Sometimes that was a "dealer special" added to 1955 cars to get them off the lot. One member here has a 55 400 that apparently from the dealership had 56 trim added, mirror spotlights on both sides of the car, rain guards, etc. added to it to help it sell.

Interesting car with a 1955 front clip and 1956 side trim. Could it have been a very late test car or prototype of come sort, especially as it’s supposedly original and unmolested?
