Just to add to Terry's post, AFAIK all '55 Windsors
had the 301 Spitfire poly. This replaced the 250-ci
flathead Six used in '54 and earlier Windsors. Pretty
sure all US '56-'58 Windsors (and '57-'58 Saratogas)
also had poly V8s. Not sure what size the domestic '56
Windsor had although 331 seems possible in light of
the '57-'58 having 354s. Canadian '56 Windsors shared
the 318-poly-related 303 with the '56 Fury and
Canadian '56 Dodge Custom Royal.
My guess is that $9500 would be pushing the envelope
for a Nassau in show condition, let alone #3.
