Nice conversion work. It helps having firsthand knowledge of the car too. Well done

As far as first hand knowledge goes, it was so long ago my knowledge of that car was almost useless. I had to use reference photos off the web. My emotional attachment to that car helped a lot and it explains why I did it. Thanks for your interest!

Beautiful work on this, just the right amount of weathering.

Love the Desoto conversion, great job - I am partial to 56 Mopars as I have a real 56 Dodge Custom Royal Lancer in my garage. 

The Moebius 300 kits are great kits too and it looks like there are a lot of minds working overtime with conversions to other models in the range

The NY St Regis is a nice looking car too

Thanks for the kind words,Bill. My 1:1 Desoto was just a really nice car. After it's untimely demise, I found a decent '55 Dodge Coronet sedan for daily transportation. Great cars.
