1960 DeSoto

After following a 1960 DeSoto with its outrageous fins and tail lights on a recent AACA club drive, I had to finish this kit bought last year.  This was the 1974 Johan USA Oldies re-release.  It had quite a bit of flash, and found small parts like the steering wheel to be brittle.  Based on the condition of the box, the kit must have been stored in a hot attic for decades.  I used the tires from the AMT '62 T-bird, mirrors and antenna from my parts box.  There's a black, real '60 Adventurer hardtop for sale locally at a classic car dealership.
