Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Fluid Drive, P top, original style radio with integrated CD changer. 64,446 miles, one owner, California black plate. Freshly restored to like new condition with very good paint, interior and chrome. A very rare piece. Early Thursday. No Reserve.

Market commentary

It would probably cost this much to replicate this DeSotors restoration, but thats no reason to pay this much for it. A gutless flathead six lies under the hood and the styling is about as unimaginative as anything Detroit built in the early Fifties. Everything over $35K is going to take years of inflation to recover.
