I was under the impression that all 56 Chrysler products were 12 volt. Was this car a very early build 55?

I think the issue is that it IS NOT a 1956 Imperial. It is a 1955 Imperial = 6V

Look at the gear shift (not a 1956 push button)



Also headlight, fender and taillight differences:

1955



1956

"56s had "flat top" wheel openings front and rear where the'55s were full radius. Rear fin is definitely not present on the one listed and pictured for sale. And it does have the shift lever instead of push buttons as 56D500boy pointed out.

I missed the rear well opening change. I did see but didn't mention the front headlight "door" (bezel) change: 55 was all chrome, 56 was more hooded and body coloured with chrome trim.

One '56 Imperial model continued the radiused rear wheel wells of 1955. That was the Model C70. The Crown Imperial long wheelbase cars. And it is because the '55 Model 70 body was carried over for use in the 119 Crowns.
