1956 Buick Century model 66R Additional Info:
Here we have a very nice 1956 Buick Century 2-door hardtop, model 66R.
It has a 322 nailhead V8 engine, 255 hp, with a dynaflow automatic transmission.
Length = 206.7", wheelbase = 122", weight = 3,790 lbs.
It also has power steering, power brakes, power seats & an oil-bath air cleaner.
The body is in very good condition, with a little surface rust by the rear window trim,
and some rust on the rear J-bars, (a common problem with these cars).
I have owned this car for over 15 years, and it has been re-painted sometime before I bought it.
Most of the chrome has been re-done, including the entire front grille & bumper,
rear bumper, hood ornament, headlight & taillight bezels.
The engine compartment is good & clean. The trunk could use a new liner. The interior is excellent, including the headliner.
The gas gauge, clock, & radio don't work. There is a nice stereo, mounted in the glove box, that I will be removing.
Extras include a pair of correct side-view mirrors, some stainless steel body trim, exterior door handle guards,
new weatherstripping, Buick floor mats, chrome headlight shields, and a car cover.
The exhaust system includes dual glass-packs, and it sounds real nice.
This car runs & looks great!
