Your data plate says that you have a 59 Dodge Coronet 2dr HT. The main body is black with yellow roof, fins and lower body. Build date around Nov 6, 1958 in Los Angeles, CA. Note that only LA-built cars retained the VIN number on the A-post. 59 Dodges built in Detroit, Newark, etc all had the VIN number combined with the data plate. You have a black and white interior using the custom trim package, which included carpet, air foam seats, and notch back seat. You *may* also have the 'Ornamental' accessory group, which consisted of dual rear antennas, chrome fin end inserts and license plate frame. Data plates on LA-built cars don't show much information. So you'll have to send to Fiat-Chrysler Historical for a copy of the build sheet.
