Fluid Drive and Tip-Toe shift transmission Historical Note: 107,174 Desoto’s were produced in 1949, Making DeSoto 13th in U.S. Auto production in that year.This DeSoto drives out good, Just check out our driving videoWe did a tune up so this car starts easily as well as runs smoothlyAll gages except fuel seem to be workingFactory Radio and Horn do not work.Speedometer and odometer are workingVacuum windshield wipers work great! (That is rare on one of these cars).Please Note This Updated Information: Since I did the driving video I have learned more about the transmission and the fluid drive. The Fluid drive is kind of a cross between a manual shift clutch and an automatic transmission torque converter. And, this transmission is actuall a 4 speed manual shift on the steering column. I was able to drive it fine thru trial and error but thanks to a local individual who saw the video and gave me information on how the car is supposed to be shifted, I am looking forward to taking it out again and driving it with this new knowledge. This car has a solid straight body with no apparent rust problems. The only significant flaw I see is where the body lead is broken out at the trunk lid corner - close up photo included.The cloth interior is clean and in excellent condition.The wood tone finished metal trim is excellent – looks like real wood.
