THE STORY

For many classic car enthusiasts, there are few more pleasing sights than a mid-50’s Chevy.

The Chevrolet Two-Ten, or 210 was the midrange model of the Chevrolet car from 1953 to 1957. It took its name by shortening the production series number (2100) by one digit in order to capitalise on the 1950s trend toward numerical auto names

These cars are known for their performance and looks. They share the bright body side trim design with their bigger cousin, the Bel Air and have a center pillar.

Two door hard top coupes such as this are the rarest of all, with only one built for every 7 Bel Airs produced. Less than 20,000 were produced from a total production run of 1.7 million 1956 Chevys.
