"Bil i mycket fint skick. Har tidigare varit dragbilen åt SMV-husvagnen som säljs separat. Ett mäktigt ekipage!"

Description

Old repaint in original hue. A very nice work indeed. Some touch-ups have been made. The interior is almost as new with only slight wear on the door handles. New mat. Clean and tidy engine room. Little driven car is in true original condition. This car has been a part of Jännaholm car collection for many years and has recently been started. Engine and gearbox work smoothly.
Contemporary radio and protective plastic cover on seats are included, as well as a user manual and the latest inspection protocol from 1998.
Firedome never became a bestseller because of the rumor that Crysler intended to put down DeSoto.

Facts about the model

I mitten av 1950-talet tillhörde Firedome DeSotos premiumbilar men degraderades till mellanklass när man presenterade den nya generationen 1957. Som ett sätt att locka köpare satsade DeSoto på mesta möjliga valmöjligheter med ett närmast oändligt antal färgkombinationer att välja bland. Firedome blev dock aldrig någon storsäljare eftersom ryktet nått att Chrysler var på väg att fasa ut märket.
Under huven satt en 361 kubiktum stor V8 och Firedome fanns som tvådörrars coupé, fyrdörrars sedan, fyrdörrars kombi och som cabriolet.
