Expert 5K+ Posts: 9922 Location: Lower Mainland BC | . Found the image below in a current (Aug. 24/2020) eBay advert for a 56 Plymouth colour and fabric dealer book (too rich for my blood). RDP from this forum enhanced the photo from the dealer book (thanks Robert) and I lightened it a bit more. I think that it is very readable. (I also think that it has a few typos in it ) eBay reference: https://www.ebay.com/itm/1956-Plymouth-Color-Upholstery-Dealer-Showr...

Sorry Nathan. I had totally forgotten about your thread. Yours is much better in every way. I can't delete my thread (this one) now so let's just let it die. Too bad there weren't trim codes with the fabric samples. Edited by 56D500boy 2020-08-25 2:40 AM | ||

Expert Posts: 1917 | . So, what we have about ’56 Plymouth Trim Codes: PLAZA AND SAVOY 825 = All Vinyl – Tan (Leatherette) – see a ’56 Plymouth Order Codes SAVOY 505 = Vinyl and Cloth – Blue BELVEDERE 508 = Vinyl and Cloth – Green 510 = Vinyl and Cloth – Rose and Black http://forwardlook.net/forums/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=70649&post... Notice, please: 1956 Dodge Trim Codes beginnings from code 526 for vinyl and cloth and from 826 from all vinyl upholstery… When the Plymouth trim code numbers are ending – ’56 Dodge trim codes are starting… It is significantly narrows the search Nathan: give a trim code numbers, please… | ||

Expert 5K+ Posts: 9699 Location: So. Cal | The book doesn't have the trim codes, unfortunately. Nor does the book for the '55 Plymouth. They are rather sparse on details. But my guess, based on the order they are shown in the book would be: Suburban: Deluxe---Gray Custom--Brown ----------Green ----------Black/Gray Sport Brown/Beige Plaza: Gray 499 Green 500 Blue 501 Savoy: Brown 502 Gray 503 Green 504 Blue 505 Belvedere Sedan & 2dr: Blue 506 Green 507 Brown 508 White/Black 509 Rose/Black 510 Belvedere 4dr hardtop: Blue 511 Green 512 Brown 513 White/Black 514 Rose/Black 515 Convertible: Blue 516 Green 517 Brown 518 White/Black 519 Rose/Black 520 Fury: Tan Leatherette 825? But as I say, this is a total guess that happens to match my cars. Edited by Powerflite 2020-08-25 3:40 PM | ||

Expert 5K+ Posts: 9699 Location: So. Cal | I just verified today that '56 Savoy Gray upholstery is Trim Code 506. So my guess is way off. I'm not sure how they numbered them. This is Dave's parts car: '56 4dr Savoy, 6cyl, powerflite, no heater, no radio, power steering!, manual brakes. Only codes are M8=3, M9=1. This might help to nail down which option designates power steering. This car is very odd though. It is a 6cyl Savoy with body code 625, which matches properly, but it has paint code 681, canary yellow/white, which is supposed to only be available on the Belvedere. I guess they didn't follow those rules very strictly. The back seat definitely was covered in the original gray Savoy cloth though, not for a Belvedere.

Is it an export model? No heater, km/h speedo, manual gearbox, low priced line, but V8 . Definitely southern car. European? Lewant? And starnge homemade body tag. "motor, chas, type" - looks like english. I think "merk" might be a clue. | ||

Expert 5K+ Posts: 9699 Location: So. Cal | It seems that M9=1 indicates power steering, or that power steering isn't included at all on the option plate. I think those are the only possibilities. | ||

Expert Posts: 1917 | . I guess M8=3 is Poweflite and M9=1 is a Delivery Route... It seems like M9=8 - Delivery Route by Rail, not a M9=1 | ||

Expert Posts: 1917 | . Might it be so? PLAZA 501 = Green 502 = Blue 503 = Gray SAVOY 504 = Green 505 = Blue 506 = Gray 507 = Brown BELVEDERE 508 = Green 509 = Blue 510 = Gray (White/Black) 511 = Brown 512 = Rose/Black Maybe Nathan’s Belvedere originally was white/black and not a rose/black? | ||
