I think this car looks familiar. I tried a search for "58 Imperial" in this section, but could not find it.
The car looks kind of rough around the edges to me. A cosmetic restoration.
What is the extra panel under the rear bumper?

It's part of the original trim.......most of them were torn off or removed when they were damaged.....

What is the extra panel under the rear bumper?

This one has been on eBay for a little while now. It's also been discussed on a couple of the Facebook groups so maybe you're recognizing it from there?
The mudflap under the rear bumper was on 57-59 Imperials. The black mudflap material gets brittle and torn easily. It doesn't take much to rip them off after that
Finding a good mudflap is probably like finding a good DeSoto trunk mat

This Imperial is one of those cars that looks "OK" from a distance or to someone unfamiliar with Imperials.
The easiest way to eyeball bodywork on 57-59 Imperials is to see if the quarter panel is flush with the lower edge of the bumper

does the passenger rocker panel look "fat" and too low?

Knock the bondo out of the quarters and the springs will likely return to normal height.....

The body man has some talent, he did a pretty good job in making the quarters match.
