    Hey, that “DeSoto’s” grille looks more like a Chrysler 300E grille from what little I can see of it! That’s an even rarer bird!!

    I don’t think he’ll make enough money off a used laptop on e-bay to cover his service fees.

    Depends on whether he sells it as a working item or as a collector’s item.

    Yes, use the catchword “Vintage” in its description by all means!! Ever since ebay that must be THE most overworked word in the whole English language!! Even more than “You know” from teenage kids!!!

    The car on the rack isn’t Cosmo’s DeSoto, it’s some other hapless customer’s car. Cosmo is just there looking for his laptop, and learning he should find a different mechanic.

    That garage must have more bays than I thought.

    Cosmo’s DeSoto almost surely has a Hemi. And what’s the box say on the bench between Irv and Cosmo….does it say “bi valve”? As in a clam?

    No, they discontinued the Hemi in 1958. The 1959 DeSoto had either a 361 or 383 wedge head engine depending on how many horses you ordered.

    ( The Chrysler 300E had the 413 wedge with a high speed cam and two four-barrels. )
