This car is used and is restorable. It has been stored in a dirt floor garage for over 43 years. The engine still turns freely. It is mostly complete.
This barn find is all original and was owned by the same family since new. It has almost all of it's original parts. It is only missing driver side rocker trim. exterior driver door lock. hood ornament. and one hub cap. I found this project in a dirt floor garage where it stayed for over 40 years.
Pros:Body is original Engine turns freely ( Search "1947 De Soto cranking engine" on You Tube to see video) Has optional 5 button radio Has optional heater Has optional dealer-installed Exterior visor Fluid drive Has not been cut or modified Windshields are good Rear window is good Has all it's lights
Cons:Since it sat in a dirt floor garage for about 40 years. the lower body panels have some rust through (particularly the floor and trunk). There are some places of old body work (heavy bondo and some leading)Two cracked windows (door glass and vent wing glass)Interior is in need of replacement / rebuild
