[Closed] John Merritt aka carnutz, a while back you posted pictures of 3 1942 Desoto models...

Here is one of those photos I posted some time ago (pic)

The blue coupe is from Victory Models, the convertible is Conquest and the sedan from Brooklin.

what an awesome shot John...bring em on!

thanks for the info John, great models all 3 of them.

Victory 1942 De Soto Custom Club Coupe

John, I produced this De Soto over 12 years ago. They sold out immediately, and can only be purchased, if you can find one, on the secondary market. It was one of our finest models. and it was mastered by someone in France, whom we used for the first time. He did a masterful job, and I was 100% satisfied with the result. It was my last Victory model.

Victory 1942 De Soto Custom Fifth Avenue Club Coupe & Convertible

Maybe we’ll get a pre 1949 DeSoto Suburban someday in 1/43 scale.

To my knowledge, the long wheelbase model has never been made.

Western did a similiar 1950 Desoto long wheelbase sedan

Here is one appearing on Ebay currently, but not cheap.
There was also a similar 1949 Chrysler Imperial long wheelbase by Western.

Yes, those are quite nice.

But the earlier bodystyle has never been done with the proper long doors and wheelbase.

Is this one with the long doors? Sun Motor Ambulance

Ebay item # 254340859760. But maybe you're looking for something like this 1948 Chrysler Imperial limo which I created. Has the long front doors, long rear doors and the long front clip to accommodate the straight 8 engine. Desotos were done with long front and rear doors but not the long front clip as all were 6 cylinder cars.
