I though I had found the answer for this one at http://www.allpar.com/world/plymouth.html Well the answer is indeed in that link you provide, see the chart near the bottom of the page with model equivalents for US / Export and Canadian production cars. Basically, here's the rundown for 1957-1959 USA --------------------------- Dodge export ------------------------------------------- Dodge Canada Plymouth Plaza ------------- Kingsway (n/a in 1959) -------------------------------- Crusader (n/a in 1959) Plymouth Savoy ------------ Kingsway Deluxe (Kingsway in 1959) ---------------- Regent Plymouth Belvedere ------- Kingsway Custom (Kingsway Deluxe in 1959) ------ Mayfair Plymouth Fury (1959) ----- Kingsway Custom ---------------------------------------- Viscount (1959-only model) | ||

Posts: 19146 Location: bishop, ca | That car is a prototype; duh...but, in a large-brochure photograph of it, with its driver's door open, you can see where it does not have a VIN tag on its door hinge pillar. Neat.... | ||

Expert Posts: 1363 Location: Apeldoorn, Netherlands | To me, this DeSoto looks very much like an Adventurer – amoung others, because of the goldish hub caps –, but I'm not sure. Anybody? (DeSoto ForwardLook postcards) & (Chrysler ForwardLook postcards) | ||

There's one more FL car on the pic, I think, as the pale blue or white car, right next to the restaurant neon sign, on the extreme right of the card looks like a 1960 Dodge Dart 2dr hardtop. | ||

Expert Posts: 3480 Location: Montreal, Canada | Really cool pic once again, Jim! Just to the right of the '58 Plymouth is a '58 Chrysler New Yorker. I thought it was a convertible at first, but I think I see the rear door handle in between the motel sign' posts, so I guess it's a four door hardtop. Edited by soiouz 2010-11-15 11:17 AM | ||
