1948 DeSoto 4 Door Custom Fluid Drive Sedan Project or Parts Car
This is a 1948 DeSoto 4 Door Custom Fluid Drive Sedan. The seller has owned this car for 35 years and it is a complete car and comes with a clear title. It has not run in years and is obviously a project car or parts car. Mileage shows 34,233 on the odometer but actual mileage is unknown.
I strongly advise any interested party to inspect the car or have it inspected prior to bidding. This is being sold as a non running car in “as is” and “where is” condition. You will need to have it picked up or towed from the property.
The car features a flat head 6 motor with fluid drive transmission. Also, the numbers on the trim plate on the firewall are as follows:
Body Number: 118049
Model: 1125
Paint: 513
Trim: 917
7243206 (not sure what that # is)
Vehicle Condition – – I have personally inspected and photographed this vehicle. It is a non running project car that can be restored and brought back to life. Interior is rough.
I’ve seen worse cars that have come back to incredible condition. This car will take dedication and knowledge but does represent a great project for father and son for example. Could also be a great street rod.
Remember that it is being offered in rough yet original condition. It is clearly being offered in “as is” and “where is” condition.
I invite and encourage any interested party to inspect this classic in Sugar Grove, Illinois.
