Power and More Surety Features Goals for 1956 Crown Vic

Ford designers were puzzled when their 1955 model rated so highly in engineering and design, yet flopped in the marketplace compared to Chevy. With that in mind, Ford designers purposely retained much of the physical appearance from the ’55 model when they designed and built the 1956 Crown Vic.

Focusing on increased speed, the ’56 model upped its horsepower nearly 15 percent and eclipsed the previous year’s 0-60 time by 2.3 seconds. The bottom line was that the more powerful Holley engine allowed drivers to accelerate from 0-60 mph in 12.3 seconds, compared to 14.5 seconds in the same car one year earlier.

Safety as well as power were the two factors Ford concentrated on in 1956. The year before, in 1955, Ford had followed the lead set by Nash in 1949--which by 1955 had long since merged with Hudson to become American Motors Company (AMC)--by offering seat belts, at an extra price, as an option for buyers.

Other safety features that were introduced into the 1956 Crown Vic included stronger door latches, recessed instrument panels, padded dashboards, and recessed steering wheels.

It’s hard to believe that the less powerful 6-cylinder Crown Vic sold for as little as $2.337.

A smaller V-8 was among three V-8 engine options offered to Crown Vic buyers, and offered the same 173 hp as the V-6.

A few other upgrades incorporated in the 1956 model included an automatic choke for all V-8 models, increased valve lift, a new distributor control diaphragm, and changes in the differential .

The popularity of this car seems to have risen through the years, possibly because of its stylish look, as it’s not uncommon for the 1956 Crown Vic automobile to be named Best of Class or even Best of Show in car shows in the 21st Century.

Tiny reproductions of this classic car are affordable in die-cast form with opening hoods, trunks, and doors. Perfectly proportioned at 1:32 scale of the original automobile, these replicas would only take up 6” of space on your desk and be a great conversation piece.
