Opportunity to acquire a beautiful classic American car with wild looks!

Sought after and one of the most extreme examples of the Forward Look of the late 1950's styling.

1959 De Soto Firesweep

From Mopar Chrysler Plymouth stable with 361 cubic inch V8 engine and push button torqueflight transmission.

Dodge shell and chassis with DeSoto bumper, signature tail fins and grille. Bodywork all original and requiring restoration. Rust around edges, worst spots rear window deck and rear quarter panels - see pictures. Boot floor needs repair.

All trim present except one rear deck/rear screen lower corner. Original hubcaps and wing mirrors come with car but are not pictured (sorry!) All original glass present with no cracks or fogging. Original interior - front seat frayed, headliner good - see pictures which form part of the description.

I noticed in the first 2 PICs there is a 60 Plymouth also in the Garage, I am gonna contact him and ask what other FLs he has, The desoto wants too much work for the time i can spare at this time..

Update ..

Got a reply from the Owner......

The Owner is selling the 59 Desoto to finance the restoration of the 60 Fury as mentioned above, So the 60 Plymouth isnt for sale.. He doesnt have any other FLs ..
