'Collectible Automobile' May 1985 issue has a Chrysler 300 Letter Series story. In page 43 is a picture of a black '57 300 C and it has 2 headlights. Owned by Ken Block, NS-1 man.. I have not ever seen a pix of '57 DeSoto Adventurer with 2 headlights. All the '57 Mopars which imported new in Finland were with 2 headlights, but Adventurer wasn't an export model (still 0 would have been, if it was). MTL
