It is not a hemi; that is the 325 Poly (same engine as my car). The car looks like a Coronet that had some Custom Royal parts added to it such as the dash (wrong color) and the front teeth. But it doesn't have rear bumper guards or all of the correct side trim. Plus the door panels are of the sport "Custom Coronet" type. Also, it is advertised as a "Royal" in the eBay ad. Someone is either really mixed up or making false claims about the car...

The car isn't a Custom Royal. Someone just added the badges. The interior is pure Coronet, and the exterior is missing the Custom Royal specific roof trim and fin trim. They also claim it has factory A/C, entirely wrong, it has an aftermarket unit under the dash.
