The hood looks like its from a 740 - doors instead of louvres on the side and a small "spear point" at the front of the swage line. The 740 has a 140.5" wheelbase.
The curved swage line across the rear of the body is 7th series not 6th. Custom and Standard eights are the same in this area.
With 127.5 inch wheelbase an engine number corresponding to 6th Series standard eight, a 740 custom eight hood and remains of a 7th series body I do not not know WTH it is!
In Australia we would call it a "bitsa"
The transmission looks to be Packard but has a larger top cover than that on my standard eight. Could be from the larger custom eight.
