* Some cars are rather generic for 1955 & 1956 ie. have characteristics of both years. If you don't see your model listed in the '56 list it may be in the '55 list. Manufacturer of many of those models is also hard to determine so distributor's name is listed which is why some models look the same but have different "manufacturers"
