<br> If you have special requests like this, especially ones that cost more, don't let that money go down the drain! With all this, the '58 DeSotos? were quite quick even without the Hemi, helped by fast-shifting TorqueFlite?, now standard on Fireflites and Adventurers. The upper was called Adventurer, but sold for a few hundred dollars below '59 Fireflites and was much-less-special than previous Adventurers. Other models carried a big-bore 361 with 295 bhp in standard Firedome tune, 305 with twin four-barrels in Fireflites (optional on Firedomes), 345 in high-compression Adventurer guise, and a smashing 355 for Adventurers with optional Bendix fuel injection. Injection cost a hefty $637.20 and few were ordered. But DeSoto?'s fate had long been sealed, so Chrysler wound down production by Christmas 1960, filling what few orders remained with mostly '61 Windsors. DeSoto?'s version of this second-generation Forward Look was quite handsome: dartlike profile, tri-tower taillamps attractively integrated into the soaring rear fenders, simple but pleasant side moldings, prominent bumper/grille, B Decking Metal and acres more glass. Round the plus side though non slate tables are reduced and can easily mean it’s possible to afford one in certain situations. This space can fit about 80-100 people indoors with tables and chairs.<br>
<br> In the same way that the right tie or scarf can transform a ho-hum outfit into a knockout ensemble, the right accessories for your trailer hitch can make or break your towing experience. Since it's mounted on top of the car, a roof-mounted cargo box doesn't get in the way of brake lights, but this can be a problem with rear-mounted cargo carriers. And racing -- or rather improved aerodynamics for higher top speed -- was the main reason behind the 1963 Mercury Marauder and its new-for-1963 Ford cousin, the Galaxie 500 Sports Hardtop. Small log buildings soon clustered around a main lodge. Their main purpose was to make Chrysler products stand out from the crowd -- which they most definitely did. But then Chrysler combined DeSoto? and Plymouth Divisions in 1960, with the new compact Valiant an ostensibly separate make. The advent of Imperial as a separate make for 1955 prompted Chrysler Division to expand in the lower end of its price territory, while Dodge moved upward with larger, more-luxurious cars.<br>
<br> And that wasn't the end of it. The year's most-popular DeSoto? was the Fireflite sedan, but even it failed to exceed 10,000 units. DeSoto?'s 1960 line reflected these developments: cut to just a sedan, hardtop sedan, and hardtop coupe in two series. Last but not least, a soft-top Adventurer joined the hardtop coupe in a separate series above Fireflite. Fireflite offered all these plus a convertible
