The Mercury Montclair received a series of upgrades for 1956, chief among them being the upsized 312-cubic-inch Y-block V-8 under the hood. When paired with a three-speed automatic transmission, this bigger engine produced a respectable 215 horsepower. Style, too, moved forward with the coming of the new model year, with the addition of new color combinations and sweeping trim that defined the car’s flanks. The “Big M” Mercury emblem now adorned the nose, just below the aerospace-inspired chrome hood ornament.
