Description
This 1953 DeSoto Adventurer Firedome wagon represents a rare opportunity to own one of DeSoto's most distinctive designs from the marque's golden era. Powered by the legendary 291 cubic inch Hemi engine and equipped with an automatic transmission, this four-door wagon embodies the engineering that made DeSoto a genuine player in the luxury market during the early 1950s.
The car is a genuine dry western Colorado example with excellent bones for a full restoration. Original sheet metal remains solid, and a complete extra right fender is included with the sale. The car will require comprehensive restoration work throughout, though its long desert storage means minimal rust concerns.
Notable details include some missing grille teeth—typical wear for a vehicle of this age and patina. The engine is currently non-running but complete and restorable. Clean, clear title is in hand, providing a straightforward path forward for the dedicated enthusiast ready to bring this pre-war design philosophy back to life.
