Paul & Dian Robb’s 1956 Hardtop

Customer: Paul Robb

Vehicle: 1956 2 Door Hardtop

Purchased at least 18 years ago at the Pomona Swap Meet, in Pomona, CA. The owner from Bakersfield had too many Classic cars and his wife told him one had to go!

It’s a good driver with a few rust spots. Unknown when purchased an accident damaged the left rear quarter panel.

The upholstery including headliner, floors and trunk were replaced. Rims and dual exhaust, power steering, power front disc brakes and adjustable steering column installed. Vintage Air added. In January, 2015 all body repair work was done and then repainted in original colors. All chrome was polished or replaced and window glass was replaced with tinted glass.

I didn’t have much trouble finding parts and found most at The Filling Station and Danchuk.

We also have a 1939 Chevrolet Master Deluxe 4-Door Sports Sedan. At our age other than car shows and recreation, no plans for any new projects. My best advice is that YOU ARE NEVER DONE RESTORING A PROJECT.
