1955 Desoto Hemi Wagon Original Solid Project Car

Description for DeSoto Wagon 1955

This is a Solid original wagon that is 95% complete. It has the factory 291 hemi V8 and automatic transmission. It has been stored many years and will need a complete restoration. It has some extra parts that are not on the car like the radio and windshield outer stainless sunvisor. The wagon only parts appear to be all there. The rear seats fold down easily and have all their original stainless runners. The rear seat still has a plastic cover on it and looks pretty good. The front seat bottom has been changed. The front floors and one side of the rear floor has some rust holes ...the rest of the floors are nice including the spare tire well. I have the rear glass window for the tailgate and the outer roll down handle and are included with the car. All the original tinted glass is good and the windows roll up and down. The only other rust is in the rear wheel wells behind the wheels and some in the lower right rocker. The engine does not turn easily and is probably stuck...I would count on taking it apart before starting it. The rear springs seam weak and the car sits a little low in the back. The Rear differential is not original and is out of a 1955 Chrysler...the rear wheel bolt pattern is different. Call or e-mail with any questions, I might be able to deliver in the Northwest for a fee...thanks Mike 541-788-5756.
