Vehicle Description
This beautiful DeSoto club coupe is about 95 percent original. It
began as virtually a rust-free car with the body professionally
restored and painted (10-12/2015) in Regal Blue Metallic. The
original color was black and the interior upholstery is a deep Navy
blue ribbed velour, with matching door panels, and coordinating
headliner and cut pile carpet. This car was shown in the Lake
George Nationals, September 7-10 2017, along with its' "twin"
DeSoto 4-door sedan.
The car features the Chrysler 237 cid L-Head engine and 3-speed
Fluid Drive transmission and cruises easily at highway speeds. This
car provides an unusually comfortable ride and the rear seat
passengers can easily relax with both arm and footrests while
cruising down the road. The engine, components and bay are all
detailed as original - with exception of newer the wiring. All
gauges, lights and wipers are in good working order.
All chrome and stainless moldings are either original or NOS, as
are all bezels, hood ornament and emblems. It has four brand new
whitewall tires and a brand new battery. The interior garnish
moldings have been repainted in original Crystal Gray Metallic, and
the dash is a coordinating blue.
It comes with a MOPAR 808 radio and escutcheon (uninstalled), a
restored steering wheel, horn ring, a DeSoto horn button, as well
as many other NOS parts such as a set of brake shoes, emergency
brake drum, temperature, amp and gas gauges, ignition switch
(uninstalled) keyed alike to door locks, original bumper jack,
color matched fender skirts and a CASCO spinner knob.
