Looks tasty. Seems like the engine is probably a 270 cu in 2 bbl "Super Red Ram" double-rocker, not a 325 cu in as has been stated.

Interesting remote spin-on oil filter set up. Probable electric fuel pump.

SV – blank – Sun Cap Visor (Windshield Upper Moulding) – Standard on ’55 Custom Royal (Optional on Coronet and Royal)
EW – blank – No Power Windows

That partial view of a 55 Dodge LA build cowl tag is frustrating.

Based on Mike Petersen's "1955 Dodge by the numbers" book, the body code for a D55-3 Custom Royal 2dr Lancer
should be 236. I can see the 2 but not the 3 or the 6.

I can see the 436 trim code which should be

436 = Black Jacquard silver dotted diamond weave fabric with White ribbed Cordagrain Bolsters

For Paint (PNT) all I can see s ?11. There was no n11 paint code

There was 568/569 which were Jewell Black, Cameo Red/Heather Rose and Sapphire White

And 571 which was Heather Rose, Sapphire White and Jewell Black.

So maybe what I am seeing is n71 ??

Frustrating
