Vehicle Description
This Fireflite Sportsman has the original 276ci HEMI V8 engine and automatic transmission with the shift linkage on the dashboard. It's equipped with power steering, power brakes, original keys and even the radio works. Finished in Avon Blue and Surf White, it features a matching two-tone interior. With the exception of the paint and upholstery touch-up everything on this Virgil Exner forward-look design is stock and original including the glass and chrome. The original owner owned it from 1955 to 1990 (35 years) and insisted that it was garaged in a climate-controlled carriage house. The second owner owned it from 1990 to 2015 (25 years) and kept it parked in his personal airplane hangar or at his large collector garage located at his private estate. This Desoto drives as nice as it looks.
