1955 DODGE ROYAL CUSTOM 100% ORIGINAL WITH HEMI & POWER WINDOWS, SEAT MOPAR
1955 Dodge Other
This is a 100% factory original car. Garaged its entire life. Guessing that it is the original paint. This is a factory, all numbers matching Hemi car. 193 horsepower. 2-speed automatic. The car runs, drives, shifts, steers and stops absolutely perfectly in every way. Just a pleasure to drive! A previous owner decided he would restore the car. He spent over $27,000, completing just about everything mechanical and electrical. I have all of the reciepts.This car has had the engine rebuilt recently. All new cooling system. The radiator is the original honeycomb. Original to the car, as is everything else. Just amazing. The transmission was rebuilt. The brakes are completely new. Master cyl and all. Switches, lights and everything like that have been replaced so that everything works. Wipers work great. The heater and fan both work great. All gauges work as they should. Amazing. The radio is the only thing not working. All of the power windows work very well except for the driver's side rear door. The power seat works.
All of the brightwork on this car is 100% perfect. There is a lot of it, too. Every piece of trim is flawless with amazing shine. Pretty much like brand new. Not a ding or scratch in any of it. The only flaw in the chrome is a faded area on the rear bumper. $500 will get you new chrome on it by the bumper guys, based in Los Angeles. The bumpers are in perfect condition with no bends or dings. Just amazing. All four hubcaps are dead solid perfect without a single scrap, bend or scratch. All of the glass in the car is perfect. No cracks, no scratches, no bubbles.
The body on this car is near perfect. There was a retread that came apart at some point in the cars life and it put a small dent on the underside of the driver's side rear quarter panel, very minor. Other than that, there isn't a single ding in the body. I ran water over it and looked down the panels at an angle very carefully and the body is perfectly straight everywhere but in that one spot. The most amazing thing is, NO RUST!
The interior is 100% original and in great shape except for the front seat upholstery and carpet. Luckily, they make both for this car and they are not very expensive. You could leave the rest of the interior as-is and it would be a great interior. The chrome on the dash is perfect, like brand new. The paint on the dash is perfect. Not a scratch, chip or scuff. Inside the glove box is like new. The original manual is still in there.
The trunk is super clean! Look at the original paint under the trunk lid! Just beautiful.
It's hard to believe, but the engine compartment has never been cleaned and it doesn't need it. Incredibly clean all over for an unrestored car. The car has four new tires. There is a stack of reciepts an inch thick of all the work that has been done to the car. It totals over $27,000! This car only needs a paint job to be finished.
Clean, clear title.
No paypal deposit needed, but a wire transfer within 2 days of the end of the auction is required. No other method of payment is accepted.
I can recommend a shipper where you pay nothing until the car is in your driveway. I have used them no less than a dozen times and it has been a great experience every time.
Thank you and good luck!
