It would be a really good idea if someone would post the trim codes for 1955 Desoto. I have the paint codes already, but trim codes are hard to come by.
In the mean time, does anyone know what trim code 466 is ?
Thanks,
Ron
Ron,
Trim code 466 for the 55 DeSoto is the code for Green Cloth and Ivory Leather available for use on S-21 Fireflite Convertible Coupe and Sportsman models recommended with solid paint codes 315, 315, and 317 and two tone codes 380, 381, 382, 383, 384, 386, 421, and 422.

Mac -
Where can I find the information on trim codes that you are referencing ?

Ron,
This information on the trim and paint codes for the 55 DeSotos is from the dealer order information. This was taken from the archives of my local DeSoto-Plymouth dealer here in Laurens. I will attempt to attach the trim and paint portion of the order information. This is a one piece, fold out document whichmakes it difficult to copy. You may need to print the attachments and piece them back together in order to make sense of them.

Thanks Mac !
I can probably assemble the three pieces in photoshop. It would be great if you could bring the folder to a FedEx Office or similar printer place and have the whole thing scanned into a pdf. Then it could be added to the Resources section of the website. Then anyone could view or download it without having to seek out this thread.
