Continuing with this photo set, the 1956 Bel Air is next. I had considered just moving past this series, as my photos are sometimes not the greatest. I have enjoyed bringing together some photos of the other models not featured in the series. it gives me a chance to spend some time with them, even if it is just the photos.
1956 Chevrolet Bel Air in Crocus Yellow & Onyx Black (Franklin Mint)
in Dusk Plum & Dawn Gray (Franklin Mint)
convertibles in Sherwood Green & Indian Ivory -- Sierra Gold & Adobe Beige (Franklin Mint)
and then these two (the FM versions are all nice, but these two from DM are beyond exceptional) in Matador Red & Dune Beige -- Tropical Turquoise & India Ivory

Those all look fantastic and the 1956 edition is such a great subject ! It is an extensive collection here and all in excellent color schemes. These photographs are fine and show off these replicas well. All my 1956 Chevrolet are in 1/18 scale, I believe.

John, you can't go wrong with the '56. Every one of your models are gorgeous. I have the DM ht. the FM Nomad, the JADA convertible, and finally, the Whitebox 4 door sedan.😊

All beauties and excellent pics.
My all-time favorite 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air is TFM Crocus Yellow & Onyx Black Hardtop.
