Expert Posts: 1479 Location: Pacific Northwest | https://www.ebay.com/itm/113842060517?ul_noapp=true Last time across the block it failed to receive a bid. The market is still SO flat on these cars. I really tried to get this car before it left Oregon for the auction circuit. I offered more that I should and he declined. Good thing cause now I have my Fury, which is statically a better investment. (not why I bought it. I bought it to drive it) I'm sure he has a lot into it, VERY nice car.

Expert 5K+ Posts: 9912 Location: Lower Mainland BC | Nice(ish) car but it still has the same problems that it had before. These include: 1. The engine is a D500 hemi. That's it. NOT a "SUPER RED RAM" (that was the 218 hp 2 bbl 315 poly). That said, the owner did paint the valve covers and air cleaner red compared to one of the previous times on the market (from a collage that I did of the previous photos): Current offering: 3. The metal end plate on the brake booster bellows was not black. It was some kind of anodized silver/gold/cadmium: 3. If SMS really did the interior (with NOS fabric), they F'd it up. The direction of the fabric is 90 deg out. (Here's how the fabric should be): Edited by 56D500boy 2019-08-04 11:50 AM (1956-Dodge-Coronet.jpg) (56DodgeCoronet 4 drInteriorBrochureSketch.jpg) Attachments ---------------- 1956-Dodge-Coronet.jpg (47KB - 101 downloads) 56DodgeCoronet 4 drInteriorBrochureSketch.jpg (76KB - 104 downloads) | ||

Expert 5K+ Posts: 9912 Location: Lower Mainland BC | In case there is some confusion, one of the previous times that this car was up for sale, the owner posted a photo of the IBM card. So as long as the IBM card is legit and the VIN is 35118945, the engine in the car should be D500-4988 with the car built on/around May 8, 1956.

Expert 5K+ Posts: 9912 Location: Lower Mainland BC | ABloch - 2019-08-21 3:29 PM That's what the block says. And it has six leaves in the rear springs. Well that helps with the credibility of the car as potentially having been a cop car. Having been built on May 8th, 1956 it wasn't one of the early builds when they all got the 6 leaf rear springs as part of the D500 package. This one had to be ordered like that.
