I think the rear end of it was definitely later of the production line than the front end

I sent the seller this article https://www.curbsideclassic.com/automotive-histories/curbside-unicor...
the price went from $11000 to $14000 and he is now looking for Dean Mullinax who is involved in looking for the last DeSoto |

This will be very interesting if indeed this is the last DeSoto. |

I think not. I personally like the lines in comparison to the other ‘62 Chrysler Corporation models that were offered-so very different from the rest yet bold in appearance. My opinion of course.
It would be interesting to see how successful it was if given the chance.
