This is a rare 1957 Dodge Custom Royal Lancer D500 convertible. The Dodge is a real D500, 325 Hemi car.
It is 98%-99% complete and it needs total restoration.
There is rust in the floor and quarter panels. It needs interior, chrome, mechanical restoration, etc.
It is a very rare and very valuable car when done and it is worth restoring! We have restored 1957-62 Dodge, DeSoto, Chrysler and Plymouth cars at our huge restoration shop in Arizona since 1986, and we were planning on restoring this car also.
But our shop is chock full of restoration projects already so we'll see if there's a buyer on the car as is. If not we'll restore it in the future when we have time.
A restored 1957 Custom Royal Lancer convertible will bring $100,000-$150,000 depending on the quality of the restoration and I don't think they will be going down in value in the future!
We can also restore it for a customer, just let us know if that is of interest.
