1948 DeSoto Custom 1. Beautifully restored at some point in its
life and has had little use since. 2. The flathead 6 cylinder purrs
like a kitten with an intact appropriately quiet exhaust system.
The carburetor was just rebuilt and a new fuel pump installed. 3.
The interior was exquisitely done very clearly from a high quality
custom car experienced upholstery genius. The headliner is quite
notable and done very nicely with a very distinct attention to
detail and quality. All the doors and door handles work as they
should and all the windows work as they should however the rear
driver's passenger window feels like it needs to be lubricated I
did not force it but it is connected and does move a little bit up
and down but rather than force it somebody needs to take the door
panel off and lubricate the mechanism. 4. The suicide doors are
cool cool cool and it has all new door seals etc. 5. There is some
rust on the front bumper pads and also the rear. Some re-chroming
recommended on a few pieces where the chrome has started to rust
all in all it is in excellent condition. Please take note of all
the pictures. 6. It needs a glove box door. Two pieces of chrome
trim on the rear fenders seem to be missing. Also it looks like on
the trunk there might be some sort of a logo or something that
might be missing there. 7. We are working on the brake system and
are replacing parts as necessary. 8. This is an incredible barn
find that is 95% complete and certainly a perfect mini project for
a connoisseur who understands and appreciates the quality and value
of this vintage machine. Please Note The Following **Vehicle
