Location: Southern Sweden - Sturkö island		Hi d500neil, I live in southern Sweden on a small island called Sturkö. Yes the old gal has a really nice figure still after all those years. Just finished the job of changing the floor carpets and there is not even a hole in the floor pans - some surface rust was found but I only had to brush it off and paint the floor. It was a Florida car from the beginning, so the crome was not so good (bumpers recromed) with a lot of pittings and webbings. I have changed some and will evetualluy recrome some parts.

Thanks TailFinGary, the Toga has the "delux" side trim, front fender ornaments and I have also bought the correct 3post passenger fender mirror. On the inside, she will get the 6way power seat, which I have bought and restored and the Mirrormatic will most probably also be bought and installed. She has now the rear speaker trims and mesh, which I got from E-bay and the rear defroster will also be mounted.

Then I wish to get the power windows as well, but you know that all options cost some money and time.

My Toga had the loop curl as original, and so has most of the Chryslers from 59-60 that I've seen (before restauration) - my bet is that the loop curl was original - I don't know when the cut pile entered on the marked.

Location: Southern Sweden - Sturkö island		I can very much guarantee you d500neil, that this is not a tropical island! We have now misty, rainy weather with low temperatures and the humidity cuts right to the very bones in my body.
In fact, its long away from Vasteras (in our small country, that is) the island is called Sturkö and there are only about 1700 habitants year around + tourists in the summer.

Location: Southern Sweden - Sturkö island		Started up the lady today

She shook and shuddered a little due to vaporized gasoline in the carburetor - then she caught and started to hum the fantastic gurgle of a V 8! After a long winter sleep, she woke up and came to life again.
The rear seat is now back in place and hopefully within short also the front seat will be in place

these are GREAT cars. today i took my girls original 150K (drivetrain never rebuild) mile 61 desoto coupe out of winter storage for a 60 mile test drive on the autobahn it runs so smooth 30 or 130 mph it drives and handles perfect. these are the greatest cars ever build!
you did a great job on the seat covers!

Location: bishop, ca		I would be afraid to plop my mASS onto that beautiful, virgin seat upholstery, and terrified to think about anyone
else doing similarly, on the pASSenger's side of the seat!

That's an awfully expansive area of contiguous upholstery, there.

Get thee to a nunnery (or, at least, to a supplier of clear plastic seat covering material) !

Location: Southern Sweden - Sturkö island		Neil, when I'm home, I'll always go out to the garage one last time every night. Sometimes I'll get in the car, just sitting there with the domelight or the instrument lights on, a Rock N' Roll tune oozing out of the speakers - and start to drift away. We call this "dry drivin'" here, but whatever you call it, I'm almost sure that you've done it to.

Location: Southern Sweden - Sturkö island		I took the Toga to the Car Inspection today - clean report, not even a comment (other than the waow's and ooh's from the inspection guys - they just stayed in the car and admired it)!
Here in Sweden we have to inspect only every 2 years - so now it's only to cruise away.

The brakes had a perfect even pull and the front wheel suspension had no freeplay or any other defects! I just made an overall check, greased up the all the joints and performed some maintenance.

As Sid would put it, "those cars where most probably the best cars ever built"

It's amazing how handable those cars is, on the highway I drove her up to 75 mph, but a steady 60 was ideal for good economy.

Is it original to the car ? - it looks like the 1959 version, as the 1960 and later version has an adjustment wheel rather than the sliding switch. I have been trying to scoop one of these at a reasonable price for 2 years !!

Location: Southern Sweden - Sturkö island		How true Ian, that is a 59 mirror that comes from a Plymouth Fury. I was lucky enough to find it at a very reasonable price ($350) in SWEDEN with a BRAND NEW mirror glass mounted. The mirror glass comes from a Volvo P 1800 and is cut down to the correct size (just a tiny bit missing in both the lower corners, since that mirror is not sufficiant in size) No my Saratoga did not have the Mirrormatic originally mounted. That is a real cool option (connect to the H terminal on the lightswitch). The only reasonable prices you'll find maybe with a bad spotted webbed mirror glass, but go ahead and buy them anyway - find a bigger mirror and have a glassworker cut it to size and polish away the silvercoat for the photocell. I'll keep an eye open for you and send yo a PM if I see one.

I had a mirror-matic at one time in a 1960 Dodge Polara that I used to own.  I bought it in the late 1970s for $100.00 and had the mirror re-silvered.  The mirror needed nothing else,  and continues to work today on that car for the present owner.

I wish I could get my wife to be comfortable driving these old cars around.
(It scares me that she'll just sell 'em off when I'm gone!)

We've discussed this before, Nathan. I thought you resolved that issue before tying the knot!

Anyway, that '60 rocks and I like the color.

That is really cool. Where's you find those options? It's hard to find them in the US. I have made a deal to buy a 60 NewYorker with a 413, power windows, fender ornaments, wheel well moldings and rockermouldings. It also has the remote control mirror and I am not sure which am radio it has. The guy is letting me make payments so I am not real excited about the car yet. But I will be.. A very interesting fact about the seller is that he went highschool with my late father.. I just call that a rediculious coincidence..

Location: NY & VT		Thanks for posting all the great pictures Sven! What a spectacular combination of car and scenery! I have a thing for the 4 door hardtops too, I think that roofline is an elegant complement to the sleek Forward Look styling!
