Description

1957 DeSoto, Fireflight convertible one of 1,151 ever produced. This car is very rare, to find one in this condition is very uncommon. This convertible is a real barn find. I have owned the car for over 20+ years, always garaged kept. To my knowledge the car is all original except for a paint job, which was done before I took ownership. The car is all white, with a tan and beige interior. A basic ’57 DeSoto equipped with basic options. This is a plain Jane 1957 DeS oto, car is equipped with power steering, Automatic Push button Torqueflite transmission, AM Radio, heater, and duel exhaust.

At the time this car was used as a family transport vehicle, 341ci hemi motor/ 295hp with a four barrel carb. The engine is frozen, it does not turn over. The windshield is cracked. The car comes with all of the original chrome and stainless along with a four door parts car.

The car is very solid, except for a few holes on the floor and the trunk kick up area has some rust. This is visible in the photos. This is not a major issue for any professional body shop.

Car has a clean New Jersey Title, however; the parts car does not have a title. If interested please visit the car
