Collector car searches...
I'm looking for a '56 Victoria.
Anyone have ideas on where to look other than www.collectorcartraderonline.com www.hemmings.com ?? I'm taking my time to find a decent buildable car, since it will be my first real hot rod. Thanks.

A 56 Victoria huh ... interesting choice. Is this gonna be a restoration or a hot rod ? Up till 58 they didn't have much room for the big motors. |

Yeah it will be a hot rod. I'm just going to put a "little" 351 Cleveland in it. Figure it would be a nice looking little runner. I've got a soft spot for the shoebox Fords and that's the best one, IMO.

1956 Victoria
My Aunt used to own one. My father has it now, but it has sit for a long time. Are you looking for one as a project car or are you wanting one that is up and running? I know the car is a Victoria, but I will double check the year. I am almost positive it is a '56. I can't promise you that my dad will part with it b/c he is restoring some of his antiques now....plus it may not be what you want, but I will check and post again.

Ideally, a runner would be sweet, but I don't know if I'll be able to find one that is. I'll end up doing a motor and trans swap, but driving it around while I work on the body would be nice.
If you're checking, here's exactly what I'm looking for. '56 victoria 2dr, no post.
