Up for sale is our 1936 DeSoto Airflow S2. This car was purchased from a collector in Oregon in March of 2012. We have acquired another car and need to sell this one. Since its acquisition, considerable work has been done toward making the car a solid driver. This is one of 4,790 DeSoto Airflows made in 1936, of which very few remain, making this a very rare car for any era. This is a great driving car in good servicable condition, which would make a great restoration or even a hot rod, mild or wild. Prospective buyers are encouraged to examine the car in person or through a qualified agent.
