Revell RV 1:25 1956 Chevy Del Ray 1:25 Model Car

The 1956 Chevrolet was the middle model in what has become collectively known as the “Tri-Fives”. Slightly dressier than the groundbreaking 1955, the ’56 Chevy came in three models - the top of the line Bel Air, the mid-line Two-Ten series and the base One-Fifty. With a base price of $1971, over 56,000 Del Ray Club Coupes found their way to new homes in 1956.

The Del Ray was part of the Two-Ten series but was given some upgrades, including all-vinyl seats with additional foam rubber padding, a lighted glove compartment, two door armrests, and carpeting in place of rubber mats. Today the ’56 Del Ray is still a popular model although these days the classic shoebox look is often updated with good looking large diameter wheels wearing low profile rubber.
