Expert Posts: 1267 Location: San Antonio TX | Looks fantastic! Was repainted back in 91, and still looks very nice. Seems as though the owner loved the vechicle and took good care of it. Seller claims it was manufactured the day Chrysler announced the closing of Desoto. https://lasvegas.craigslist.org/cto/d/1961-desoto-hardtop/6472387936.html | ||

I'm sure someone will come along in a couple decades and reverse the modifications. The rarer these cars get, the more incentive people have to revert crazy customs back to their original look. | ||

I know, I'm just trying to be optimistic about it | ||
