    Someone should know something about it. The poster said they rescued it from a salvage yard. It has a 20?? Dash plaque from a hotrod event of some type. If I had a place to put it without the wife seeing it, I’d go get it. Drop it, sbc with a th350, lake pipes and it could be truly cl***ic and a blast to drive.

    For sure 57 or 58 DeSoto. Tail lights are identical so it could be either.

    Man, you better go get it anyway. Surely you can work something out, shouldn't have to cost more than the car.

    I did some checking. Hooked up the trailer and charged the winch battery. The answer was pretty clear. If I bring home another project it will cost half and I better be able to live inn it. Now I’m thinking she wants me to find a toterhome with living quarters. Hmmmm

    Personally I would prefer 55 Plymouth or even 55 Chevy tailights over these
