Re: [FWDLK] 55 Desoto Models?

Hi, John:

According to Dennis Doty writing in the August 2, 1988 edition of
"Collectible Automobile," Jo-Han produced a promo 1955 DeSoto Fireflite
sedan. His article, called "Doting Over Demi-DeSotos and Mini Cadillacs,"
shows photos of two very nice '55 promo models, both sedans, one white on
red, the other light blue on medium blue.

According the article, the promos lack interiors. The exterior is nicely
detailed, though. Looks a friction version is the one to have.

Good luck with your search.

It's a DeSoto Utopia.
