Here are a couple that I can think of off the top of my head. [url]http://56classicchevy.com[/url] [url]www.trifive.com/garage/1956%20Chevy%20Index.htm[/url] [url]www.trifiveclassics.com[/url]

Yes...Congratulations on your new car...and I'm sure it's a great one. Decoding your VIN: 1st symbol = model and series: C - Bel Air 2400 series six cylinder; VC - Bel Air 2400 series V8 2nd & 3rd symbol = model year: 56 - 1956 4th symbol = assembly plant: A - Atlanta, GA.; B - Baltimore, MD.; F- Flint, MI.; J - Janesville, WI.; K - Kansas City, MO.; L - Los Angeles, CA.; N- Norwood, OH.; O = Oakland, CA.; S - St. Louis, MO.; and T - Tarrytown, NY. Last 6 symbols = production sequence number in the specific factory
