Looks like a very good restoration and reasonable price.
Would need pictures of undercarriage to be sure.

Nice car. Has been for sale for years. I think they wanted $41K at one point so $26.5K is much better.

As for "restoration", that is debatable. Interior is totally "restomod" (to me). Trunks were never that nice, not even in a Chrysler. Engine is close to OE D500 but the wire covers were painted black.

I would want to see photos of the rear springs (5 or 6 leaf?) and the cowl data tag.

Just sayin'

Those are much nicer words than I would have used for the trunk. I think it's a total disaster. Maybe suitable to house a collection of cabbage patch dolls & my little ponys. Beyond that, it's pretty awful. The interior is livable, but as you say, not stock and not as nice as it could have been.

The seller had three of these. Two of them were sold on eBay a year or two ago. All of them were "restored" ala Goodguys, Tri Five chevy style. Fuzzy dice, poodle skirts and "time out" baby on the bumper. I think he got 25,000+ for each of them.

Joe Peery's cars. He had two 56 D500s and a third non-D500 56 Coronet. Seems to live in Roseburg, Oregon. He is/was dice5 on this forum.

The red and white D500 car (originally 271 = white, charcoal, and coral) has engine number D500-1003 (3rd D500 engine). Hunter R. owns it. Been in magazines already. Magazine article has been posted in the D500 magazine section here.

The second one is a 56 coronet d500 with motor number is D500-4505 (supposedly). This probably the currently blue and white 56 Coronet under discussion. It had a "599" paint code which implies special order so all bets are off as to how it left the factory.
