315 Super Red Ram engine with 2-speed push button Powerflight transmission. The motor and transmission run and shift great. Brake system is all new. Exhaust and shocks are new as well. The interior is all original. The door panels, kick panels, rear panels, and headliner are all in good condition. The seats are stained and the driver seat is torn and shows excessive wear. Dash looks great and all the gauges work. Lights and turn signals are in working order (I drive the car to work a couple times a week). All the glass is good. Exterior paint is old and needs sanding and a repaint. Right quarter panel shows to have had some damage in the past but is an easy fix. Clean Oklahoma title.

Interesting. Custom Royal side trim and Taillights but headlight bezels ("doors") are Coronet or Royal. Beautiful headliner. Heater core is being bypassed. From my understanding, the taillight area should be the same colour as the roof so either the roof or the taillight area had a paint job at some point.

Regardless, if it is rust free, it would have been a car that I would have been interested in.

Based on the interior and tail section I think this is a Custom Royal, but one that has had some (substantial?) front end damage that was repaired with a 1956 Coronet front half (no teeth on the grills).

Good catch. I missed the lack of teeth while concentrating on the headlight bezels ("doors").

I spoke to the owner, and other than the different grill and headlight rings, he hasn't seen any signs of accident damage on the car.

Well, there is some kind of story lurking there somewhere. Back = Custom Royal (missing a trim piece on the left rear fender). Front = Coronet or Royal (but why?). We'll never know why.

Certainly a less than fully optioned Custom Royal.
