It is a Canadian-built 1957 Dodge Custom Royal and they came with a 313 poly
V8. The 1956 models had a 303 poly V8 and in 1958 they had a poly 354 V8.
The error in the ad is the A-727 Torqueflite. If the engine is original if
should have the cast iron caseTorqueflite and not the aluminum A-727.
It's too bad the paint shop did the firewall in GM/Ford black and not
Chrysler body colour.. I believe the engine should also be silver, and not
some dark colour.

Just curious if anyone else saw this and what your reaction is to the
supposed 313 engine....

This also leads to the question, why spend the extra money to list a car
with a reserve, when the opening bid is so high?? Would I be correct in
thinking that this car probably won't sell for $13000?
