1957 Dodge Custom Royal Lancer Lancer 4dr Hardtop

I've not owed this car for long. My family and I bought it to enjoy, show, cruise, etc.... It has recently been on a 4 hour trip with 0 issues. We are selling it to donate a portion of the sale to our church's building fund as we just bought a new building! Toys are replaceable. The previous owner took great pride in this car and has had it in many shows and cruises. It is the car that always gets the attention as it is much more rare to see. It is a true classic from 1957. This car was the flagship of Dodge earning the title of Motor Trend Car of the Year in 1957. I believe that Dodge was leaps ahead of Ford and Chevy with their line up, as did Motor Trend. They called this the "Forward Look" for obvious reasons. This car has the original Semi Hemi 325 cubic inch engine that is in top notch condition. It starts like new and does not smoke at all. The tranny is the original Powerflite 2 speed automatic tranny with the awesome push button controls on the dash! The chrome is mostly really nice with minor pitting on some. The badges on the rear doors are probably the worst but still presentable. The brakes are flawless. The radio works great even with a cassette player. The interior is brand new down to the show grade carpet that was just ordered to be put in by the next owner. All the lights and blinkers etc work properly, including the wipers and washer with the original washer fluid bag! The windows crank down with ease so that you and the back seat passengers can cruise down the road with the huge opening below the hard top! This is NOT the sedan. It is the Lancer model which is a hardtop. It has 4 brand new Coker large white wall tires. The heater works great. This car needs absolutely nothing for you to enjoy it! This is an older restoration that has some wear, but is very minimal. The paint shines like new. The doors open and close like new. For the money, you will not find a better, sharper, and more fun to drive classic than this. Picture yourself or family cruising down the street in this dream of a car! It truly "rides like (or better than) a Cadillac"! The 4 door hard top market is going crazy, as people are realizing that you are able to get a car that hasn't been raced or hacked up into a race car like many of the 2 door cars were. Many of the 2 door cars that are bringing good money are not even hardtops. This is a true hardtop and there is no better way to enjoy the ride with passengers than this. Take it to the shows, drive it in the cruises with its 260hp V8 Semi Hemi engine, or park it in your garage and let it's value continue to climb! Please call me with any detailed questions. This is not a top notch show car as they have been selling for over $30k. It does very well in the shows as it is a 60 year old car that looks better than most 30 year old cars and is an all original, non molested classic survivor! My number is 319-231-8974. The car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction if it does. If you want to purchase it locally please contact me. Thank you
