Description[]
The '56 Flashsider is based off of a customized 1956 Chevrolet Task Force pick-up truck (after-Chevrolet Model T, Chevrolet M / R / X, Chevrolet Series LM / LO / LP (1927), Chevrolet Series LQ / LR / LS (1928), Chevrolet Series LQ / LR / LS (1929), Chevrolet Series LQ / LR / LS (1930), Chevrolet Series LT / M / N (1931), Chevrolet Series LT / M / N (1932), Chevrolet Series OA / OB / OC / OD (1933-1934), 1935-1937 Chevrolet Pickup, 1937 Chevrolet Pickup, 1940 Chevrolet Pickup, Chevrolet AK Series, Chevrolet Advance Design (1947-1953), Chevrolet Advance Design (1954), and Chevrolet Task Force (1955)).
In 2007, a version of the casting with an opening hood was created for the Ultra Hots line. In 2010, a new chassis was created, which gave the truck a lifted wheelbase.
