1948 Desoto Custom 2 Door Coupe
Here is the Sister to the 48 Dodge. They look to be exact twins, but everything on Desoto is bigger; fenders, doors, and quarters are longer. A larger Flathead six, and a different type of Fluid Drive
. Fun car to play with, we have loaned it out for weddings, proms, and parades.1975 GL1000 Red
