This vehicle is coming to you in the original exterior color “Princess Yellow” that is done just right and shows extremely well, it is paired to a maroon/cream interior that is in mint condition showing very minimal wear throughout. This S14 is powered by the original 236 ci I6 paired to the original fluid drive “semi-automatic” transmission that works extremely well together. This vehicle starts right up with a turn of the key and drives as smooth as silk. According to the owner, this vehicle has new brakes, all new weather-stripping, new top, new top hydraulics, optional bumper guards, light up DeSoto optional dual mirrors and much more. Please call or email us today for more information on this 1950 DeSoto S14 Custom.

The DeSoto Custom is an automobile produced by DeSoto from 1939 until the 1952 model year. While in production, the Custom was DeSoto's top-trim level car, and was offered in a wide array of body styles, including a 7-passenger sedan and the extended-wheelbase Suburban sedans. The Custom shared its engine design with the Deluxe, and were powered by Chrysler's L-head 236.7 six-cylinder engine, delivering 109 bhp (81 kW) at 3,600 rpm. Custom models, along with Deluxe models, produced during the 1946, 1947, 1948 and first half of the 1949 model years used DeSoto's prewar bodies. A fully redesigned Custom was launched in the second half of 1949, along with a redesigned Deluxe, and these cars are referred to as “1949 Second Series” models. In 1950, the Custom range gained DeSoto's first consumer-designed station wagon. The Custom also received DeSoto's first hardtop coupe, which featured pillarless door design and which was trimmed to convertible standards. Standard equipment included two-speed electric windshield wipers, a trunk light and full carpeting.
