Looks great...:thumbsup: My old 70 Sport Fury was a factory V02 - two-tone car...FP6 with a EW1 painted roof.

Man am I tempted to buy this car...I'm looking to buy another car and have my heart set on a 71 Superbee but this one is tugging at me pretty hard. :BangHead:

Clicked on the link thinking I'd see a Gen1 392 Hemi....Nope was pleasantly surprised at what I saw, now that is a very cool sleeper for sure!!:thumbsup:

It is a 6V negative ground system? I had a 48 Desoto and it was a 6V positive ground system, I rewired the entire car from front to back with a universal 12V system...what a PITA, would not want to do that again! I had to use a couple voltage drop sinks for the blower motor on the heater and...

I had a 48 Desoto 2dr Sedan and it was a 6V positive ground system....sheesh! I tore out the wiring and completely rewired the entire car to a 12V negative ground system....that was a big job on a simple car, and don't think I'd want to rewire anything newer then that. ;)

now that's a pissed off car....

That looks really clean!

I'm just up North from you in PG and I really love your car and would be tempted to purchase, but the $100K spent on building my new shop means I am not allowed any more major purchases...at least not for a few years.:(

I still remember the first time seeing one of these cars, I was working my summer job in high school....probably around 1988-89 or so and I was mowing lawns. I saw one of these sitting outside a town house complex, I distinctly remember the spare tire in the trunk lid, cool rocket type...

And the 8.25" rears got the 2.71, or a 3.21 gear set.

Having restored and owned a 68 Coronet convertible I did discover i am not a convertible guy....solid steel roof over my head thank you very much. ;) That is a beautiful long roof that is for sure, love the swing out drivers seat...so cool!!

or maybe a 58 Desoto Sportsman?

Think your Dad's old Desoto may have been a 57 Desoto Firesweep..although I can't make out the large eyebrow chrome on the front headlights.

I would grab all the fury roof and any other parts you think you might need now before those parts either disappear or the car gets crushed. I think that would be a super cool mod though!!

Good eye....I think those are only 4 hole valve covers, you can see the ends of them in the pic of the six pack carb and air cleaner and I can't make out any bolt holes. :(

That was a beauty of a car...I would be proud to own one like it!

Amazing cars! When i was looking for my 46-48 Desoto 2dr Sedan I eventually found one from a guy in Southern Cali, he had been looking for a 46-48 Desoto convertible to restore...super rare...and had to buy 5 - 46-48 Desoto cars to get the one convertible in the lot. And then had to...

A 58 300D with fuel injection, WOW.....I thought the 58 Desoto Adventurer vert, was the only one to survive with the original injection system. Info and pics in this thread.... Viewing a thread - 1958 DeSoto Electrojector - First Electronic Fuel Injection?

I too have hauled many a vehicle up onto trailers with nothing more then a few lengths of chain, and a 2 ton chain come-a-long. Might be slow, but ALWAYS gets the vehicle up and on the trailer. ;) This is my most recent loading secession....

Wow that looks really nice! Sure looks plain without all that stainless and trim. ;)
