Board Moderator & Exner Expert 10K+ Posts: 13054 Location: Southern Sweden - Sturkö island | That's good Jari, we cabnnot expect that everyone has good taste and appreciates the FL-cars The DeSoto Diplomat '60 is for sure a very rare bird - even if I have seen that car before in pictures from FinLand - it is the only one I have ever seen | ||

Expert 5K+ Posts: 8444 Location: Perth Australia | And like all 60 dodge dart owners (I think), my eyes went straight to the grill looking for the holy grail One thats not bent or broken I didnt notice the desoto lettering at first Those grills must just bend in the wind, so rare to see one thats not bent and twisted | ||

Veteran Posts: 104 Location: FIN land | This blue and white '60 Diplomat was customized in Finland between late seventies to mid eighties, it is a 4 door sedan with '59 Kingsway coupe roof, '60 Chrysler doors and quarterpanels are combination of '59 coupe and '60 sedan parts. -A Very nice example of what can be done when there's enough will...there's a way. (I personally find this kind of well performed modifications more appealing than "boring" restorations back to stock). Edited by budweiser 2015-04-29 11:35 PM | ||

They got me Now when I look the A-pillar vent window frame it looks weird. Like it has been modified from the sedan | ||

Veteran Posts: 104 Location: FIN land | It may be criminal to even think about this but someone might say the older roof looks even better than the original one...??? -Original C-pillars and rear window are not the smoothest ones we´ve seen in FL:s. | ||
