    THE CHESAPEAKE BULLETIN The Official Monthly Newsletter of Chesapeake Region Antique Automobile Club of America Volume 57 Number 8 August 2017 It's Official! Chesapeake Region Is Hosting The 2018 Eastern Spring Meet At Gettysburg's Wyndham Hotel By Bill Wurzell, Editor It was discussed and voted on at the July 9 membership meeting that Chesapeake Region would take up the challenge from AACA to host the 2018 Eastern Spring Meet to be held in Gettysburg, Pa., July 11-14, 2018. This event has been simmering on the back burner for a couple years. In 2015, when Presi- dent Paula Ruby invited then AACA President Donald Barlup to be a guest along with his wife at our annual banquet in November at Friend- ly Farm Restaurant, it was a sellout. President Barlup remarked at the excellent turnout of nearly 180 members, saying 'Chesapeake Re- gion should step up to the plate' and host a na- tional tour, or better yet, a national meet. Since that time, AACA 2016 President Rob- ert Parrish, and current AACA President Tom Cox have also challenged President Paula with similar pleas. It boiled over recently when Na- tional AACA had no region to host the 2018 Eastern Spring Meet; the die was cast! Okay, you say that’s great! But, why Gettsyburg in PENNSYLVANIA? Why not somewhere in the Chesapeake Region? A fair question. The major factor is, there really isn’t was also the chief organizer along with Tom President, Al Zimmermann, President Paula a venue that can accommodate this meet as Kenney for the 2016 National DeSoto Club Ruby, and past presidents, Gary Wilmer, and well as the Gettysburg area.

  • 1959 Desoto Cars Described
    1959 DESOTO CARS DESCRIBED 1959 DESOTO - GENERAL: The DeSoto remained virtually unchanged from the 1958 model year, except for trim and front fascia, where DeSotos had three air scoops built right into the bi-level front bumper. At the bottom was a full-width scoop. Above it, on either side of the license plate indentation, were two more. A rectangular cross-hatched grille insert stretched between the headlights. On the body sides, full-length sweep spears were narrower and redesigned. They took a dip behind the rear wheel openings and then curved upwards towards the tips of tall tailfins. The tri-cluster turret shaped taillight lenses were still there while a large double rear bumper with beauty panels between the top and bottom members was featured. After such a wonderful year in 1957, the recession was hammering the line very hard once again in 1959, so the powers that be at DeSoto were wise to keep new tooling to a minimum. Not only that, but this would be the final year for separate frame and body construction in all Chrysler products, so there was even more incentive to keep sheet metal changes to a minimum. 1959 would be the last season for DeSoto convertibles and station wagons. INNOVATIONS: Swivel buckets made their debut across the entire Chrysler Corporation line this year. 1959 FIRESWEEP SERIES MS1-L (8-Cylinder wedge-head V-8): There were no series nameplates on Firesweep models. The silver colored inserts—standard in Fireflite and Firedome—that ran along the body sides were an option. The four-door sedan had painted side window trim.

  • WHY a HEMI®? HEMI® Milestones
    WHY A HEMI®? In 1951, Chrysler Corporation introduced its entry in the post-war horsepower race, a V-8 engine designed with hemispherical combustion chambers. Quickly dubbed the “HEMI®,” its power and efficiency made it an instant favorite for all sorts of motor sport vehicles. Although reluctantly retired in 1959 due to high manufacturing cost, the HEMI design was still unsurpassed. In 1964, NASCAR competition sparked the HEMI’s return, and it has remained available for motor sport use ever since. Now, 50 years after the original, there’s a new HEMI whose efficiency and power make it ideal for today’s needs. HEMI® Milestones A journey through a remarkable engine’s remarkable history... 1939 Chrysler begins design work on first HEMI®, a V-16 for fighter aircraft. 1951 Chrysler stuns automotive world with 180 hp HEMI V-8 engine. 1951 Chrysler New Yorker convertible paces Indianapolis 500 race. 1951 Saratoga first in Stock Car Class; second overall in Carrera Pan-Americana road race. 1951 Briggs Cunningham chooses HEMI engines for his Le Mans race cars. 1952 A special HEMI is tested in a Kurtis Kraft Indy roadster; it’s banned by racing officials as too fast. 1953 Lee Petty’s HEMI Dodge wins five NASCAR races and finishes second in championship points. 1953 Cunningham’s C-4R HEMI wins 12 Hours of Sebring and finishes third at Le Mans. 1953 A Dodge HEMI V-8 breaks 196 stock car records at Bonneville Salt Flats. 1954 A Chrysler HEMI with 4-barrel and dual exhausts makes 235 hp. 1954 Lee Petty wins Daytona Beach race in a Chrysler HEMI.

  • 1957 Desoto Cars Described
    1957 DESOTO CARS DESCRIBED 1957 DESOTO - GENERAL: DeSoto models were announced October 30, 1956, less the Adventurer, which came two months later. All new styling and chassis engineering characterized 1957 DeSotos. Changes from 1956 included: new bodies that were lower and longer, new side trim and color sweep treatments, a massive new bumper grille combination, and new upswept rear fender tailfins. All Chrysler products went to a torsion bar suspension for 1957, called "Torsionaire" in advertising. The overdrive transmission was discontinued this year. A new entry level model was introduced, called the "Firesweep" series, that used the 1957 Dodge chassis and drivetrain under its skin. INNOVATIONS: Torsion bar front suspension, called “Torsion-Aire” and the Torqueflite 3-speed automatic transmission was introduced on Firedome and Fireflite DeSotos and big sister Chrysler as well as 14" tires/rims. Dual headlamps would become standard mid-year, when accepted by all states. 1957 FIRESWEEP SERIES S27 (8-Cylinder v-8): This new, lower-priced line helped increase DeSoto production during what would be known as a major recession year. Identification features for this line were "Firesweep" on the rear fender, a wide continuous metal band on the tops and side of the headlamp hoods, optional dual color "sweep moldings" or a standard trim treatment that had a molding starting at the rear of the car and extending forward across two-thirds of the front door. Standard features included: "Torsionaire Ride", "Oriflow" shocks, "Safety-Lock" door latches, "Total Contact" brakes and "Power-Tip" spark plugs. Firesweeps used Dodge sourced engines that were featured Polyspheric "semi-hemi" combustion chambers and 325 CID.

  • 1956 Desoto Cars Described
    1956 DESOTO CARS DESCRIBED 1956 DESOTO - GENERAL: The forward Look was now totally in place, with sweeping lines and fins in full evidence. At the front, a new perforated mesh grille with a large 'V' in the center dominated the front fascia – the "teeth" were gone. The new front bumper guards incorporated the parking lamps. At the rear, the taillight clusters were completely redone, with three tiers of turret-shaped lenses, and long, sweeping tail fin rear fenders replaced the older designs. A large, V-shaped emblem dominated the rear deck. Color sweep two-toning remained a feature, although the shape of the contrast panels was revised. Biggest news was that a four-door pillarless hardtop was introduced for both the Firedome and Fireflite. The DeSoto Hemi was enlarged yet again, this time to 330 CID, with the new Adventurer out further to 341 CID. INNOVATIONS: A 12-volt electrical system was adopted for all DeSotos. Pushbuttons were now used for the Powerflite automatic transmission controls. 1956 FIREDOME SERIES S23 (8-Cylinder Hemi): Cars in the Firedome series had "Firedome" in script on the front fenders, chrome plated headlamp hoods, and the top of the front fenders was unadorned. Standard side trim was a plain, full-length molding of consistent width, while "Color Sweep" two-tone paint was optional on hardtop models. This option was unique to the Firedome line. Station wagons could be ordered with a third type of color sweep pattern. Wagons also had chrome plated bolt-on type rear fins. Standard equipment included: full-time power steering, independent parking brake, safety rim wheels, "Oriflow" shock absorbers, constant speed electric windshield wipers, safety door latches, all-weather headlights, Super Highway taillamp clusters, and center-plane brakes.

  • 1958 Desoto Cars Described
    1958 DESOTO CARS DESCRIBED 1958 DESOTO - GENERAL: 1958 DeSoto styling was a minor facelift from the 1957 models. Changes included a honeycomb grille insert, a dip in the center of the middle grille bar and round parking lights at the outboard ends of the lower grille opening. Dual headlamps were standard on all models. For the first time, Fireflite, Firedome and Firesweep all offered an expanded model line including convertibles, hardtops and 4-door sedans, less station wagons. Wagons were only available in the Fireflite and Firesweep line. Eighty-six two-tone and 14 solid color schemes were offered for 1958. Biggest news was the introduction of the new "B" Series "corporate" V-8 engine, used across all lines except Chrysler. INNOVATIONS: The new "B" series V-8 with wedge-shaped combustion chamber-head. It was the first of the new generation "corporate" V-8s, available in 350 and 361 CID the new cylinder heads and the distributor in the front of the engine for easier service.
