New Old Car

 Yesterday was a long day.  We ventured up North to pick up Far Guy's New Old Car!  What an adventure.   With the help of Andy, Jen , Noah and Adam it was a memorable day!

It is road worthy. 


Adam driving with a huge smile on his face you cannot see because of his mask.



Noah driving.


Jen  driving.

They loaded it up on a car trailer.


Andy trailered it home for us with his pickup. 

It was an uneventful trip home...one strap came loose near Bagley Minnesota...we called them and told them and Andy pulled over and fixed it. 


Jen, Andy and Far Guy.   The new old car safely parked in our yard . 


It is a 1959 Desoto Firesweep 4 door Sedan, built at the Dodge plant.  It was first sold on September 27, 1959  by Nokken & Ryan Motors of Fargo North Dakota. The original New Car Guaranty was included in the paperwork.  The color is either Rose Beige or Morocoo Beige...when we get the Title in the mail we should know the color for sure. 

The entire car seems to be original...It will keep Far Guy busy for a long time. 

It may not be the Willow Green 1959 Desoto Station Wagon he drove in high school but it is close enough.
