Classic Car Overview

HIGHLIGHTS:



Original styling


5.7L Gen III Hemi


4L80E Automatic Transmission


Wilwood power disc brakes



BODY OVERVIEW:

This 1955 DeSoto Fireflite Sportsman retains its original, elegant lines and classic styling. The body has been preserved, maintaining the authenticity and character that make this car a true vintage beauty. There are some dents in the roof, but otherwise imperfections are at a minimum. Please see photos. 

PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW:

The paint appears to be largely original and shows off its age gracefully. While there are some imperfections such as chips and paint bubbles as expected with a car of this vintage, these minor flaws do not detract from this DeSoto’s beauty! Please see photos. 

INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW:

Step inside and be transported to the 1950s. The interior appears largely original and presents very well, showcasing the luxurious design and craftsmanship of Forward Look Mopars. The lack of interior customization, despite the Hemi under the hood, is one of our favorite aspects of this vehicle. All that 1950s charm is still present! 

MECHANICAL OVERVIEW:

Beneath the hood lies a 5.7L fuel-injected Gen III Hemi, paired with a GM 4L80E overdrive automatic transmission, offering the best of both worlds: vintage looks with modern reliability and performance! Additionally, Wilwood power disc brakes on all four corners provide superior stopping power, and polished Pro Comp wheels give it a subtle yet striking update.

WHAT YOU'LL LOVE ABOUT THIS CAR:



Timeless Style: Maintains its original 1950s charm with tasteful modern upgrades.


Performance: Modern Hemi engine and transmission provide power and reliability.


Safety: Upgraded Wilwood power disc brakes ensure superior braking performanc
