[quote G25DF515YAM9YB2F]I'm adding the 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air Sports Sedan to the list. Here was a car that offered an abundance of power which was wrapped in a stylish four door hardtop design at an affordable price for the "average" buyer (at least in the USA). This was not a car that relied on a badge to proclaim its difference. It's very design combined the svelte lines of an aspirational two door coupe with the family practicality of a four door sedan. It was GM's styling and engineering prowess on display for all to see, at an everyday "low" price. Even today, when you see one of these cars cruise past you cant but help say WOW![/quote] Great call Retro - nearly all US manufacturers introduced 4-door hardtops in '56 including Rambler, and all of them have a WOW factor.
