In 1955, Plymouth was the first car line to be restyled by Virgil Exner. It featured longer and lower body lines as a total departure from the 'bigger on the inside and smaller on the outside' influences that K.T. Keller had championed in Plymouth's designs. Further, a new V8 engine was offered.
The 1956 Plymouth P28 & P28 models were mildly restyled with the addition of rear fender fins marketed as part of the 'Forward Look' promotional campaign comparing the 1956 Plymouth styling to Air Force jet planes. The Convertible model for 1956 was only available in the Belvedere trim package.
The Plymouth Belvedere Convertible came with a standard V8 engine and it was the first year for the 12 volt electrical system and push-button transmission control, which was sensibly positioned on the left side of the steering column. The push button controls continued until 1964 when Chrysler reverted back to the standard steering column gear shift lever.
This particular 1956 Plymouth Belvedere Convertible received a total body off restoration and is finished in Briar Rose and Egg Shell White two-tone paint with a Black Convertible top.
