Description Summary 330 4 barrel V8 with 255hp, automatic push button transmission, power steering, power brakes, Kelsey Hayes wire wheels, great driving car, Iridescent Grey and Shell Pink, new correct leather and cloth interior. Details As DeSoto's luxury line for 1956, the Fireflite offered richly appointed interiors with a distinctive 'Gullwing' styled dash and smart two tone exterior finishes delineated by remarkably restrained bright trim spears. An unusually clean front bumper and a wide grille design with twin upright bars provided a low and wide presence, while smooth front bodylines flowed into neatly restrained tailfins beginning underneath the C-pillars terminating with Fireflite's vertically-stacked tail lamps. This 1956 Fireflite Sportsman clearly benefits from a loving restoration and excellent care within a noted private collection based in Central Texas. Visually stunning and distinctively finished in Iridescent Grey and Shell Pink, it is equipped with a new wiring harness, a new and correct leather and cloth interior, Kelsey-Hayes chrome wire wheels and period-style wide whitewall tires. Highly desirable original features include a push button AM radio, power brakes, power steering, a power-operated seat and power windows. A handsomely presented example of Virgil Exner's design legacy with a powerful and highly detailed HEMI V8 and a push button-operated automatic transmission. Documentation included: Build Sheet, letter from Chrysler Historical Society, original buyer's contract and owner's manual.
