G'day Sam.

I can't help you much with your parts, but may be able to help with any queries you have as I am into the restoration of a 1930 Dodge Brothers DC 8.

I do have a mate who has a DeSoto 8 about the same vintage. His is a sedan.

My car was an absolute basket case and it has taken me years to source parts I needed but now have most of what I need.

My Dodge and your DeSoto are essentially the same car. Minor differences only.

Mine has a roadster body made in Australia by T.Richards of Adelaide. It has a wooden framework whereas yours, I presume, is American or Canadian and would have a steel framed body made by Budd.

My email is < mini1132@yahoo.com.au >

Both Dodges and DeSoto 8 cylinder cars are scarce.

All the best with your restoration.

Cheers.

Jim.

P.S. I presume you are in the U.S.
