Vehicle Detail

This fabulous classic comes finished in code correct Dublin Green with a Fern Green top over an impeccable burgundy cloth interior. For the savvy collector and for the most dedicated Desoto enthusiast, this amazing car is about as fine an example as one is likely to find anywhere! Powered by its original 276.1 CID (4.1 Liter) in line 6 cylinder engine (1951 and 1952 models received this upgraded engine), this Desoto Custom starts quickly and reliably and runs and drives perfectly. Sporting newer wide white wall tires, a fantastically clean and detailed interior, beautiful original engine compartment, detailed trunk with spare tire, a rust free frame and body, rare optional "Semi-Automatic" transmission on the column that works as it should, working heater, working clock, and more, this rare show quality automobile will stand out at any car event! Having been in the classic car business for almost 10 years, I have seen many early 50s sedans in various makes and models and this is definitely one of the cleanest I have ever seen, especially at such an entry level price point. All chrome is bright and shinny, body is amazingly straight and is wearing a very nice older paint job that shows very well (although is not perfect). The interior is gorgeous and without any issues. One good look and drive of this classic and it becomes quickly obvious that it was very well cared for and spent most of its time in dry climate as there is no evidence of rust repairs or issues, even the undercarriage is nicely detailed! I have posted several photos in the Ebay listing but I have many more that I can email to SERIOUS potential buyers, feel free to contact me via email or phone, 314-368-4564. Vehicle is also available for personal or third party inspection by appointment. I also have several good contacts for overseas shipping and am glad to assist with any or all international transport arrangements. BUYER is responsible for any and all shipping costs BUT I am happy to make arrangements for you. BUY WITH CONFIDENCE, this is a fabulous car! I am a long time Ebay seller with hundreds of vehicle transactions and will do all I can to facilitate a fast easy transaction. ALL REASONABLE OFFERS WILL BE CONSIDERED!
