Just to let all of you know, I have located a NOS Mopar top with back window for a 58 Plymouth. I am having it used as a pattern and remaking them to be EXACTLY like it so no more aftermarket designs. I used one of them on a 57 I'm doing now and they fit very very nice. Ill be making more of them in black and in white so you ever need one down the road, let me know. They take a couple of days to make....

Probably for the cool factor. At the Mopar show and shine last weekend here in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, there were the normal 440 cid, 340s and Hemis but the car that caught everyone's eye was the 59 Dodge with the supercharged, EFI and distributerless slant six! The guy added the EFI and supercharger off of a 3.8L thunderbird and the distributer less ignition off a late model Chevy. I wish that I had taken pictures, it was very well done and looked factory stock - no hack job! The slant six worked well because it has lots of room to add the supercharger without modding the hood. Very nice.

I am sure that you will get a more complete answer from the list, however, here is what I know about Dodge trim for 1956. I am sure that 1955 would be similar. The Dodges for 55 and 56 came in three different models. The Custom Royal was top of the line trim, the Royal was middle of the line trim, and the Coronet was the bottom of the line trim. That being said, however, the Custom Royal and the Coronet also had a convertible version. The Royal did not come in a convertible. The Lancer was added to all three trim levels to denote a hardtop. The hardtop was available in all three models (i.e. Custom Royal Lancer, Royal Lancer, and Coronet Lancer) The six cylinder models did not include the v trim on the hood (denotes V8). It stands to reason that since your car is a middle of the trim line model (like mine is), your car might not have come with the chrome fin. P.S. They also had two wagon models in 1955 and 1956. The Sierra and the Suburban. Let me know if you have other questions. I would be happy to reply.
