    It's an inline engine not a Vee-type. Bearings and such should be available through your local NAPA, CarQuest or O'Reilly's store.

    We had a 1950 Desoto years ago. Did you buy this down south of STL in Fredericktown mo? I would bet it was our old one. Please reply. its was a 2 door.

    Here is a good web site for the flathead DeSoto, they are mainly Dodge and Plymouth but the members know DeSotos too.

    Good places for parts on the net are Andy Bernbaum and Roberts Auto Parts.
