6-passenger Shopper or 9-passenger Explorer? |

Explorer for sure. You can't see it clearly in listing photo, but the rear fender shows the large circular Explorer badge. ![[Image: desoto59expwagon.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/18675/desoto59expwagon.jpg) ![[Image: desoto59expwagonpromo.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/18675/desoto59expwagonpromo.jpg) 3.05 @10:52 1958 DeSoto used in 2nd season was also a Fireflite Explorer. -- Last edit: 2014-04-16 06:06:00 |

The circular badge indicates Fireflite; the Fireflite Shopper had it too. But since it was provided to the show by DeSoto, I'd lean towards Explorer anyway. |

proof positive: "Explorer" script lower right below "DeSoto" block lettering![[Image: desoto59expwagonbak.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/18675/desoto59expwagonbak.jpg) episode 3.38 @0:59 IMDb and the various sites sometimes have conflicting and/or impossible season/episode numbers. For example, a '59 DeSoto can't be appearing in season 1. I have mismarked a few, will backtrack and correct where I can. Admins, please feel free to help out. On a lot of these shows the cast credits are headed by an episode number. Season # is by copyright and vintage of newest car seen: '56 = season 1 '57 = season 2 '58 = season 3 '59 = season 3 or 4 '60 = season 4 -- Last edit: 2014-04-30 15:26:50 |
