The Roadmaster script was found on the rear quarters and within the deck ornament. Rear fenders had a blunted fin at the rear edge, with dual "bullet" taillamps below. A new panoramic windshield with vertical side pillars was used. Seats had chrome bands on 2-door models and rear seats had an armrest on 4-door models. The front suspension was refined and Roadmaster's horsepower was increased to 236, a new variable-pitch Dynaflow, in which the stator blades changed pitch under hard acceleration, provided quicker off-the-line getaway. In 1956 Roadmaster had a shallower Sweepspear that did not dip all the way to the rocker panel as on other models. Twin chrome strips graced the decklid with Roadmaster spelled out between them. Roadmaster script now appeared on the doors beneath the vent windows. Fender tip dual bombsights were standard. A brand new 4-door Riviera hardtop, proved to be the most popular Roadmaster, with 24,770 units sold and outselling the pillared sedan by more than two-to-one. Overall sales were 53,500.This example of the Roadmaster is equipped with Aftermarket ice cold Air Conditioning, Power windows, seats and steering. Originally born as Black and White, the overall change to Black and Red adds a bit of uniqueness to this one. During our time with the car all Brakes have been rebuil, wire wheels added, electric ignition, electric wipers, and Carb was rebuilt. Prior to our ownership extensive work was performed previously to include new paint, chrome, and interior. Making this car reliable and attractive for whatever you need it for.
