Location: Colorado Springs, Colorado | Does anybody have good pictures of the code 516 interior? i found a tiny bit of the original fabric in the car on the a-pillar, but i'd like to see the how the rest of the seats were done up.
Thanks! |

Location: So. Cal | Thanks to Rosy, for posting all the fabrics from the '57 Desoto Fabric book, here is your trim code 516. Also, both Bill (baker53) and Rosy's (FIN ME) Firesweeps have this same interior so you can check out their threads.

Location: New Castle PA | Rosy's restoration makes hers one of the absolute nicest '57s around. Lest you be confused, though, her front seats use the correct material, and she has gone to great lengths to make it look "right", but the swivel seats are from a '59, I believe. The first picture above is the "normal" seat layout. There are more pics on my 1957 DeSoto website of code 516 examples. |
