I realize (after I put this together) we did this 6-8 months ago but here is a bit more of the   1952 DeSoto Firedome 4dr Sedan (Franklin Mint)

The DeSoto Firedome was a full-size automobile produced between 1952 and 1959 by DeSoto automobiles, a division of the Chrysler Corporation.

The nameplate was borrowed from the marketing term used to offer Chrysler's Hemi V8 engine in a DeSoto product, offering the performance offered by the Chrysler brand but in the more affordable DeSoto brand.
