Could be a nice deal or... my scam alert meter is on high. If it's legit then you might be getting a pretty nice car for 8K.

1958 Desoto sportsman sedan great solid car runs nice drives nice light rust on lower quarters miner rockers good lower doors nice interior excellent last of this huge engine firedome was in storage since 1971

I have a lot of pics of this car when it was owned by someone else, and sold to this seller for $4K in 2009. I believe the car/seller is legitimate. It needed some work in 2009, but I don't know what's been done sine then. It certainly IS a good buy, but wasn't in storage since 1971 as stated...

Probably just me being overly cynical. Zero feedback seller, listed in antiques, old pictures... like Ed said probably legit. Just an inexperienced ebay seller perhaps.

that's a Desoto hardtop for a steal... Of course its off to Sweden, they aren't stupid enough to let that car finish auction. And a long wheelbase car at that.

That's an awesome car for 8k... fricking stole it.

it isn't a sedan, it's a 4 dr hardtop (Sportsman)... there is a difference.
Pretty sure Arne is a member here.

You know I get it. Almost everyone but us really doesn't know or doesn't care about the difference between a 1958 DeSoto and a 1957 DeSoto. But seriously, how hard is it to google "1958 DeSoto" and see that they all have hockey sticks on 'em??? This one don't. Sheesh.

wondering why people who think they have identified a stone cold swipe feel the need to announce it, rather than just buy it. they also are quick to point out if a car is overpriced. they never seem to pull the trigger on the steals, they just let us all know what everything is worth (according to them). I think if they actually knew, they would own a few more cars. such is the way of the "innerweb"

58 wedge, didn't mean you. I was referring to the non buyers who constantly "appraise" every vehicle they see listed, but never seem to get one bought.
