I 'd go for a Champion Regal 4-door sedan .However,the side body trim molding is not original here.Ex factory, it was placed lower and only extended from the front door rearward.Here it is placed higher and also extends to the front covering the front fenders.On 1953 models side trim when present only covered the lower rear fenders and on 1955 models side rub rails were of different design.

Commander 57 ◊ 2010-02-17 21:12	Stewdi is correct. I would vote for Champion as I see no indicaton of a nameplate on the front of the rear fenders. On Commanders there was a nameplate in this position. (I see no indication of rear door window vents, otherwise it could be a President Deluxe.)
