Yes but also because as John commented it would have been a very expensive rig for 1956.

I might see it this Saturday. It's sitting at a shop in Lawrenceville, GA that is working on my '53 F100. There are many other F series projects (and others) at this place. You literally could spend a day looking at all the parts/pieces/vehicles sitting there. The owner is finishing up a '53 F500 car hauler that is powered by an Isuzu 5.2L diesel. He grafted the Isuzu instrument cluster into the stock dash and it looks showroom quality.

Is the Good Humor truck there to be restored or is it just a parts truck? It would be nice to see it put back to its former glory.

The Ranchero is really nice, looks factory but it's really different.
