58Roadmaster ◊ 2009-08-06 20:17	By the chrome piece visible just before the door jamb on the front fender and shape of the unified grille and front bumper, this is a 1958 model. Other information may be found in the pattern of the interior or with knowledge of which models were produced as convertibles.

bw626 ◊ 2010-06-06 20:00	1958 Fireflite convertible. These were very rare, only a couple hundred were made. Is it just me or do the 58 Desotos kind of look like the 58 Fords, from the front?
