1956 DeSoto Firedome -The Forward Look DeSoto

Pinky D (a.k.a. Pinky DeSoto) is a 1956 DeSoto Firedome Sedan located in Washington State. This car was purchased from the estate of my late cousin, Don Puvogel. Don was an avid car collector, at one time owning over 70 vehicles. I had not thought of purchasing any of the cars from the estate, until my wife said "I like that pink car" . "The pink DeSoto, or the pink Plymouth, I asked?" She said "The DeSoto", and long story short, we purchased it.
