Location: Alaska		It's a beautiful car at a very good price. IMHO the red on the outside does not match the interior, especially the light blue dash, i would change that.

Besides the exterior color, the interior upholstery is incorrect too. According to the door cards, it looks like 1960 Chrysler Windsor, but the seat inserts pattern is wrong. The original typical 1960 DeSoto Adventurer Interior should be appearing like on the bottom picture.

Location: Branson, MO		The color combination leaves a lot to be desired. Leave out the red (engine components included) and the light blue dash. Could possibly be a Canadian build as they used a mixture of DeSoto and
Chrysler interiors. 15" wheels are a plus in my opinion.

Not worth the asking price but since there is a "best offer" available, means there is room for negotiation.

**Definitely not a Canadian build**. The Canadian sedans didn't have the large rear window, and the upholstery in them was lifted out of a 60 Saratoga.
This car is also missing the Adventurer specific rocker panel an wheel opening stainless steel moldings. However, the large rear window does indicate that it
is a US built Adventurer, because the Fireflites all had the small back window. Someone probably lifted the seats and door panels out of a Windsor and
used them in this car, possibly the originals were too far gone and these were in better shape, though the seat fabric isn't original Windsor fabric.

The VIN is 7203117404 as stated by seller, where:

7 = DeSoto
2 = Adventurer
0 = 1960
3 = Jefferson Detroit Michigan Assembly Plant

It is definitely non Canadian built car...
