Parting out a rusty 1958 Desoto Firedome 4dr ht. No front bumper, I used that on my own car. PM or reply with needs. I'll try to post up a few pics.

Hi, I'm looking for a '58 Desoto air cleaner like the one pictured below. Please note, I do not own this photo and found it on the web. Thanks, Shawn

I have a friend looking for the upper and lower stainless steel door moldings for the front and rear passenger side doors. Are these available?

Yes, all 4 pieces of quarter trim. Also I think I still have both pieces of DR rear door trim and 1 or 2 other pieces of the lower door trim. Let me know what you need

Cruise? I might have some pieces from 59 and up Imperials. I don't even think cruise control was optional on '58 Desotos. I have the doors from this car, that is about it, anything else that was any good I am saving for my own '58 Desoto. I also have some 57 Chrysler fenders.

Oh ok. Yeah I'm looking for roof and headlight metal for mine. Those Chrysler fenders might work, since all I need is the metal for the lights. Any pics of the fenders?

I need the rear window interior garnish trim to a firedome 2-d. I think they are the same on 2-d and 4-d hardtop.

The '58 Firedome coupe never came with the rear window garrish trim. That's why yours is missing, Ralf. I'm pretty sure the 4dr trim is different.

Sorry I didn't reply to those who asked about parts. It was a power steering car I have the steering column and I'm almost positive I have the power steering gearbox. No windshield

How did you go with the air cleaner base? Previous owner got to mine with a grinder and messed it up badly.

Would your car have this dome lamp over the glove box? I would like to find one that doesn't need to be re-chromed.

You could clean that chrome up really well to the point that you wouldn't notice it.

The rust has etched pretty deep into the steel, the pits are worse than they appear in the picture.

Those are prone to that kind of rust, all I have is ones that need replating, not sure you'll find on that doesn't after 60+ years

Do you have the rear bumper from this car? I am in need of one. It must also have the mounting brackets with it. I didn't want to pay to ship one, but it looks like I have no choice.
