DeSoto's are well represented this year at the Barrett-Jackson classic car auction. check their web site and watch the action on the speed channel or http://www.speedtv.com
cheers, tom
I see the '55 that Tony owned in the vehicle list.
Also last years top sale '56 Fireflite Convertible with the dual-four manifold is listed again. Since B-J last year, that car was offered at an auction in Tulsa, besides being offered again here at B-J.
And a '56 Convertible dressed up as an Adventurer. Pretty car.
Looking forward to watching the RM auction online on Friday night and hope to catch the '56 we restored several years ago as it goes across the block.
It's supposed to be fun!

They are expecting 71 degrees and sunny today. bring your walking shoes if you want to inspect all the DeSoto's
Cheers, tom

How exciting for you to be there! John and I have been watching speed tv since it started and playing the fantasy bid. I am excited to see the desoto's come up and what they go for. We have noticed though, if you watch barrett jackson on speedtv.com on your computer (stream lining), you don't miss so many cars being auction off, no commercials. So watch on the computer too.
Wish we were there!
