1956 Chevrolet Street Rod "Slikn" 

Damn, that is beautiful! The 1956 was the prettiest Chevy of the '55, '56, '57 years. I had a '56 like that back in 1971. Jade green metal flake paint job with vinyl top, which was the thing back then. Had a 327 'Vette engine, tear drop hood scoop, cragar ss mag wheels, Mickey Thompson wide oval tires, etc. Man, it was pretty!

"SLIKN" is proof enough for me that doing a hotrod yourself is a labor of love. It's all about the DETAILS. The DETAILS are emphasized at every nook and cranny on this car. Exceptional job fellas. Homer...High Fives to ScottieD, and the builders of this car. Much success in your showing of the car.

The sound of that motor is perfection...

I so love the understatement of Joe. Look at him: No tattoos, no silly tough guy show-off attitude. And indeed, why would he bother about 'branding himself'? Look at that car. That level of craftsmanship just speaks all for itself. Kudos to Joe and Josh.

That is one of the sweetest rides I have ever seen

Dame. That belongs in my living room on stands with wall to wall mirrors floor and ceilings. Just to look at that workmanship and drool. "Beauty-full"

That is the best 56 Chevy I have ever seen in my life! Wow! That is beautiful!

Like how the peak on the hood runs the full hood. Nice subtle changes on the car. As you say its cool, and cool is cool.

A few years late, but I love listening to the builder talk about his work of art! This is such a cool car to cruise on nice days!

Thanks Scottie you show the best video's. 56 Chevy is my favorite of the tri 5 the grill, front bumper and taillights won me. This one's cool Black and Red with chrome works. 454 built polished aluminum n chrome Rocks this!!!

That is a masterpiece of automotive art. It makes the Mona Lisa look like a doodle. The existence of such a superlative work reveals the need for the Nobel Committee to create a new category of award to recognize this contribution to human achievement.

One of the nicest cars I've ever seen. It's perfect.

I agree...well really it is over the top...in the attention to detail...but not in craziness...glad you liked it!

Hey Scottie I had to look again, Thanks for making my day you can eat off of the underneath I don't believe how this looks.Every thing is chromed Wow you rocked it. Perfect car in every detail!!!

Boy-O-boy Scottie, Josh & Joe sure show their love for what they do! You know I'm a FORD guy but, That's THE finest 56 I have EVER seen!!! Thanks Man!

Attention to detail makes or breaks a car, and they really knocked one out of the park with this car. You could look at this car for hours and not see it all. Great job, guys!

My first new car! A black '56 Chevy 210 Hardtop. I bought it at Langhorn Chevrolet in PA (near Trenton, NJ. for about $2700. I was in the Navy stationed at McGuire AFB in NJ and the engine in my '49 Merc coupe was tired. There was only a little over 2700 210 hardtops made so that makes them rare. What made mine doubly rare was that it had the "Power Pack" engine option which included a 4-barrel, dual exhausts and hi-compression (9.25 / 1) heads. The trans was the standard 3 speed manual and weighing less than 3,000 lbs. it was a screamer. The factory interior was very plain (cloth and vinyl). These seats are out of a '65 Impala and they built the side panels. The wheel is not stock but the panel looks pretty orig. I kept it about 7 years and sold it to a sailor at NAS Quonset Point, RI where I was then working as a civilian employee of the Navy, overhauling Navy A/C. COuld this beity? Who knows.

Amazing attention to detail.

Holy Smokes! This beats any..I mean ANY 55-57 restoration I've ever seen. This is beyond detailed! I'm nearly speechless.

It's very clean, I think it's must be the cleanest 1956 I've ever seen!

Wow, the best part is how straight the sides are. He better never romp too hard on it. Those quarters don't like to stay straight for long.

Love your website Scottie. Always a beautiful car to make me drool!

Great detail and design .

Beautiful car!

Dude. I gotta tell you. Before I got addicted to your channel, I used to want an Audi R8 for my summer toy vehicle. Now that I'm hooked on rods...I'm like 'Why the hell would I do that?!' I'm no builder but I got a 37 Ford 5-window coupe in my head that I'm sure would be more fun than anything I could drive off a lot. I'd love to see you get picked up by the Speed Channel or somethin, man. It's NUTS to see what incredible things regular folks are doing with cars.

Sweet 56; thanks for sharing!

Beautiful....

Cool ride. So after a drive down the road, then it's time to put on the lift, pull out a rag & clean EVERYTHING under the car

KILLLER FIVE 6 love the red n black 👍🐎

No Problem...thanks for checking it out!

Back in 74 in Mexico, I was 11yo my 1st hands on the steering on a 56 chevy drove for a a few minutes. Later moved back to L.A. only to find out my uncle sold it a year later. He regret it big time letting go :-(
