Re: [MBZ] OT 1949 Desoto car,$1,000

2020-03-25 Thread Peter Frederick via Mercedes
Never had the joy of driving a flathead -- my first car was a '62 Olds Dynamic 
88 with a badly adjusted transmission (i.e. the famous "no reverse" option).  
The only two things dynamic about it were the rate at which gasoline vanished 
from the tank and it's propensity to run FAR too fast for the pitiful brakes it 
had on the highway.

About 10 mpg in town, if you floored it the tranny shifted into 3rd at 90 
mph.

Second car was a '72 VW Beatle.

*I had an early '50s DeSoto with a Firedome 8. It moved.*

*Later I owned a series of Volvos. They rolled.*

Me too.  My next car after the DeSotos was a '59 Volvo P544S.

Rust free in spots.

My first two cars were 1950 DeSotos with the semi-automatic transmission.
These are uncollectibles.
