Robert Whitman posted a link that shows a 1960 (export) Desoto Diplomat
wagon...essentially a 60 Dodge Seneca/Phoenix wagon with altered side trim.
Thank you Robert, for that. Now I guess we need Marko to describe to us
statesiders what a 1961 Desoto Diplomat wagon looks like..(although we can
safely assume it will be a 61 Dodge with altered side trim) I still would
like to see it, however!
