1942 dash article in Hemmings - General Discussion https://desoto.org/community/general-discussion/1942-dash-article-in-hemmings/ Discussion Board en-US Sun, 08 Mar 2026 22:03:09 +0000 wpForo 60 RE: 1942 dash article in Hemmings https://desoto.org/community/general-discussion/1942-dash-article-in-hemmings/#post-12066 Mon, 02 Sep 2019 16:28:48 +0000 A friend at church passed on this article to me on behalf of her husband (not a DeSoto guy!). I went to Google to check out the NB collection and found out the following:

It is a private collection and is not open to public tours. Instead they take cars to area car shows and events. BUT

The 42 is part of an exhibit at the America on Wheels museum also in Allentown, AP. The title is 

NICOLA BULGARI, A LIFETIME DEVOTION TO THE AMERICAN AUTOMOBILE

The exhibit is open until October 19th.

So if there are any NDCers in the area, this is your chance to see a beautiful restoration of a 42 DeLuxe DeSoto.
