I posted this in the Southeast Region, BUT i have know been in contact with the Owner ,So need a Quicker Response, That,s why i have now posted it here as less people check the region forums..

Basically does Anyone know of the 58 Desoto and Seen it recently, Some of the PICs look Very Familiar, But i don,t think i posted it in the Ebay Forum , BUT i may have seen it on Ebay Before...... The Owner has sent me some Extra Pic,s .... But they are Not very good Quality.. Here are the PIC,s listed in the Auction Though...

It is a 58 Fireflite with a 361 3-speed Auto..

If you can get me a phone number or location, I have a friend in St Cloud who happens to also be a DeSoto owner who may be able to help... PM me if you don't want to post it.

That looks exactly like the one "phins" here has/had.

Remember? He picked this one up with the '58 Firesweep ragtop he dug out of a barn - "phins", if memory serves, is indeed a Floridian and was looking to get rid of that '58 Fireflite sedan after he'd contemplated using her as a driver.

EDit: he lives in Bradenton, Florida.

I think you are 100% Correct.. The Details are Identical and the Sellers name is also PAUL and Location is Correct also . Strange when i just mentioned this Website to him,he has gone Quite,,, Although he is Possibly logging in right now to find this Thread and Read what i have asked..

..............................................................................................................................................................................................


EDIT... Just clicked on Pauls Profile, AND it IS the same person as the Email Address is the Same........................................................

Yeah, it's Garry Mackner's - he told me a week or 2 ago that he'd sold it to finish his barn find '58 'Sweep 'vert... he's buying & swapping some trim for the 'vert from me... I guess the new buyer is an eBay flipper. Hope it went to a good home...
