Most DeSotos made between 1947 until production of the make ended in 1961 were built at Chrysler’s DeSoto plant located at 8505 Warren Avenue in Dearborn, MI. It appears thar the rubber seals around the door vent windows either completely deteriorated or were removed for replacements but the job was never completed. The car looks amazing after the clean up! With such a great history, I could understand the future owner leaving it just the way it is; but if it were stripped down and given a showroom paint finish, I am sure the car’s original, loving owner would look down and smile with approval!
After the story i became as interested in the owners history as the car. She sounded like a whole lotta lady. Great work as ever guys.
You hit the nail on the head. I bet she was cool as heck!!
❤
As a woman, I understand the Pride she took in that car and maintaining it herself speaks volumes to her Character!! (Too bad grandson SUCKED!!!) I am glad I was taught by my WW2 Era grandpa, on how to build, fix and maintain vehicles.. now I teach MY Sons... 😊
Side vent windows were found on nearly all cars until the mid-‘60s. It was a means to provide ventilation to the passengers. Air conditioning in cars of that era was almost unheard of and was only available in the most luxury brands. Vent windows were a blessing on hot summer days.
what a unique car! the story is heartbreaking tho, from a deeply loved car to a forgotten one... i really hope this beauty will find someone who will love it as much as the original owner. amazing attention to detail, 10/10.
I would have thought the kid would want something of his grandmother's that she cared about so much. So much for this younger all-about-me generation!
Oh believe me there are a lot of people who would want this car and take care of it. Excellent detail job.
@@richardcline1337Grandma might have been an ass to him all his life, who knows.
That is not true that guy was just an A hole most of us would have cherished it or at least maintained it until one of our next of kin comes along.@@richardcline1337
Spectacular! These golden oldies really were pieces of art. Thanks for bringing this girl back to her former glory.
What a beautiful DeSoto. I saw a Borgward Isabella in the car collection.. I would love to see you guys work your magic on that vehicle! Love your channel, I've watched all your detailings!
Me too, my father in Moçambique had one, he bring the Borgward to Portugal.
This is my buddy's collection! He's an awesome guy with one of the coolest collections out there. I'd love to see that Isetta cleaned up as well as the NSU Sport Prinz!
Agreed! Super good dude with an amazing collection. I've bought 3 of my cars from him and it's always great seeing what else he's found.
Damn! You guys hit the detailers' jackpot! Can't wait ti see how this DeSoto cleans up.
That warehouse of cars is a treasure trove of content! You folks hit the jackpot! At a casual glance, I saw an old Vauxhall, a Borgward, an 1950s-1960s Bentley S-series, and lots of interesting finds. You now have content for YEARS of videos! I recall the DeSoto was last sold in the US in 1961. I imagine it was made wherever they made Plymouths, Dodges, and Chryslers. One of the "Marx Brothers", Groucho, was famous for making DeSoto commercials. Continued good health and good luck to all of you!
DeSotos were often sold at Plymouth dealerships as an upgrade to the low-priced Plymouth.
My mom told the story of her brother, my Uncle Jim, who as a small child in the 1950s, thought there was a car called the “Desotaplimmadilla.” He got that from listening to Groucho Marx on the radio saying “Be sure to visit your DeSoto-Plymouth dealer.”
Dodge dealers and Chrysler dealers also sold Plymouths.
@JTabarlet that's a funny story😅
For your next choice from the collection, I nominate the '50s BMW Isetta 300. Three-wheel fun.😀
With all those cars you showed it looks like you've got a never-ending supply of cars to detail for your channel. 👍
Don’t you know with 300k miles everyone in town knew that car and that inseparable, remarkable lady.
Shame her grandson didn’t have her love of the car, but no doubt after your beautiful detailing she’ll find a wonderful home
Wow, another great job, the fabric in the interior cleaned up well and the DeSoto really looks great, I love the backstory… Although I can see where the Grandson might have been like: “Damn, that’s a lot of car.” I am excited to see the videos from this collection! The SAAB Sonnet is awesome… beautiful old Mercedes… The whole collection looks pretty incredible!
That Borgward Isabella would be interesting to see or that BMW Isetta
DeSotos were built in Detroit since they were a Chrysler make. The last model year for DeSoto was 1961.
The South African DeSoto Diplomat a rebadged 1962 Dodge Dart continued until 1964

Wow,im already overwhelmed at what is there,and the video just started, thumbs up, great video 👍
So much to choose from and what we showed is only about 10% of the collection 😅😳
I remember my parents and I going out looking at new cars in the late 40's and early 50's, and this car was one of them. Such memories (sigh).
I love 40's & 50's cars. Those bodylines are the best. I just wish I could afford a car from that time period.
That Grille and Parking Lights looks fabulous with the Chrome!,
Really glad you get to do these old cars and restore them to their glory. The 47 DeSoto was special, and quite a historic vehicle after WWII.
Nice work on this Classic DeSoto...and as already mentioned, the collection that has appeared for you to choose from...I cannot wait to see some of these cars saved and made right again...im a car guy, and I'm so happy to see you share this passion for saving some, and let's be honest, cars that might not deserve saving, but you do it anyways...the story of this car, being given away by, I guess someone who doesn't care about cars, makes me appreciate your love for old cars as well...#shineon
Back in the day, turn signals could be added as an aftermarket item. Hand signals were still in use back then.
Enjoyed video and the effort you both put in to bringing the car back to life. I would like to see you clean up the white Jaguar MKX. Fingers crossed 🤞
So many goodies for you guys! Can’t wait! Thanks Brothers! Take care! Eddie
Love watching these videos of how you guys use the new tactics to clean. For example, I never thought to use a steamer to clean the seat tracks that are always a challenge. You guys are amazing!
Dearborn Michigan pops into my head first. My dad actually loved these cars for years we had a 57 DeSoto convertible in out back yard.
Lovely work guys your preserving pieces of history keep up the good work
Amazing that she managed to do all the work on the car, even if the body work wasn't spot on. Those windows were common back before the 1960's. My dad owned a 1956 Ford Fairlane. It was red and white with tuck-n-roll upholstery (red), with those wing type windows.
Another great job! I'd love to see you detail the Isetta, the NSU Prince, the Isabella, and that red Holden. I'm sure there are others but those stood out first to me. Last model year for DeSoto was 1961.
The red car was a '57/58 Vauxhall Victor F series. GM made...like Holden.
Just on a quick glance a smorgasbord of German makes-NSU Prinz, Isetta ,Borgward Isabella coupe,
and Mercedes-Benz. Extraordinary find !
I'd love to see that BMW Isetta! It's a cool little car with a little known history
Love your videos you are putting out man that old Studebaker looks pretty good keep up the good work don't stop
Hate to say it BUT that lady's grandson was a FOOL for not keeping that Desoto. That is a beautiful piece of automobile engineering. And the fact that she worked on it herself is fabulous. When I was growing up, a elderly widow lady lived 2 houses up. She had a beautiful 1960's Plymouth sedan, (not sure of the model), that was a soft pink pearl with a white vinyl hardtop. Her late husband had left the car to her and it was rarely driven. After she passed, her nephew inherited the car, tried driving it at highway speed and blew the engine. It wasn't used to that because Mrs. Sobieski didn't drive. She had my dad drive it about once a month for her but other than that it sat in her garage. With a the engine blown, the nephew ended up sell "Pearl" to a salvage yard. My dad was so mad because he wanted the car and was going to fix her up. Such a waste.
You should clean up the Borgward Isabella coupe. Has been my favourite car for many years
As always, an incredible job! Have you ever considered introducing dry ice cleaning as part of your services?
There seem to be enough cars there to start a museum. One part domestic and one part import. Good luck with the rest of them. I can't wait to see what's up next!
After the Isetta(s), do the Borgward Isabella.
I just saw a BMW Isetta sitting in amongst all these cars. This would be a great car for you to detail and set up for restoration.
I remember the owner of the farm where my family spend hollidays in 1973 in Moçambique, driving that beautiful Black De Soto Diplomat, 50 years ago. Love your work, hug from Portugal.
Beautiful car , a shame the grandson just sold it. Check out the brass top radiation tank , quality 👍. Great job
Man what a knucklehead grandson to turn his back on a gem like this. No way could I do that.
When I was a young boy long ago, I remember my babysitter having one of these and my fascination with the starter push button.
Hey guys amazing job y’all did!!! Keep up the great work can’t wait to see what y’all do next
Great job as always guys.
Beauty, I'm sure it wouldn't take much to get that flathead to fire up ! Nice job!!
The chrome and brightwork are in amazing condition!
Great job! What a beautiful old car!
What a beauty ! Lovely curbs and purple color
Awesome outcome 👏
Fabulous job guys. Really enjoy your videos down here in Queensland Australia what a beautiful car...
I adore this car. If my grandmother gave me this car, I would have been cherishing it and I'd still have it. What a shame that our grandson was so ungrateful, and indifferent.
It really shines up like a new penny.
You guys did this amazing piece of Americana justice. Wonderful work
Shined up like a classy diamond. Great job
Incredible job guys!
I love this car. Can’t wait to learn more about it and her owner. You guys rule the detailing world.
Sadly, this old classic will probably get bought by somebody that could care less about it as a classic car and turn it into a rat rod or hot rod. I hope it doesn't happen but that body style seems to be what these people that do that want to find.
It belongs to a friend of mine . I bought it shortly after this video came out and the plan is to keep it original as can be . It's too nice to ratrod it .
Love the old cars.❤
My father had a 1947 Plymouth 4-dr Deluxe which was quite similar to the DeSoto and Chryslers of of same period. Few memories and observations: new autos during the immediate post-war period were hard to come by unless “you knew someone”; the turn signals, as was the side mirror, were a later after market add on; didn’t see it on this DeSoto but, the Plymouth had a lever under the center of the dash that opened a cooling vent just ahead of the outside windshield; heater was an option as was a six or eight tube MOPSR am radio. Great old cars. Thanks for the memories and a great presentation.
That's truly a unique car. So classy. Great job guys.
Borgward Isabella at 1.09. One of my all time favourive cars.
Spectacular and fabulous job
What an amazing beauty !
WOW Fantastic transformation 🙌🙌🙌🙌
Beautiful Car!! Beautiful Job!
Amazing!! BRAVO!!
Uma verdadeira relíquia
Q maravilha...parabéns pelo achado..ficou mto bom...
Outstanding job as usual!!! I would love to own that cruise ship for the family 😘
Did the lady a real justice cleaning her pride and joy.
Top vlog.
such a great job on this one!!!!
Wow! Another superb detailing job from your team! I believe Chrysler stopped producing the De Soto marque in 1961.
There are two rarities in this amazing collection I'd love you to tackle:
A Borgward Isabella Coupe A Vauxhall Victor Saloon/Sedan. The former is from a small German maker,
the latter from GM's British arm.
If you could take on any of the Jaguars as well, you'll make this British enthusiast very happy.
Awesome detailing!
Beautiful job looks really good 😊💯
I’m sure she’s looking down and smiling, awesome job guys 😁👍❤️
In that garage it looks like a Griswold family big green staiton wagon. I'd like to see you guys detail that one.
Un trabajo magnífico, estoy segura que allá donde quiera que esté, la antigua dueña estará encantada por el cuidado que habéis puesto en su querido automovil
Wow, you can tell that the lady who owned this car loved it very much! It is a lovely old car!
Handbrake is the same on my old 66 GMC 3/4 ton........except positioned horizontal under the steering column.
Little windows in the side front windows were called no-drafts by my Dad.
Love the channel.
Absolutely gorgeous.
Hey guys detail the Isabella Coupe the black car. I never seen or heard of it before 😊
Superb video! Can't wait to see more from that location.
One question...why not just roll the car forward to get hard to reach top sections of the tire and wheel? I realize that doesn't help getting the inner wheel arch but would complete the tire/wheel.
Did I spot a Rolls-Royce in that collection? If so, that would be an awesome detailing job.
Too many fun or unique cars to detail.
You guys always seem to find these interesting barn finds. now this one is kind of like the mother lode. It’s going to be hard to top this one. I’ve got a lot of videos to look forward too! 👍
Wow man you guys are doing some awesome work making older vehicles relevant and helping to restore them.i have a 1954 chevrolet truck that could use your touch!
That old lead paint cleans up well
Thank you for sharing and your APPRECIATION to your subscribers
Borgward Isabella would be brilliant to see an ahead of its time classic German car
Wow, you made that old girl look like new again. Great job guys. 😎👌👍
My grandfather used to have a 4 door version of this car. Rode really smooth when he had it... more than 55 years ago now.
Super gemacht. Schönes Teil.
There is a rubber seal missing. You can try Steele rubber in North Carolina for a replacement.
WOW !!! WHAT A THING TO DO TO YOUR GRANDMA ,,I KNOW HOW SHE FEELS I LOVE MY 1958 DODGE CUSTOM ROYALE SWEEP WINGS ,, AND 1978 BUICK.. I TO WOULD ROLL IN MY GRAVE KNOWING SOME ONE SET IT A SIDE TO ROT.. MY SON MAX 8 AND I LOVE YOUR WORK AND CHANNEL.....GRAND MA WOULD LOVE YOU GUYS,, GREAT JOB!!!!
