A fellow enthusiast in Wisconsin is selling his. If interested, reply and I will send you his contact information. I'm hoping he will join the forums to get more information on this truly rare and wonderful car. From the seller:
This is an exceptionally rare classic—one of the most sought-after DeSoto models ever produced. The 1958 Firesweep Convertible Spring Edition was a limited-production vehicle, making surviving examples extremely scarce today. This car is complete and includes the factory L-350 V8 engine (serial #37964) and intake manifold (#1737708), with VIN LS111219 confirming its pedigree. It has not run or been driven in over 40 years and is not running or drivable, requiring a full restoration. Nothing is missing, making it an excellent candidate for a high-value restoration project. Asking $40,000. Serious inquiries only. ]]> http://forwardlook.net/forums/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=79164 Hello, sad news, my best frriend Aivar Legines, passed on January 13th 2024.
His widow wishes to sell 2 of his cars.
The first is a 1958 Plymouth Savoy with all chevy running gear.
350 chevy engine and it think either a turbo 400 tranny.
The body is probaby the straightest you'll ever see on a 58 Plymouth.
The paint is black & in great shape (show quality).Car is in perfect mechanical; condition.
If interested post here or email me and I'll put upp pictures.
I do have videos on youtube of the car cruising.
OK, I'll do a separate post on the snd car for sale.
Gary]]> http://forwardlook.net/forums/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=80436 This is a complete car minus a couple things that I can see, but could be worth driving for someone who wants a patina car, and to get in to one of these and drive as is. The back story:
This car spent its life in NY with one family. I got it from the grandson and being from NY I have no title. Most of the time it was in a barn just sitting. It must have been a dirt floor barn and as a result, the frame has some rust-through spots. Whether any of it needs patching, I don’t know, it’s possible that it’s not a structural issue but I don’t have experience in this area. Glass is all there and I see no cracks. Interior looks to be somewhat decent, though the headliner is trashed. Floors and trunk have some holes. This car was a rescue, I hauled it from NY to VA to try and pass it on to someone who might want to get it running and drive it. I have other projects…
Paint code C, Jamaican Blue. Two tone blue interior. Manual crank windows. I removed the plugs and put transmission oil in the cylinders but so far it doesn’t want to start moving with a strap wrench on the crank pulley. I don’t think I can change my jpeg iPhone photos to jpg so probably can’t post photos here… car looks cool and actually presentable in terms of a patina driver; it is currently under a carport with a cover to try and keep it clean and dry. $1500. I’ll see if I can get a picture attached. Car does roll. Has original aluminum key.]]> http://forwardlook.net/forums/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=80508 west coast classics.com

Posting for my father who is thinning out his collection and projects. The car is located in Penticton, British Columbia, Canada.

1955 Dodge Coronet 2 door hardtop. The car is an original tri tone car - yellow black and white. It was a 270 poly head engine with standard 3 speed transmission.

My father located and completely rebuilt a 1955 270 hemi engine for the car which is now in the car mated to the standard transmission and runs off of a jerry can. The engine was bored, new pistons fitted, heads were gone through etc., it was properly rebuilt. A front disc brake kit has been installed, also included with the car is a hot heads adapter to mate the hemi to a 727 torqueflite.

The car has some small rust areas, but is completely repairable. My father has bought rust free sheet metal for over the rear wheels, it is ready to weld in.

The car was partial disassembled several years ago but should be all there. There are duplicates of most of the trim, grills and emblems including royal lancer trim. Included is an extra set of doors and trunk lid, maybe a spare hood? There is a new carpet kit and headliner to install. I beleive but am not 100% certain that there is a factory power steering setup that goes with it.

The car will need to have the front end sheet metal re installed, to be re wired, to have some rust repair, paint etc. I am fairly certain that all glass is good. I do believe there is current BC registration and title but you will need to confirm all details.

No, you cant drive it home but it is a fantastic project. I will post up some pictures in the next few days. $7,500.00 Canadian.

Please pm me if you are interested or want more details.]]> http://forwardlook.net/forums/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=77948 Even though the car is not mine I have extensive knowledge on the condition, parts and all other details including 100's of pictures.

If I didn't already have way too many projects then this Dodge would be in my barn.

The convertible is part of a "package deal" that includes the following:

• 1960 Dodge Phoenix convertible – Project
• 1960 Dodge Phoenix 4-door – Parts car
• Dodge Custom 880 Convertible – Rear clip with ALL convertible specific parts: top brace, rear wheel inner wheelhouses, lower rockers, rear wheelwell lip, convertible top structure / bracing

$2800.00 for ALL the above "package deal"
PLUS included are many boxes of used original parts removed from both cars.
The owner would prefer to sell ALL of the cars and parts as a package deal. If someone is ONLY interested in the Phoenix convertible the price is still $2800.


The 1960 Dodge Phoenix convertible is a rolling shell - Needs Total restoration
Both the VIN and Fender tags on the car.
Body code "535" on fender tag is a real convertible.
The original paint color is “T” which is Tan metallic with matching beige / tan interior

NO Title Sold with Bill of Sale
Originally a 318 with torqueflite auto trans - No engine but trans is still in the car.

There is another 318 poly engine in the 4-door parts car.
The 4-door parts car has a title. Also good front fenders, floors, rockers and rear quarters to use for repair panels.
All of the hard to find convertible windshield moldings, power top mechanism front & rear quarter glass are with the car.


Because of the picture size limitation on the forum only posting a few. I can provide more information and pictures showing details of both cars and the parts.

Serious interested buyers send me a PM or email SpaceWagon@zoominternet.net

In addition I have many 1960 Dodge NOS parts available that would offer to the buyer. The price of those parts would depend on what / which parts are wanted for the car.

I've owned it since 2019, it was off the road since 1976. I have replaced or rebuilt just about everything mechanical. Engine, trans, rear axle, front and rear suspensions. Car is very reliable, I have twice driven it over 700 miles round trip. Surprising good on gas, it has an AX15 5 speed manual in it. I have put about 9,000 miles on it since 2021. I have not touched the body, it will need floor work but they have been good enough for daily driving, I have even hauled a ford flathead v8 in the back. I have a very nice front driver fender from Big M and tons of spare parts. Details of the build in the thread below, for now I have it only advertised here. I have no idea what a car like this is worth, I will start by asking $8,750. Send me a PM if interested and then we can talk directly. Below are some of the repair highlights, again the details are in the link

Refreshed engine (honed, new rings and bearings, port matched intake, heads and exhaust manifolds)
Rebuilt AX15 transmission
New flywheel, clutch, pressure plate, pilot bearing, clutch fork, master and slave cylinders (hydraulic with external slave, easy to replace)
New drive shaft and u-joints
4 wheel disc brakes from AAJ, new master cylinder, stainless steel lines (car stops excellent)
All new wheel bearings and seals
New rear leaf springs, bushings, shocks
New front shocks, bushings, ball joints
New center link
New fuel tank, copper-nickel lines, AN return line
Factory 4 barrel intake with 500 cfm Edelbrock
New dual exhaust

Everything works other than the heat selector, the plastic vacuum connector is crumbled. Car does put out heat though and the fan works, you just can't redirect where the heat goes.

]]> http://forwardlook.net/forums/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=80392 Very original car apart from the colors and wheels. 20mls on the clock after complete rebuild.
Lots of upgrades, built to be a daily driver and technically better than new! Hundreds of photos of the full resto/rebuild.
Located in the Netherlands. Anyone interested can pm me for more info.

http://www.forwardlook.net/forums/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=80366&posts=6&start=1]]> http://forwardlook.net/forums/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=80367 http://forwardlook.net/forums/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=80314 The car is very solid with the exception of a 1 1/2” rust hole in the drivers floor, and the trunk floor which is fairly rotten as usual from an old failed trunk seal.
All of the trim is either on or in the car with the exception of the piece that goes on the passenger fender.
The trunk latch and lock is missing as they were drilled out and wrecked a long time ago. This car came out of an estate sale in western Canada and is located in Alberta.
The car has its original 383, transmission, rear axle, etc and is very untouched. The 383 is stuck but I’m currently soaking the cylinders to free it up and perhaps try and get it running.
An excellent starting point for a restoration of a desireable forwarded look car.

$4500 Canadian obo

Comes with an extra set of torsion bars (in trunk) that came out of a station wagon, in case you want to drop a big-block in it. Also comes with a lower '58 grill, shown in pic hanging off the bumper to illustrate, but it's not mounted to the car so it's in the trunk also.
On the back seat there's a tote with the power brake canister, extra power brake bellows booster in better shape than the one that's on the car. The dash control switches for headlights, wipers, fan, ignition are either hanging by their wires, or in a plastic zip-lock baggie in the small box on the back seat. The knobs are all there (also in the baggie), as I started to polish them up with some fine steel wool. No radio, glove box missing...... the pics tell the rest. I can gladly take more if you want to see something specific. Also, the left front tire goes flat after 3 days. Car rolls fine, brakes not working.

I applied for and will have a Georgia title sent to me in a couple weeks from today (4/21/2025). $11K for it. I hope to see it go to someone who can give her the TLC she needs. No trades, as I am downsizing. Thanks Guys!
