Today I drove down to N. Miami to check out a 57 DeSoto 2 dr htp. that is in the newspaper. What a shame. According to his wife it's been sitting in the driveway for 18 years. He bought it, parked it, and that was it. He never drove it !!! It's rusted so bad that when I opened the door it tilted down a few inches and I saw the entire firewall move. The roof is rusted through all around so it can be lifted off like a hat. The entire body is like swiss-cheese. The front bumper was mostly aluminum foil shaped to resemble what was left of a bumper. The little Hemi looked good under the hood but was stuck. It was sad to see. '58 Plymouth - "Christine" '59 DeSoto '60 Imperial cnvt.
