- Abandoned Barn Find 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air Full OEM Restoration Project
This beautiful green 1956 Chevy came to Metalworks Classics & Speed Shop for a full stock restoration. The amazing survivor Chevy was a great starting point for an OEM style restoration. Metalworks Classics & Speed Shop took the Chevy from ground zero of acid dipping all the way through driving out the door in better than factory condition.

One BEAUTIFUL 56, another great build, amazing work, this is how I like these cars, original, this is a time capsule, I know the owners are proud of this BEAUTY, great job guys, you have a skilled crew, lots of work goes into a restoration project, appreciate you taking us along, THANKS.
Nice. Looks better than new. Going into my junior year (1962) in high school I traded a 1955 Bel-Air two door hard top, 6 cylinder for a 1956 Chev Convertible this same color but with a black top. It had what they called at the time the "Power Pack" option, which included a four barrel carb and duel exhaust. I drove it all thru high school and part of college. When I saw this it brought back a lot of great memories.
Lordy, that would have been worth a fortune today.
What happened to the 56?
I still have the 56 150 utility sedan that delivered phone books to our home in Santa Rosa CA. Serviced for 10 years by a local shop and purchased at auction by them...
I found it for sale in 1979 and purchased from the shop..
Still have it..never changed the rear package area..no back seat or window cranks on the quarter glass...paint code on vin tag reads SPEC..for company olive green special order. As aside Oakland cars came with one piece frames because they were lighter and cost less to shop.
Used to race a 57 10:90 car at Sears Point in Northern CA and had several gassers..loved them all!!!
Beautiful. This is the next best thing to an actual time machine.
Amazing work on the car, I love how you guys kept it with the nice era of its time tires. I love 50s cars, also the music is nice
Beautiful work I was a little disappointed you'd didn't go with wide whites however.
Incredible. 🇬🇧
Wow, that was a nice car to begin with and it turned out perfect.
She is one beautiful car! Great job bringing her back to life!
beautiful restoration a beauty chevy peace of histry comes alive love to see the original paint coordination and seats thank for sharing
Talk about rolling off a production line . Very impressive indeed. Well done
Beautiful car 👍How can someone dislike this nice car that has been turned out so perfect ..
Thank you for this Video,GOOD JOB! Like very mutch! Greetings&best Wishes from Germany!
Wow! 😍
Awesome that the 1956 Bell Air is having a restoration done to keep it long enough so the car can appreciate in value.
Nice restoration! I have a '56 4 door in the same colors. Glad to see someone keep the combo. Its beautiful when shined up!
Gorgeous restoration. Would love to hear it fired up and see it moving.
Wow! Very beautiful
That body started out in excellent condition ! You scored !
What a dream car&find
excellent job, very well done, thanks a lot for the video
I'd love to have all the 55 ,56 ,57 Chevy soft and hard tops my family cut up and destroyed for circle track racing ,we had a farm and had a small junk yard of around 3 to 400 cars and trucks i miss them
Good find 👏 👌 👍
Looks very good!
Nice Work!!!
Awesome awesome job I love the 56 bel air😀😃😄🤣
Thanks to the owner and your shop for preserving this rare color combo! I'm wondering if the car still had its power pack air cleaner housing?
Wowwwwww
Woww fery good👍👍
good job
Meravigliosamente bella!
Love the car. Beautiful ! Well done guys!! 56 hard tops were not seen a lot...mosty sedan 2 drs. Don't know the production numbers right of hand.
Had many 55-57's back in the day. Raced a 56 210 in Jr stock in the mid-late 60's
Note" You might do a little research. I can be wrong but don't recall a rear license plate bracket the same color as the body. Most were black as I recall anyway, pretty sure the front brackets were black, maybe because our state required font plates ...here anyway (old memory bank working you know).
omg what a nice job you did nice car nfld canada
👍👍👍👍👍
Show!!!
Good yob mang!
My mom drove a 56 identical to that one in 66-67. It was rusted so badly I remember they were coat hangers holding the headlights in place. That’s what Michigan winters do to the cars of the 50s.She liked to mess with the gas station attendants when she would fill it up with fuel not telling them the filler was behind the tail light LOL
That's better than OEM
🙂👍👏
Makes me wish I never sold my '56 Bel-air. Mine had the continental kit on the back and was a post model, Matador Red, Ivory White w/ 265 V8, 3-speed on the column.😪
🙂👍1956❤❤😊
It look as Cristina hahaha
I was wondering why the firewall had (those) braces (90* and 45*). I see the passenger side was for the battery but what was the reason for the other?
Hi Do you need some great lighting upgrade for the built to help it better driving, off-road and adventure.We're the pro auto lighting manufacturer for nearly 20 yrs and w're looking for sponsorship!
how much would this project cost? I have a 56 in great shape but needs new paint and the 6 cylinder replaced with a V8
Avocado green , on bel air , too soft that car was born for hard dark hi gloss colors, hard to say cause the resto is so 👍🏽🤷🏼♂️
On an OEM car the trunk would not be painted as pristine as the out side color.
Sexy Cool and Classico 👍👍👍👍👍👍😎
I know you guys were probably taking it back to original, but my gosh! All that work just to put those awful crappy (throw up green) colors on it. As awful as the color is, however, you did a magnificent job. Well done.

I just have to express my opinion on your project. It is by far my personal favorite of the tri-five chev's. I just love the 56 body style. My only complaint is that you kept that God Awful Puke green color combo. I understand that that was one of Chevy's original paint schemes, but it was the absolute worst color scheme that Chevy ever came out with. And if my memory serves me correctly, that color was never used again after 56.
All that work and money and ya left it that GOD awful color, in and out!!
Oh no another bomb another barn fine you want to sell your car put some dirt on it and put it in a barn turn it so they can find it
For once a nice restoration and not a restomod...
Are you guys crazy? Working UNDER a car on Jack stands? And in any case why wasn't this work done before the entire painting. That seems like poor scheduling.
