Ce n'est pas du tout une Chevrolet! C'est une DeSoto de 1956! |

C'est pourtant bien le vieux logo chevrolet qu'on apercoit sur l'aile arrière gauche, sur la photo ? |

Mai en effet, les baguettes metallqiues sur les cotés montrent qu'il s'agit bien d'une DeSoto... Mille excuses ! |

We should find what is written on the head sides " Firedome?" -- Last edit: 2014-01-06 09:15:55 (modell) |

DeSoto Firedome Sportsman Hardtop Coupe , 1956.The large picture is superb.Even if most of these cars were finished in two color schemes they look as beautifull in one color finish as this one . |

[S23], referring only to the Firedome series name; body style codes unused for 1956. |

Coincidentally, an identical car is visible during one of the driving scenes, from the POV of the car in the main picture:![]() |

Watched this movie the other night...superb film, and I don't know why but I've always loved this car! It's sort of your 1950's "Dad's car"...but it's kind of cool too. Wish I had this one. |

It just says 1950's, doesn't it? Vertigo is an excellent movie for 1950's car watching. |

..."Firedome" refers to the hemispherical combustion chambers in the "Hemi" engine... |

While often referred to as Firedome Sportsman Hardtop Coupe on the 'net, in the contemporary brochures they were described as Firedome Two-door Sportsman, it seems. So rather no Hardtop Coupe or Forward Look in our listings (even if they were both)? |

1956 DeSoto Firedome (lower spec model - higher spec was the Fireflite) 2 door Sportsman - Sportsman denotes the higher spec hardtop bodystyle. There was a Seville 2 door or 4 door hardtop as well that was lower spec and available on the Firedome only. Difference between the Sportsman 2 door hardtop and Seville 2 door hardtop is the C pillar trim. -- Last edit: 2025-03-31 21:12:59 |
