| Description |
This thing was, IMO, the epitome of coolness. I would imagine this car to be brilliant just cruising around in. I love how it looks quite rough, certainly no showpiece! Note missing hub caps, and the metal along the side, as well as rust here and there. Really not what you expect to come across in a UK residential street! Believe it or not, this was an entry level car in the USA in 1956! Pretty massive really. I think it has a rather fetching two tone blue colour! Certainly looks the part. I imagine this car has the 2 speed automatic gearbox. Just imagine driving with that! I think it's had an engine replacement at some time in its life, as these second generation Firedomes had a 4.8 V8 and this one's listed as having a 5.3. Came to the UK in 1999, presumably from the USA. The vehicle details for VSJ 953 are: Date of Liability 01 06 2015 Date of First Registration 01 01 1999 Year of Manufacture 1956 Cylinder Capacity (cc) 5300cc CO₂ Emissions Not Available Fuel Type PETROL Export Marker N Vehicle Status Licence Not Due Vehicle Colour BLUE Vehicle Type Approval Not Available |
