build, modify, or have the luxury of personal ownership that would give us the advantage of knowing all unknown aspects of each vehicle. Transparency is king and we're happy to try and answer ALL questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we welcome and encourage independent inspections (see Inspection statement below).
FEES: A documentation fee of $299 will be added to the purchase price at the time of sale. Sale price does not include any Title, License, Registration, State or Local Taxes or Processing Fees. We recommend you familiarize yourself with your individual state's taxes, transfer, or additional fees.
AVAILABILITY: Please inquire prior to purchase to assure any advertised vehicle is not already sold. We advertise across multiple platforms where a vehicle can sell in a moment's notice. Vehicles may be sold prior to eBay listing end, and we reserve the right to end listings early or to cancel bids/offers solely at our discretion and shall not be held liable for any such cancellation.
CONTACT: Note that you may hear from us after to the sale, but if you are a winning bidder, click a Buy-It-Now, or we accept your eBay Offer, it is your responsibility to contact us within 24 hours.
INSPECTION: VERY IMPORTANT. If a buyer chooses to buy sight unseen (many of our buyers choose this option) the buyer accepts the vehicle AS-IS and understands we cannot address concerns post sale. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer/buyer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale.
PAYMENT: We require a non-refundable $500 deposit within 48 hours of winning or commitment to purchase. Full payment is required within 7 days of offer acceptance unless other arrangements are agreed to in writing. If deposit and/or full payment are not provided within said timeframe, all vehicles will be relisted and transaction will be considered void. For balance of payment we will accept bank wire transfer (preferred), cashier's check, or personal check (vehicle shipment will be delayed until check clears).We also offer vehicle financing, please inquire for details prior to making bids/offers.
SHIPPING: We have access to a network of private and commercial carriers. Most of them can deliver the vehicle to your driveway and upon your schedule. We assume no responsibility for damages or delays incurred once a vehicle is in a shipper's custody. Buyers are welcomed to trailer vehicles home and we are happy to have everything ready to see you off with your new vehicle.
DRIVE IT HOME: If you plan to buy and drive home, please keep some things in mind. Anything is possible when it comes to a vehicle, especially a classic or antique one. We recommend transporting all vehicles to your home first, then driving it locally. Get to know the vehicle and its tendencies before embarking on a long-distance trip. If you choose to drive your new vehicle home, buyer accepts all responsibility as we are unable to control what may take place once it leaves our facility.
DOCUMENTS & VEHICLE TITLE: All purchase documents are sent immediately upon purchase. To avoid delays, we recommend returning any required documents within 24 hours of receipt. Please allow up to 30 days for vehicle titles. Usually titles are available sooner, we ask for the extra time in the event there are unforeseen circumstances.
VIN VERIFICATION: We photograph the primary VIN location of every vehicle and make sure that VIN exactly matches the vehicle's current title. Buyer agrees to hold seller harmless from any disputes arising from other hidden or secondary VINs present on the vehicle as seller only verifies the primary VIN location. If needed, it is the buyer's sole responsibility to verify secondary VIN locations their specific state may inspect, prior to purchase.
MILEAGES: Occasionally our vehicles may be driven or simply moved around our facilities. Slight differences may occur so we recommend you confirm actual and current miles prior to purchase.
CONDITION: We cover the obvious and do our best to describe our vehicles in detail. Even so, please have a transparent conversation with us before purchasing. Do be aware that all pre-owned vehicles, regardless of age, mileage, or manufacturer are subject to cosmetic wear and mechanical failure. Finally, be advised that although our sales associates are here to assist you with your purchase, they are not trained or certified vehicle inspectors.

If you choose to waive inspection, do plan to have a detailed and transparent conversation with us regarding the vehicle's condition. Ask the hard questions up front. Please just call us, we are here to help and welcome all your questions!
