rjluna2 ◊ 2009-05-03 03:58	What about the side trim similar to /vehicle_173614-Plymouth-Savoy-1958.html ? Could this be the Canadian "Plodge" series?
car nerd ◊ 2009-05-03 05:13	If it were a Canadian model it would have a Dodge front end rather than a DeSoto version. -- Last edit: 2009-05-03 05:14:09
rjluna2 ◊ 2009-05-06 04:56	Now I understand that is DeSoto Diplomat for the export market as described at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DeSoto_Diplomat .
