I just wanted to pop in and say hello and thank you for allowing me to join what seems to be a very knowledgeable forum. I've been lurking around for a bit and there's a ton of valuable info here. I recently inherited my late father's 49 DeSoto Custom (S13-2) Four Door. I purchased it for him about 25 years ago because his favorite brother had one after the war (the one in my profile picture).

My grandfather and uncles were all Chrysler men for many years. I'm a going to be looking towards this forum as I am going to have a few questions once i get the car out of storage from my father's garage to get it back on the road again. It hasn't run in about 4 years or so but I don't think it will be a hard start as it only has approximately 30,000 original miles and was well cared for until my father could no longer drive it. .....Once again,

Thank You,

Don
