    Cool! Really liked the color of the interior...I think I would have to find a way to save those oil tags and paint it :D

    I think it was well thought out and done sort of a throw back to the 40's way of building a car.

    That DeSoto wagon is featured in and on the cover of the April 2011 Hot Rod magazine.
    Very cool old school/new wagon.

    Yeah, I too have trouble with the 'unfinished' look. I want to drive a car that looks nice, not one that looks like it sat in a yard for 3 decades. Just my personal taste.......will admit that it makes the car more 'arty' if you know what I mean.

    Not having a garage, the appeal of not having to worry about polishing and cleaning the outside really appeals to me. I also just like the old patina look. But then, I have a house full of old antiques, so I guess it's just my taste...

    I've had show cars in the past. It was so much work to keep them nice, and every little scratch would bug the heck out of me. Guess maybe this is just be rebelling...:dance:
