1954 Desoto 4-Door Sedan
Note that I have listed every defect that I can find; I believe it’s better for you to see the flaws before you come here to see the car in person. I’m letting the positive aspects speak more for themselves, in the photos.

This is a complete, straight car ready to restore. Hemi Firedome 8 (#140927S-2) engine. Grill is beautiful; adjoining sides with minor pitting. All interior chrome and gauges very nice. The steering wheel is cracked, but the emblem in the center is in great shape. Most of the glass is good except the passenger rear, and a crack in the windshield. The seats need replaced.
Chrome: Most of the chrome is shiny and clear. Missing one strip on the driver’s side. The chrome over the headlamps is pitted and worn on top. The strip above the passenger rocker panel is bent and creased, and below the windshield has multiple dings.
Most panels have no dents or dings (two pop-out marks on passenger side of roof; a couple of dings on the trunk.) Bondo on passenger quarter panel. The car does not appear to have ever been in an accident. The radiator support and the quarter panel still carry the original VIN number, indicating that they have never been replaced. The panels appear to be all original and fit well together, but there is substantial rust. The floor pan shows surface rust; the rocker panels and quarter panels are rusted through. Front fenders are in better condition but show surface rust.
This car ran as of January 2012.
Please see photos for best representation of condition.
