CAR DESCRIPTION FROM SELLER
Here is a very nice and VERY RARE 1956 DeSoto Firedome Seville 2 door hardtop sport coupe (no center post when you roll down the windows). This car is very stock and original looking, NOT a modified hot rod. Very stylish 50's car! Very solid throughout! It was painted one time over 20 years ago, still looks great and holds a nice shine! Engine and transmission are very strong. Features a 331 Cubic Inch Hemi V8 and "Powerflite" push button drive automatic transmission. Interior is excellent! Recently driven on a 2 hour trip in 85 degree weather at interstate speeds with no issues! Very strong and drives nice. All original under hood, not modified. This is a very rare model that was only made for 6 months as GM sued Chrysler over using the name Seville. GM had the rights and was using that name on Cadillacs. DeSotos from the Virgil Exner "Forward Look" era are hard to find to begin with. This one is doubly rare! When is the last time you ever saw one? Classic 1950's colors of pink and black, too! Don't miss this rare opportunity!ABOUT ME: I have collected old cars for over 40 years. I favor original stock cars that have not been hot rodded or modified. I will sometimes sell one out of my collection to make room. Call me with any questions at:518-604-4237 or 518-604-4186. IMPORTANT: CALLS ONLY, NO TEXTS!!! These are Best to CALL BOTH NUMBERS and leave word at both if no answer.NOW FOR THE RULES:1. A $500.00 NON REFUNDABLE partial payment is due immediately on purchase with Buy it Now. This is to be made by Pay Pal. Balance is to be paid within 7 days. Bank to bank wire transfer is preferred. Pay Pal is NOT acceptable for payment of balance.2. Your bid is a contract! If you buy, you are expected to pay! Please make sure your money is in place, all questions are answered, and all decision makers consulted BEFORE you bid! Full payment is due within 7 days of purchase.3. Car and ownership paperwork will not leave here until car is paid in full with cleared funds at my bank or cash. Please remember that due to increased fraud with official checks and money orders, banks now hold the deposit up for as many as 10 business days. Best way to pay is by bank to bank wire transfer, it protects both buyer and seller. This is what I prefer.4. Car is sold strictly AS/IS, NO WARRANTY at my premises. Transportation/shipping is buyer's responsibility. I will help you any reasonable way I can, but it is still your responsibility. 5. Car can remain here for a reasonable amount of time while you are arranging transportation or pickup, but still must be paid in full within the 7 days. Also, once you buy, you need to insure the car, as I cannot be responsible for acts of God or damage beyond my control. 6. International buyers are welcome, but must pay with wire transfer, and again, must be paid with cleared funds before car and ownership paperwork will be released to your shipper.7. Please remember, this is NOT a new car. It is a very nice classic car that is 64 years old. As such, there are some flaws that are consistent with this (minor nicks, dings, cosmetic imperfections, etc.). It is a clean car, but is by no means a 100 point show car. Please realize this when you bid.8. Please feel free to call me at:Landlines: 518-604-4237 or 518-604-4186 (Call both, leave word if no answer). Again, make sure you get satisfactory answers to all questions BEFORE you commit to buy!9. In New York State cars made 1972 and older are not titled. They have a transferrable registration which is signed over on the back of the document just like you would transfer ownership on the back of a title, along with a bill of sale. Please check with your state DMV BEFORE you buy.I am sorry for all the rules, but it seems 5% of difficult people spoil things for the 95% who are good. Thanks for looking, good luck, and again, feel free to call me at 704-661-1326 (Cell) 518-604-4237 (Landline). Again, call and leave word. NO TEXTS, CALLS ONLY!
