OLD FORGE Motorcars presents this absolutely amazing 1956 Corvette Convertible. This is as much a story about the man who owned, loved and drove this car for 44 years as it is about the car itself. Dick Robinson who passed away in March was a nationally recognized restorer of Corvettes under Richard Robinson Restorations Inc from 1987-2017. Dick was a man who gave more than he received. Many, maybe even hundreds of Corvettes passed through his hands over the years but this '56 was his favorite. He drove this car on at least 12 NCRS tours. He drove it to visit us here at OLD FORGE Motorcars numerous times. Dick loved this car. Shortly after this magnificent specimen won an NCRS Top Flight Dick replaced the 3 speed transmission with a four speed and the 2 fours with a single 4 bbl. The correct dual quad set up comes with the car.
In wonderful cosmetic (refinished about 3 years ago) and mechanical condition the only need is a new owner who can respect the history of this amazing classic.

Additional PhotosFamily owned and operated Old Forge Motorcars is part of the Old Forge Group established in 1982. The Principal, Peter Watson, is a retired car dealer who can't seem to stay away from interesting cars. Peter is a retired Lincoln Mercury Dealer (Old Forge Lincoln Mercury - Lansdale Pa - 26 years) and retired Ford Dealer (Old Forge Springhouse Ford - Springhouse Pa - 16 years). Peter has transformed his love of cars into a business helping to bring together collector car sellers and buyers. Old Forge Motorcars operates out of the former Lincoln Mercury Dealership building. A building interestingly was originally built to become a Tucker Dealership - that, of course, didn't work out well. Wayne Woodruff is our Sales Manager. He alone handles our e-Bay vehicle auctions - questions, comments - call Wayne. He's a great guy and loves to help people become the owners of their dream cars. By the way, Wayne is an accomplished artist - he does some great pen and ink drawings. The Old Forge Group also owns and operates 2 top quality auto body shops (Lansdale and Chalfont)- No, surprisingly, we don't do restorations - just modern cars.
