A Rare 1958 Dodge Custom Royal D500 in Original Conditions with Continental Kit
Vehicle Details
ATTENTION SERIOUS COLLECTORS AND CLASSIC CAR DEALERS:
A Dodge Custom Royal D-500 – Matching Numbers, in Original Conditions with also Original Continental Kit is for your consideration
This is a rare & Hard to Find, 1958 Dodge Custom Royal two-door HardTop (LD3H-23), built (assembled) in Windsor, Ontario, Canada as part of the Spring Collection. Finished in its original two-tone paint (code PXP) with factory interior (trim code KBH), this car remains in highly original conditions.
Power comes from its original KD500 engine, a genuine D-500 HEMI V8 with a single 4-barrel carburetor, engine stamp KD500-13250, matching numbers. The D-500 was Dodge’s top performance package in 1958, with fewer than 500 units produced. It’s a solid car and original paint with no rust at all!
The car runs smooth as it should be, only the radio makes some noise “uhmn” sometimes. A couple of speakers were added situated in the backrest of the car.
This example is further distinguished as one of the very few fitted with the factory Continental Kit, adding to it RARITY and elegance.

I don’t have too much background history of the car, but according to the Doctor I bought the car, I’m the third owner of the car because it was sold originally in Arizona in March I958 as part of the Spring Collection and stayed there for almost 30 years ended in a museum until the Doctor bought it many years ago and move close to Pennsylvania.
I did my homework trying to find similar cars and years sold recently, and I found only three 1958 SOLD Custom Royals with D500 motor…
In April 2018 : a 1958 Convertible, Palm Beach: Barrett Jackson, April. $155,000
In 2019 : a 1958 Spring Special, Scottsdale: Barrett Jackson for $159,500
In 2019: a 1959 Glendale : Mecum, March $220,000 in 2019
My asking price is left than half of what’s these car has been sold, so this is One of the Kind Opportunity.
With originality, matching-numbers authenticity, and rare D-500 pedigree, this Dodge stands as an exceptional opportunity for collectors seeking a true piece of Mopar history., for all those reasons I’m announcing this car as a real UNMOLESTED CAR!
Buyer is responsible for transportation from Miami, Florida to….
