Description of 1955 DeSoto Fireflite |
This is a great survivor. It was owned by an elderly couple in Idaho. It came from their estate sale. The pictures speak for themselves. but I can also tell you they took meticulous care of it. They showed it at many local car shows over the years. The Hemi engine and auto transmission are strong and operate flawlessly. It speedometer shows 21. 00 miles. but I can't verify the mileage. I originally purchased it do a resto-mod updating to disc brakes. adding electronic ignition. etc. Sadly. I have not had the time or recourses to do so. I have decided to sell it to someone who can and appreciation this fine automobile. At a recent Mecum auction a similar ’55 Fireflite 2dr sold for $32. 00. That car did have new disc brakes and a later model used Hemi engine. The reserve price is many thousands less than $32K. A buyer could maintain this car as is for years or update it as I had planned. ATTENTION: PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING The vehicle has been described to the best of my ability. and as with all pre-owned vehicles. the condition is subjective. It is to be assumed that all used vehicles have some degree of wear. The vehicle is sold in "AS IS WHERE IS" condition with no guarantees or warranties written or implied. I encourage an interested bidder to make arrangements to inspect the car. Please ask any questions before bidding. Call or text 239-834-7457 |
