I'm curious to understand about this engine installed in the car.]]> Class 4 '55-'56 DeSoto Bruno Closs https://desoto.org/community/class-4-55-56-desoto/lauxs-bruno-closs-55-desoto-diplomat-convertible/#post-11377 https://desoto.org/community/class-4-55-56-desoto/lauxs-bruno-closs-55-desoto-diplomat-convertible/#post-11376 Fri, 02 Mar 2018 11:41:13 +0000 Class 4 '55-'56 DeSoto LeeExline https://desoto.org/community/class-4-55-56-desoto/lauxs-bruno-closs-55-desoto-diplomat-convertible/#post-11376 https://desoto.org/community/class-4-55-56-desoto/lauxs-bruno-closs-55-desoto-diplomat-convertible/#post-11375 Thu, 01 Mar 2018 06:41:42 +0000 LeeExline: Thank you very much for all the information. I will double check where is the correct stamped engine number. I have really not much idea if the engine was replaced or not(there where no 360's on the DeSoto line?). Might be the case, given the car is coming from Uruguay and that is very common there to swap engines. The transmission is indeed automatic and do have the lever just beside the steering wheel. I will order now the manual with the SP26 and SP27 models, thanks for the confirmation. As a first impression, Plymouth parts seems to be easier to find. FredRoman: Thanks for the warm welcome. Honestly we are very much impressed with the condition of the car. All trims, buttons and details are still on the car. The body do have some rust, but it is minor compared to what we should expect from a car this old down here in South America. We also would like to be in the US, maybe later this year we might go! Let's see! Does anyone have any idea about production numbers of this exact car?]]> Class 4 '55-'56 DeSoto Bruno Closs https://desoto.org/community/class-4-55-56-desoto/lauxs-bruno-closs-55-desoto-diplomat-convertible/#post-11375 https://desoto.org/community/class-4-55-56-desoto/lauxs-bruno-closs-55-desoto-diplomat-convertible/#post-11374 Wed, 28 Feb 2018 23:28:47 +0000 Class 4 '55-'56 DeSoto FredRoman https://desoto.org/community/class-4-55-56-desoto/lauxs-bruno-closs-55-desoto-diplomat-convertible/#post-11374 https://desoto.org/community/class-4-55-56-desoto/lauxs-bruno-closs-55-desoto-diplomat-convertible/#post-11373 Wed, 28 Feb 2018 03:40:16 +0000 Class 4 '55-'56 DeSoto LeeExline https://desoto.org/community/class-4-55-56-desoto/lauxs-bruno-closs-55-desoto-diplomat-convertible/#post-11373 https://desoto.org/community/class-4-55-56-desoto/lauxs-bruno-closs-55-desoto-diplomat-convertible/#post-11372 Wed, 28 Feb 2018 03:29:38 +0000 Class 4 '55-'56 DeSoto LeeExline https://desoto.org/community/class-4-55-56-desoto/lauxs-bruno-closs-55-desoto-diplomat-convertible/#post-11372 https://desoto.org/community/class-4-55-56-desoto/lauxs-bruno-closs-55-desoto-diplomat-convertible/#post-11371 Wed, 28 Feb 2018 03:23:14 +0000 Class 4 '55-'56 DeSoto LeeExline https://desoto.org/community/class-4-55-56-desoto/lauxs-bruno-closs-55-desoto-diplomat-convertible/#post-11371
