1959 DeSoto Firedome

In an attempt to attract buyers Chrysler offered the 1959 Firedome in 26 solid colors and 190 two tone finishes, and a padded dash was standard. By the end of the 1959 model year Chrysler was struggling to find buyers, since rumors circulated that it would phase out the marque. Firedome production ended with the 1959 model year, and for 1960 DeSoto offered only the Fireflite and the Adventurer, and the marque ended soon after the 1961 models appeared.
