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. -
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. -

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. A full-flow oil filter was standard. which featured a rigid, deep-skirt block; in-line overhead valves employing a single shaft in each cylinder head. Its weight dropped to 640 pounds; less than the DeSoto-only Hemi it replaced. DeSoto, Dodge and Plymouth shared the new engine, with Chrysler continuing to use their big 392 CID Hemi. 1958 FIRESWEEP SERIES LS1-L (8-Cylinder wedge-head V-8): This series continued to use the Dodge chassis. Body side trim was redesigned so that the upper molding ran at an angle to the upper corner of the tailfin. -
