Location: North Australia | Looks like a very nice car. As Doc would say, Desoto made a good looking Dodge, (or is it the other way round???) Steve. https://www.ebay.com/itm/1957-DeSoto-Firesweep-Firesweep/19328803400... Edited by 60 Imp 2020-01-07 7:38 AM | ||

I noticed that too. Few things spoil the look of of a 50s car/FL like wrong offset wheels. Looks like a 70s hot wheels model. Terrible. | ||

Expert 5K+ Posts: 9880 Location: So. Cal | A Firesweep would have come with a 325 poly motor, so it looks like they have replaced it with a DeSoto hemi. I wonder which one. | ||

Expert Posts: 4110 Location: Connecticut | What would really s-u-c-k is if the new owner repaired the starter, then found out that the engine was locked up, had a rod knock, or other problems. Ron | ||

Expert 5K+ Posts: 9880 Location: So. Cal | What? I thought it sold? I agree Ron, not repairing a $100 starter, will at best, cost the buyer $500-$1000 in transportation fees, and could hide a host of other issues. Thus, the value gets knocked down by the ensuing guesstimate. It's very irresponsible for them not to fix such a simple problem before it's sold, if that's really all that's wrong with it. | ||
