1960 Desoto Fireflite
« on: June 17, 2007 - 09:58:47 PM »
Anyone ever seen one?  Saw one at a car show today.  First I'd seen of them, very cool styling!  And a Chrysler 383 dual quad setup to boot! :2thumbs:

There is an episode of "My Classic Car" with one of those and that is the only one I have ever seen.  Looked like a really cool car.

I knew I saw that car somewhere!  I like that show with the handlebar guy! 

Oh and HemiDog, I love your Homer avitar!

Kinda reminds me of an upside down 4 headlight sweptline.  Weird.   :screwy:
