THat weather worn  paint  is a red flag.   I'm thinking 157K, and then it was parked?  James

This trailer queen was probably sitting in a junkyard since 1976.

Yes that is too bad.  I know this seller or at least I know his family.  I stopped and looked at some of his Dad's cars about 21 years ago.  We communicated by Facebook messenger to confirm that.

In that part of Illinois there are still a fair amount of these cars tucked in garages, farms, etc.  It looks like it was picked up from a residence.   The family has a pole barn they put these in. 

My curiosity is with the color.  Was that that "Salmon" color of 1957?   I really like that on the 1956 Buick Roadmasters, especially with black accent and all that chrome.  Sadly, I can't see anyone resurrecting this car but just the fact of what it was color wise is interesting to me.

Mountain Laurel code 46 would be my guess.
