Here we are in Mom & Dad's front yard
Home on leave in June 1964
Before leaving for Ft Story, VA


And on the beach at Ft. Story, VA (my favorite)

How I wish I had that car back!!
Was truly my 1st real love
If only I hadn't screwed it up!!
But, hey man!, we were cool back in the day, right???



And a 56' D500 to boot! Yes man! You were most certainly the bomb! Noticed the 'customized' front grill as well...(no upper grill).

....That's a 1958 Imperial convertible, there, above.

Note how far forward the driver has moved the seat, to make abundant room for the back seat occupants.

Note the Sierra fin seating behind the Imperial in the lower shot.

Wonder if that was an advertised sales feature ?

That would be a 1956 Dodge Sierra wagon, with that mini-fin installed onto the 1955 wagon body, right?

The VIP in the parade convert looks like George C Scott in the profile view!?

Yeah, I was "Cool" back in the day.....

Stupid for sure.....but "cool" never the less!

I always thought a "tube" grill would look good on that car and/or a pair of
turn sigs like those on the, gulp, GTO's of the day.

Got some good color shots of the custom diamond pleated interior somwhere
if anyone would like to see 'em

UuuhhhhH gosh, I guess that hurts. Look at the right hand side spoke of the steering wheel. I hope nobody was injured seriously.

Happy Motoring!

Why is there a DeSoto Firesweep in the last production line photo behind the Plymouth ?

Weren't these built miles apart ? Or is this the L.A. factory ?

Wow! Someone really knew how to compose a dramatic photo. Real Art in action.

Wonder if it was intentionally posed ? Charles Phoenix would be proud. Very cool.

If that had a 58 behind it, I'd flip out !!!

Weren't these built miles apart ? Or is this the L.A. factory ?


If it is the Lynch Road plant in Detroit, that would be a DeSoto Diplomat for an export market. The Plymouth plant also built Dodge Kingsway models for export markets, such as Mexico, Cuba and Hawaii. The very first Plodge, the four cylinder 1932 Dodge DM, based on the Plymouth PB, was built at Lynch Road.
